10.02.2023 The countdown is on ... 23.12.2022 06.11.2022 A little over a year ago, we were able to celebrate our live premiere at the 1st Upper Saw Festival - an incredible evening. All the more we are excited that we are invited again for next year and then of course we can present the songs of the new CD. The place will be trembling - promised! 04.11.2022 Good news: our screamer is feeling better from day to day and so we can slowly start with the badly missed gigs again. We will start in 3 weeks, together with CROSSING SABBATH at the reopening of the Luftraum, the "Metal Is Forever"-club in Fürstenfeldbruck. This will surely be a heavy party and an awesome reunion with many faces from the community ... hell yeah! 15.10.2022 During the compulsory break, a small retrospective offers itself, for example with a photo series of the past Wellesweiler Open Air:  03.10.2022 High time for a small update on the current situation. In the meantime, word has spread that our Bobbes had to undergo a very serious operation in August. Fortunately, everything seems to be over now and Bobbes is getting better day by day. However, in order not to endanger the further healing process, he must continue to avoid any exertion and stress in the coming weeks. For this reason BLACK & DAMNED will probably not be able to play any more gigs this year. The planning for 2023 is already in full swing - we will keep you up to date. 27.08.2022 And we were really looking forward to it ... but health comes first: Due to an urgently needed operation of a band member, we unfortunately have to cancel the gigs until October - so sorry! 14.08.2022 Wellesweiler - what an awesome evening. It was an honor for us to be there. Thanks to all from the Orga-Team and all visitors - you were simply amazing !!! Now it's time for a short holiday break before the next festival in Obertraubling on 10.09. - we are really looking forward to it. 17.07.2022 The first OpenAir of the year is behind us. What can we say: It was an honor to be part of the "Rock dein Leben-Festival" and rock out for you. Special thanks to Vitali Schogenov (20Dark7), who replaced Axel on the drums. Here are some nice impressions of the gig:  27.06.2022 The first two gigs this year are over and what can we say - it was incredible fun to finally rock out on stage in front of horny metalheads again, because that's what it's all about: Celebrating fat parties together with you. Now we continue with 4 festivals, the first two "open air". Are you ready? In any case, we are already absolutely hot for you!!!     13.06.2022 "Dreamhunter"-video shoot part 2    22.05.2022 Yesterday was the 1st video shoot for "Dreamhunter" with the band - part 2 with actors will follow soon. Micha, our man for the moving pictures, has of course worked out a script with a horny story - it's in progress ...   20.05.2022 The mix of the new album "Servants Of The Devil" is now in the can. Achim Köhler has done a great job again - we are thrilled. It's a pity that we can't publish any samples at the moment, but we're really looking forward to it. 08.04.2022 High time for an update on what is to come: - The recordings of the second CD are finished! - The mixing & mastering with Achim Köhler has started! - The CD cover and the booklet artwork are finished! - The first video is finished! - The shooting for the second video is in the starting blocks! - 3 live shows are already booked! Only ... there is still nothing to hear or see officially from the second CD :-( A little patience is still needed - we also can hardly wait :-)
15.03.2022 Today the next step to the second Black & Damned CD was made. Photo session for the booklet with Bobbes ... ... 
20.11.2021 Small intermediate update: After there will be no concerts with us in the near future for known reasons - a clear no to exclusions - we are now fully dedicated to the new album.

We will keep you in the loop - be excited ... 13.10.2021 Today a small selection of photos from the Metal Is Forever fan meeting. And when there's such a fantastic atmosphere at a gig, even the wrong band banner in the background doesn't bother much :-)  18.10.2021 There are evenings you never forget - the "Metal Is Forever" fan club meeting last weekend is definitely one of them. What an incredible party! A huge thank you to everyone who made it possible and helped celebrating. It was an honor to have been a part of it. More pictures will follow.  Since Saturday, the new shirt in "Dark-Camouflage" is also available - this young lady already has:   Detailed information on ordering at office@blackanddamned.com. 13.10.2021 Last Saturday, the long wait was finally over and BLACK & DAMNED were where they definitely belong - on stage - hell yeah !!!

We proudly present our new bassplayer Pappe Lee. Our former bass player Ali couldn't keep up with our speed and success and asked that we fill his position with a new bass player. Well, we followed his request and are happy to welcome good Pappe to the B&D family. With Pappe we will build up our live presence to a killer show and have already started working with him on the new album. It's on - beware of the B&D-Machine!!!  20.05.2021 Behind the scenes - great memories of the video shoots last year.

Rock of Angels Records! The year is 2020, a virus paralyzes us all and everything stands still. But suddenly and out of nowhere a new band makes its way into the limelight: BLACK & DAMNED ... damned, rising out of the dark and armed with the steely weapons of pure Heavy Metal! The two damned ones and prisoners of their passion are Michael Vetter (Ex-PUMP) with his sixstring axe and Roland "Bobbes" Seidel (IHRESGLEICHEN), who's proclaiming his messages on the microphone. And in their damnation, these two lost souls of the music industry have merged into a glowing and unstoppable unit. For their (soon to be announced and presented) first studio work, Axel Winkler (IHRESGLEICHEN) was hired for the drums and Axel Mackenrott (MASTERPLAN) handled the keys. And with Ali Gözübüyük (BIONIC ANGELS) as the fighter on bass and Aki Reissmann (PUMP) who swings the axe of rhythm, the army of darkness was completed and is now ready to be unleashed to the world of Metal! Are you prepared to enter the dark with these damned guys? Today we proudly announce the signing of a multi-album deal with BLACK & DAMNED and welcome the band in the ROAR! Rock of Angels family.
