New Song from The Damned Things



The Damned Things (you know- the crazy mash up Every Time I Die, Anthrax and Fall Out Boy) have announced their new album Ironiclast will be available on December 14th. Word on the street says it's amazing and after seeing the band's second performance ever, there's no debating that claim over here.

There are a few of the new tracks on the band's MySpace, but the latest song "Little Darling" can be heard over at AbsolutePunk. Keith comments on the song:
"Little Darling" may have been the most instinctually oriented song on the record as far as the lyric writing was concerned. I remember when Joe and Rob and I sat down to go over possible melodies, the first line was the "example" we gave as to the vocal cadence of the verse. I remember saying "ok, so something that SOUNDS like 'little darling'" and went to the drawing board. After nothing really felt right, I realized that those two words were perfect from the beginning. It set the tone for the entire rest of the song which is essentially just a letter of apology for being so absent from certain peoples lives.
A second song "Friday Night (Going Down In Flames)" can be downloaded for free via Facebook and for another taste, check out the song "We've Got A Situation Here" below (which is available for download on iTunes):



Just for kicks, see how the guys look live! These photos are from The Borderline in London back in June:
