The second you hit play on DAMNAGE’s “Wild In The Streets”, the world falls away. What fills the void is a roaring, blood-pumping tribute to punk’s past, set ablaze for the present. This isn’t your average cover, it’s raw, furious, and ready to burn it all down.
Originally penned by Garland Jeffreys and made infamous by the Circle Jerks, “Wild In The Streets” is a punk staple and DAMNAGE treat it with equal parts reverence and rebellion. Their version features none other than Greg Hetson (Circle Jerks, Bad Religion) on guitar, adding legacy weight to an already heavyweight track. The result is a thunderous blend of old-school defiance and new-school fire.

Recorded live in just a few hours at Hetson’s L.A. studio, the track is unfiltered, unpolished, and all the better for it. Every strum and shout is soaked in sweat and adrenaline. The guitars snarl, the drums pound, and the vocals swing between snarling chants and cathartic release, which captures the chaos of a DAMNAGE live set and bottling it for your speakers.
And yet, it never feels like pure nostalgia. DAMNAGE reimagine the song without losing its soul, dragging it through distortion and rage into today’s fractured world. It’s a rallying cry for anyone who’s ever felt trapped, unheard, or on the edge of revolt.
