I say “probable” because I am not going to parse the matter any further. If you had heard the song with the line “I raise my hand against it all” then you’d understand, I suspect. I think that even the cover art, which appears to be a photograph of a man blowing out his brains in an empty room somewhere, would give you an inkling of just how cool and frightening and life-giving Damage Done really is. But whatever, man. I don’t do this very often, but there are times when it’s appropriate, and this is one of them. This album deserves your total attention for as long as it takes you to start irrationally loving it with all your heart and soul. Any year-end list on which it doesn’t appear is a total joke. It’s got the twin-guitar thing going for it just like Thin Lizzy did. Just go out and buy the damned thing. We’ll see you next week.
