Damn Those Eyes / Never Mind The Botox

The Boys release a double A-sided limited-edition vinyl single on Damaged Goods Records. ‘Damn Those Eyes’ and ‘Never Mind the Botox’ were recorded last year at The Planet Of Noise Studio in Limmared, Sweden.  Both songs are taken from The Boys sixth official studio album to be released December 2026.  

Along with the Sex Pistols, Clash and The Damned, The Boys were part of the first wave of the mid-1970s UK punk explosion. Armed with an arsenal of killer Steel/Dangerfield songs The Boys became the first UK punk band to sign an album deal in January 1977. Highly regarded by the music press and their contemporaries, their well-crafted songs, together with Steel and Dangerfield’s love of harmonies, led to them being described as ‘The Beatles of Punk’ but they could (and should) just as deservedly have been compared to the Ramones ­– fast, alternately brattish and tongue-in-cheek, and gloriously anthemic.  

The new single features original founding members and songwriting team Matt Dangerfield and Casino Steel, along with long time members Chips Kiesbye and Kent Norberg (from mega Swedish band Sator) & Martin H-Son (ex-Backstreet Girls).  Renowned international filmmaker, and ex bass player from The Crybabys, Danny Garcia makes a guest appearance on ‘Never Mind the Botox’ as well as providing promo videos for both songs.
