The discography of Damien Done, an American post-punk / gothic rock band, includes two studio albums, four extended plays, five internet compilation extended plays, fourteen singles and eight music videos.[1][2]

The band recorded its debut EP, Love Thongs, in September 2003, which was scheduled for release through Belgian record label Good Life Recordings in early 2004; the EP was ultimately shelved for thirteen years.[3][4] Meanwhile, the band self-released a series of internet compilations through Bandcamp, including Electron(ish), Outtakes & Rarities, Blown Covers, and an expanded edition of Love Thongs and Bits of Happy under the title Stay Black.[5] Love Thongs was finally picked up by German record label Demons Run Amok Entertainment, which released it under the new title Stay Black in July 2016.[6][7][8] The double A-side single "He Really Tried" / "And Now the Rain" was simultaneously released through Demons Run Amok.[9][10]

Damien Done followed-up with Charm Offensive, the band's debut full-length album, released in March 2018 by American record label Mind Over Matter Records and Belgian record label Hypertension Records.[11][1] The album spanned the singles "Curious Thing",[12] "Primitive",[13] "The Lord Fox",[14] and "Roof Access".[15] In February 2020, Damien Done released the EP Baby, Don't Hearse Me through Mind Over Matter Records.[16] The band quickly followed up with the To Night EP and its accompanied title song single,[17][18] co-released in May 2020 by Mind Over Matter Records, with American record label Contraband Goods and British record label Speedowax Records.[19][20] In July 2020, the band released a cover single of House of Love's "Shine On", and in February 2021, another cover single of Iggy Pop and David Bowie's "Nightclubbing" was released.[21]

The band's sophomore full-length album, Total Power, is scheduled for release through Mind Over Matter Records and Protagonist Music in May 2023.[22][23] The debut single from the release, "Pray for Me", was released on January 31, 2023,[22][23] followed by "Inexorcisable", on March 24, 2023,[24][25] and "Bounty & Blight" (which features guest vocalist La Femme Pendu) on April 21, 2023.[26]
