The Darkness

They don't have their own their that I could find, yet it seems like they should. Especially with their first Toronto appearance and all.

Heard them for the first time the other day and loved it. They bring the visual equivalent to the statement, " rock out with your cock out" and for that deserve praise.

I'm in the same boat. It takes a lot for me to get excited about rock these days but I guess because I'm just old enough to appreciate these guys the music is appealing.

That's okay, if you've heard only one of their songs I would say you have a fair impression of what they are all about :)

No offence, but every time I hear that song it reminds me of late 70's, early 80's glam rock. Actually it almost sounds like something I've heard before. They're definitely not doing anything new just ripping off an old style and that's just poooooo!

Mind you that's the only song I ever heard from them.







I smell cheese.....

orange richie that's the idea. They're a total mock of themselves. You should see them in their videos.

Of course you've heard that kind of music before. Rick Springfield perfected it.

They don't claim to be doing anything innovative or worldsaving.

It's intended to be just plain fun music.

And they do a damn good job of it too.

Just what we need in rock - a novelty act whose schtick has been done several times dating back 30 years (see Dictators, buy Dictators CD, henceforth never mention Darkness again)

Like 'em while you can coz you'll be sheepish as a Dread Zeppelin fan circa 1992.
