The second video/single from The Damned’s forthcoming rock covers album, NOT LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE, is out now. The track “See Emily Play” is a vibrant reinterpretation of Pink Floyd’s psychedelic classic and is accompanied by a colorful video.
Sung by guitarist Captain Sensible, this new cover blends the band’s signature punk energy with the kaleidoscopic spirit of the original.
NOT LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE is dedicated to the memory of Brian James, the band’s founding guitarist, who passed away earlier this year on March 6th. The album is due out on January 23rd via earMUSIC, distributed by BFD/The Orchard in North America.
Every song on the new album has been carefully curated by the band and is a tribute to their late guitarist and his influences. The offering was recorded in a blistering five days of emotion and creative fire at Revolver Studio in Los Angeles.
NOT LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE finds The Damned – Dave Vanian on vocals, Captain Sensible on guitar, Rat Scabies on drums, Paul Gray on bass and joined by longtime keyboardist Monty Oxymoron – reconnecting with the raw energy that started it all.
The album marks the first time in 40 years that Rat Scabies has returned to the studio with the band. To pre-order/pre-save NOT LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE, please click here.
