This was the Darkness at their peak of popularity in the UK. Can't believe it was two decades ago!

They were just what the doctor ordered during their first album cycle. Great footage.
They lost the magic sauce shortly after. I love every album they've done, but they never got close to these heights again.

Yeah, luckily they don't need to reach those heights. Not that it wouldn't be nice, but they have this pretty devoted fan-base where if they continue to work hard and release records/tour, they can keep the lights on.FreddyFender wrote: ↑Fri Sep 15, 2023 12:48 pm They were just what the doctor ordered during their first album cycle.

They've never put out a bad album. Every album has some classic songs and some great lyrics. They should have a new album out next year.
It would be pretty hard for me to rank their albums. I think #1 is pretty solid, but 2 through 6 would literally depend on the day as any of them could shift around. Even though Hot Cakes is last, it's still like a 7 or 8 out of 10.
1. Permission To Land
2. One Way Ticket To Hell And Back
3. Motorheart
4. Easter Is Cancelled
5. Pinewood Smile
6. The Last Of Our Kind
7. Hot Cakes
Justin's Hot Leg band was pretty cool too and basically sounds like a Darkness record.
