Though the group's speedy, full-frontal assault laid the groundwork for the faster-and-louder generation of punks to come, the guitar interplay of Greg Ginn and Dez Cadena is still melodic, and often even hook-filled.The songs, delivered in an impassioned rant by a young Henry Rollins, are classic Cal-punk, mocking American complacency ("Six Pack," "TV Party") with a winning combination of anger and satire, as well as an ingratiating sense of structure. Also included on the disc is the early, pre-Rollins EP JEALOUS AGAIN, on which the band similarly rages against the machine, though the attack is a bit less refined. DAMAGED is an American punk classic, and the cornerstone of any punk collection.

Q (1/96, p.146) - 3 Stars - Good - "...[DAMAGED] catches them at the point where Exploited-style ramalams like `TV Party' were giving way for tricksier, more obtuse material..." Mojo (Publisher) (3/03, p.76) - Ranked #18 in Mojo's "Top 50 Punk Albums" - "...This is the album that screams and shimmers with fury, nihilism, claustrophobia and excess..." Mojo (Publisher) (3/01, p.114) - "...Features the debut of new vocalist Henry Rollins....For 45 minutes he screams until his innards dilate, then screams some more..."
