"So, Who's Paranoid?" is the tenth studio album by the English punk rock band The Damned, released in November 2008. This album marked the band's return after a seven-year hiatus, with a sound that largely harkens back to their 1980s gothic rock era, blending dark, atmospheric elements with their signature punk energy.
The album was self-funded by the band and released through their own label, English Channel. It features a mix of high-energy tracks and more introspective, atmospheric moments, characteristic of their gothic influence during the '80s. The sound is raw but polished, with the band's usual blend of punk rock aggression and eerie, haunting melodies.
*So, Who's Paranoid?* was well-received by long-time fans, although it did not achieve significant commercial success. The album's release was a celebration of the band's legacy, offering a mix of nostalgia and fresh material that showed The Damned still had the creative spark and energy to make new music. Despite being a little under the radar compared to their earlier works, *So, Who's Paranoid?* remains a noteworthy addition to The Damned's discography, especially for fans of their gothic and post-punk styles.
