Metal Sludge Gossip Board

New song from The Darkness that sounds like it's probably describing a few people on this board:

Not bad at all. Nice somewhat heavy rocking number, though Justin's vocals aren't as over-the-top Freddie Mercury-ish as we're used to from him (until near the end).

Maybe that will grow on me. I like the other single better

Sorry if already posted. The third pre-release did nothing for me

Not to sound like get-off-my-lawn gatekeeper guy, but I don't like it when they give haters more ammo to call them a joke band.

Or fuck it, maybe I've been wrong for 20 years.

Should have covered Tool “prison sex” that’s The Darkness 2025 audience now

I get it, but I don't think it's that black or white. They've always had humorous lyrics and songs on every album. But they're not Steel Panther either. "I Wish I Was In Heaven" off Pinewood Smile isn't a joke song at all, but then a few songs later they have "Stampede Of Love." If people can't understand that it's possible to have both, then fuck 'em.

Its cool they did a song about LAglamrocker

Another "pass" for me........1st 2 albums are awesome, after that (unfortunately) nothing has come close.

Yeah this for sure

Big Darkness fan and I think they typically have a handful of kickass songs on each of the later albums, but this one ain't it.
