How are "The Darkness" doing in the states? :) (1 Viewer)

I hope so! The Wildhearts are coming in March/April. I plan on seeing 8 shows.

I heard their song "I Believe In A Thing Called Love" on the radio the other day, and I thought it was pretty good. My only problem is that the singer can get annoying.

Geez, that band is super-annoying. Total joke.

Right now, the best new aussie/brit band is easily Jecht.



BWAHAHAHA! No way. Radiohead is held in very high regard. You can't get to the same level as Radiohead with 1 silly song. All of Radiohead's music is art. True inovation. Very unique sounds.

 

[Mike Broadman]

The Darkness is art.

I love Radiohead, but comparing the two is silly. In the dark, alone, on a Sunday evening, Hail to the Thief is sublime. At a pool party, with the BBQ flaring up and the gals in their best two-pieces: we need some Darkness rockin' and a-rollin'.

Someone is going to loan me a copy of the album. If I get as much a kick out of at least 3 of the other songs as I do the single, I shall be getting me a copy.

I love the song .... "get you hands of my wife......" LOL Funnny and rockin.

Regards

Blabbermouth.net says that The Darkness will be on the main stage at Ozzfest (The biggest heavy metal festival in the country) this year, so they must be doing pretty damn well here in the US!

Check some of the lyrics to "Growing On Me"...

I wanna shake you off but you just won't go
And you're all over me but I don't want anyone to know
That you're attached to me, that's how you've grown
Won't you leave me, leave me alone

Anybody that can write a great song about pubic lice is OK in my book!

Some contributors to this forum had better take blood pressure pills before reading any further.

The Darkness won several awards at The Brits (the UK equivalent of The Grammys) last night, including Album of the Year.
