Being a huge fan of the DAMNED, I must seek out anything DAMNED-related. Especially anything pre-80s, and even more especially anything to do with BRIAN JAMES. His songwriting and guitar chops is what made "Damned Damned Damned" one the best punk albums ever. TANZ DER YOUTH was started by JAMES after he left the DAMNED in 1978; That's all I needed to hear. So I tracked down this single, and well, it's reminiscent of the dark serious British punk bands like the STRANGLERS and MAGAZINE but not really very good. OK at best. TANZ DER YOUTH only made one single. Eventually JAMES would go on to found LORDS OF THE NEW CHURCH with Stiv Bators.
