about

Damn The Torpedoes realise people get bored easily. Hell, they get bored themselves. Better to get straight to the point, and quick.

Damn The Torpedoes specialise in garage punk power-pop rocknroll, focusing on short sharp shots of melodic sing-along simplicity. Born from a desire to play stripped-down rock, and to explore their 'pop sensibilities', Damn The Torpedoes are the coming-together of simple-minded like-minded blokes Wally, Ando and Dick.
