Fictional character biography

Born in Queens, New York, Amanda Reed's mother died when she was still young. Her father was a substance abuser and was often violent towards Amanda. When she was seventeen years old, Amanda was a prostitute, living on the streets, until she was recruited for the Daemonite organisation known as the Cabal. She was bonded to a symbiote that could form a bio-metallic suit around her and became Taboo. The symbiote had vampiric tendencies though and often Taboo would found herself overcome with bloodlust in battle. She was framed for murder when she wanted to leave the organisation and sent to Purgatory Max, a special prison for super-powered beings in the Arctics.

Five years later, colonel Mark Slayton aka Backlash freed her, hoping to use her knowledge of the Cabal to help his girlfriend, Major Diane Lasalle, who had been left comatose after the Daemonite Lord S'ryn had possessed her during an attempted Daemonite incursion of Skywatch. Together they tracked S'ryn down and fought him. S'ryn managed to escape, but Taboo had proven herself to Backlash. They went for a few drinks, but ended up in bed. Once sobered up, Slayton felt guilty about betraying Diane and tried to keep Amanda at bay, but over time they grew closer.

Damage (Jimmy Eat World album)

Damage is the eighth studio album by American alternative rock band Jimmy Eat World, released on June 11, 2013, on RCA Records. Described as "an attempt at making an adult breakup record", the album was produced by regular Queens of the Stone Age collaborator Alain Johannes, and was preceded by the singles "I Will Steal You Back" and "Damage".

Released to generally favorable reviews, Damage reached number 14 on the Billboard 200 and 38 on the UK Albums Chart.

Background and recording

Damage was recorded in October 2012 with producer Alain Johannes (formerly of the band Eleven, and regular Queens of the Stone Age collaborator). Unlike the band's previous two studio albums, Chase This Light (2007) and Invented (2010), which were both recorded at the band's rehearsal space in Arizona, the album was recorded at Johannes' home on both analog tape and Pro Tools. Regarding the recording process, vocalist and guitarist Jim Adkins stated: "We used tape for the first time in a long time, as well as computer. I hate saying more raw, but it's more raw and warm. We just set up all around Alain's house. There were instruments in his bedroom and drums in his living room. Just noise all day long. There was less an emphasis on it being clean and perfect. There's a lot of stuff that's more about the performance than it sounding pristine. And I think it feels better for what the songs are." Adkins elaborated: "It was inspiring to live in the making of the album for a month."
