Title: Lambchop's new album
Post by: TynansAnger on 15 Aug 2006, 13:17

Is anyone else amused by the fact that Lambchop's new album is titled Damaged? It's a reference to a reference. Underground band steals an album title from the beatles, and now an indie band steals a title from an underground band. I'm giddy with excitement.

The Replacemenrts were ballsy by naming their album Let it Be, after the Bealtes. Now, Lambchop is naming thier album damaged, the same name as Black Flag's first album.

Anyway, Damaged refers to Kurt Wagner's mouth (ravaged by a cyst) and his personal life, not referring to Black Flag. I got a little too overambition in my music knowldge there.

Are you entirely certain they deliberately lifted the name of the album from Black Flag?  It's not that unusual a word.  A simple search of the Oracle (http://www.allmusic.com) shows several albums named Damaged, plus several more called Damage.  Are you sure it's not just that Lambchop weren't feeling particularly imaginative when it came time to name the album?

Sounds like shit to me. I mean did he actually come out and say "I'm referencing Black Flag"?

Also: wjhy would he reference Black Flag? I was certain Lambchop were off on a different spectrum entirely.

Guys, this isn't big news. Lambchop's already been down that "naming their new record after a classic record" raod, as they have an album called Thriller already. Great band, btw.
