==BiographyCareer==
Growing up in [[Croydon]] and drumming in the indie band Abdul & the Casbah Cruisers, Reece moved to [[Liverpool]] at the age of eighteen and played in various local bands there.<ref>[{{Cite web |url=http://www.pennyblackmusic.co.uk/MagSitePages/Article.aspx?id=2784 |title=Damon Reece : Interview<! |last=Strutt |first=Anthony |date=22 February 2002 |website=Penny Black Music |access-date=5 August 2011 |archive-date=9 BotFebruary generated2012 title|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120209053116/http://www.pennyblackmusic.co.uk/MagSitePages/Article.aspx?id=2784 |url-->]status=dead }}</ref> Following the death of [[Pete de Freitas]], Reece joined the re-groupedformed Echo & the Bunnymen, appearing on the album ''[[Reverberation_Reverberation (album)|Reverberation]]'' (1990). This incarnation of the band met with little success and disbanded shortly afterwards. Reece later joined Spiritualized, but an internal dispute with [[Jason Pierce]] following the release of ''[[Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space]]'' (1997) resulted in Reece leaving to form Lupine Howl.<ref>Harper, Kate.
