In 1980/1981, THE DAMNED went to Rockfield for a series of sessions that eventually became The Black Album, The Friday 13th EP & Strawberries. Their time there produced some of THE DAMNED’s greatest musical moments and memorable stories of horses, cows, vampires, rifles and Lemmy.

In 2019 THE DAMNED returned to Rockfield Studios to record their first new music since 2018’s Top Ten Evil Spirits album. The line-up included three out of the four THE DAMNED members that were at the original sessions – David Vanian, Captain Sensible and Paul Gray. There was also Monty Oxymoron on keyboards and Pinch on drums. Unbeknown to the band, this was to be the last recording with the long-time drummer Pinch, who departed THE DAMNED after their legendary show at The London Palladium, last Halloween.

Tom Dalgety (Royal Blood, Rammstein, Ghost) took over the producer duties for the first time, and mixed the tracks at his studio in Bath.
