Damien Done is an American post-punk/gothic rock band from Ann Arbor, Michigan.[1][3][5] Formed in Gainesville, Florida in 2002 as a semi-eponymously-named solo project by frontman Damien Moyal,[6][7] the group has since been expanded to include other band members and co-songwriters.[8][9] The current lineup features Moyal (vocals, guitar, synthesizer, drum programming), Laura Jane Leonard (bass guitar) and Tyler Kane (guitar, bass guitar).[10]

Damien Done originally formed under the name Rubbers and recorded its debut EP, Love Thongs, in 2003. Scheduled for release through Belgian record label Good Life Recordings, the EP was ultimately shelved for thirteen years until it was picked up by German record label Demons Run Amok Entertainment, and released under the title Stay Black in 2016.

After a series of singles, the band followed-up with its first full-length album, Charm Offensive, released by American record label Mind Over Matter Records in 2018. Damien Done underwent several line-up changes and in 2020 released two EPs: Baby, Don't Hearse Me and To Night, both also on Mind Over Matter Records. The band's second full-length album, Total Power, was released through Mind Over Matter Records and Protagonist Music in 2023.[11]
