The Darkness rules... Or does it?

The Darkness

Is anybody listening to The Darkness?? I just love that band... I even got The Darkness-cellphonecovers 🙄 Well, tell me!

And, if someone doesn't know, The Darkness is British (glam)rock-band, with a real high-singing vocalist... They just published new album One way Ticket To Hell ...And Back 🤣

First album kicked ass, second album I havent fully listened to yet but from what I heard....meh😬 And theyre playing here in a monthw00t

The new album is actually better, but it takes longer to click.

They're not 'glam-rock'.

i have not listened to them, can someone tell me of an album i could start with

Excellent band.

Personally... I like them.

Well, actually I don't even know what glamrock means, or I wouldn't be able to explain it. But I read somewhere that they are glamrock, so...

Great band anyway. Had the second album as a chrismaspresent and I´m going to buy first one. Heard some songs from first album, and they were bit better than newer ones.

Favorite songs?? Mine is probably "English Country Garden" from second album, or "I Believe In A Thing Called Love" from the first.

Come on, tell your favorite song!! Or if you don´t have any, then...

Love on the Rocks with no Ice has been mine for a very long time.

THeir first album was very very good, a real breakthrough. I went to see them live after it was released.

The second album is good... but it really can't match the first one, I'm afraid.

Here a link to one of their videos:

"I Believe In A Thing Called Love"

About a minute from the beginning, is my favorite part, when the guitar falls in Justin´s (Vocalist/Solo guitarist) hands...

I think it's better.

It's just not as recognised that it's better because of the insanely big smash that Permission to Land was. Just like Kid A is better than OK Computer but it's not too widely recognised purely because of what came before.

To each their own though.

Yes, back in 2003 The Darkness was shocking, now it´s bit more average, I guess...

Anyone watched that video??

i love Permision to Land, it took a while for it to click, and i managed to miss seeing them at Big Day Out when they played, where i work we love Permision to Land, everyone knows most of the words so as soon as we're drunk it comes on. I Belive In A Thing Called Love is my favourite song at the moment

That´s my favorite song too... About concerts, the just played here in Finland 7.3.2006. Didn´t have money enough and my parents wouldn´t have let me go there anyway... 🙁
