Two years after their debut and a year after they'd split up, the Damned became the first punk band to make a comeback. Their timing was great; two years being a very long time on the UK music scene, a "second wave" of punk was getting underway. The Damned shocked critics and fans alike by releasing an album as good as their first, DAMNED DAMNED DAMNED.
Kicking off with the cynical "Love Song," MACHINE GUN ETIQUETTE is a reflection of the best that late '70s punk could offer. Driving Rat Scabies beats, a little guitar mastery, and some '60's flashbacks (witness the percussion on "Anti Pope"--surely there's a Stones classic in their somewhere?). Catch the pretty piano intro on "Melody Lee" which morphs into punk perfection, while in contrast "Noise Noise Noise" is reminiscent of Buzzcock's "Noise Annoys," with kicking drums. Covers include MC5's "Looking at You," The Sweet's "Ballroom Blitz" (with Motorhead's Lemmy on bass), and a strange version of Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit."
2007 reissue of the legendary classic from the Damned released in a mini LP sleeve as part of Ace Records' Hip Pocket series. Possibly the most popular Damned album, Machine Gun Etiquette was their third album originally released in 1979. Ace. 2007.
Includes liner notes by Jack Rabid.
Digitally remastered by Adam Skeaping & Roger Armstrong.
The Damned: Dave Vanian (vocals); Captain Sensible (guitar); Algy Ward (bass); Rat Scabies (drums).
Producers: Roger Armstrong, The Damned, Ed Hollis, All Sorts Of People.

| | Ben Folds Songs For Silverman CD (2005) DualDisc
Machine Gun Etiquette CD music
$16.69  
This is a DualDisc, which contains a CD on one side of the disc and a DVD on the other.
Given his 2004 collaboration with William Shatner and his penchant for borderline-novelty tunes ("Army" and "Rockin' the Suburbs"), some might expect Ben Folds's second solo record, SONGS FOR SILVERMAN, to bask in outright silliness. While "Jesusland" contains sparkling moments of unsubtle irony ("beautiful McMansions on a hill"), the tune is actually a piercing, and often quite affectionate, appraisal of American hypocrisy, adorned by sweet melodies and soaring strings. And so it goes with SONGS FOR SILVERMAN, a thoroughly sober album overflowing with the sort of contemplative insight and orchestral, unforgettable ...
| | Fall Imperial Wax Solvent CD (2008)
Machine Gun Etiquette music CDs
$9.99
2008 release from Mark E. Smith and his ever-changing line-up of The Fall. Though band members have come and gone in the band, Mark E. Smith has managed to maintain a clear and focused musical vision. There's no other band quite like The Fall and once you've heard them, you'll never forget them. Smith has never been one to hold back on releasing new music and The Fall usually release six albums in the same span of time that a less interesting band will release one album and a single! Sanctuary.
Recorded after a tour that found leader/vocalist/lyricist Mark E. Smith handing out his umpteenth set of pink-slips and changing about half the band, Imperial Wax Solvent is a surprisingly vital and solid release, benefiting from a hungry young band under the guidance of a veteran who is inspired, jaded, and often sounds twice as hungry as the young bucks. After getting the artful, "difficult" number out of the way ("Alton ...

Machine Gun Etiquette songs
$8.25
Relaxing and sophisticated; smooth jazz guitarist, Ken Massey, makes his jazz debut as a solo artist with the release of Autumn In Baltimore. A well produced and well written series of smooth jazz compositions with Ken’s guitar singing melodies that will leave you wanting more. Ken shows his maturity in this release by taking the hard edge off of his rock chops and playing a clean jazz guitar style. Ken reaches back to his classical roots and uses his nylon string guitar on Billy Dee. He explores his blues based British Invasion influences on Oak Manor, experiments a bit by using a steel string acoustic passed through a jazz chorus on Park Plaza and a more straight ahead jazz style on the title track, Autumn In Baltimore. While Autumn In Baltimore is his first solo release, Ken is no stranger to the music business. He began his musical career in 1970, while still attending high school. Influenced by the music of guitarists Eric Clapton, Wes Montgomery, Andres Segovia ...
