In 1989, David Vanian vocalist with UK Punk band The Damned quit to form a new band, taking with him fellow band members Roman Jugg and Bryn Merrick. The Phantom Chords was born. Playing a mix of covers and original music cowritten by Vanian and Jugg, the music was inspired by a shared love of 30s, 40s and 50s film music, merged with 60s sevenpiece, twangy guitar bands and jazzy rock n roll instrumentals. For the first time, this book tells the fascinating story of Dave Vanians beloved project The Phantom Chords. The story begins in 1983 with Vanians solo career, and covers the Naz Nomad The Nightmares sideproject and his involvement in The Damned. From 1990 to 2003 The Phantom Chords recorded three fulllength albums and two singles, toured up and down the UK and found audiences in Europe and the USA. Ultimately, they were doomed to fail and finally disbanded. This biography stands as a testimony to The Phantom Chords, and is written by one of the bands most avid fans.
