Phantasmagoria era shirts were a bit fancy Dan to people like me who couldn't pull the look off -Cap's chicken suit?
I think that album is their most criminally under-rated work, the singles sold well, but Sanctum Sanctorum is an iconic piece of music in my book amongst an album where every song is a gem.
The truth is that The Damned could have been butt-naked for all I care(in fact Cap often was)but they have always been a magnificent band in all their guises.
They're Deffo National Treasures

I think the frilly shirts, at this time, were forced upon them by the record label who wanted a uniform look for the big tour!
In this clip, the only nice shirt is Vanians & he was wearing them from Day 1!

This was at The Town & Country Club (as it was called back then) in Kentish Town, London.
