Damned is a studio album by Swedish hardcore punk band Wolfbrigade, released on 23 April 2012 via Southern Lord Records.
Reception
Damned was described by Natalie Zed in About.com as hardcore with a "distinctly metallic flavour", which provided "plenty of satisfying breakdowns and unrelenting aggression paired with beefy, muscular riffs [that] swing between dirty punk, classic hardcore and the odd bit of death metal." Pitchfork's Kim Kelly praised the album as "fast and deadly" and "another worthy addition to their rock-solid catalog". Both Zed and Kelly drew attention to the melodic nature of the band's more experimental track, "Ride the Steel".
