The Darkness are known for their boundless energy and bringing their all to their live shows, but frontman Justin Hawkins' enthusiasm got the better of him at a recent show in Stockholm, Sweden when he took a tumble into the crowd.
Seven years after their last album, British rockers the Darkness will release their third studio album ‘Hot Cakes’ on Aug. 21 in the United States via Wind-up.
The Darkness have come out of retirement and will issue their third album sometime this year. Singer Justin Hawkins shared details about the unusual recording process for the release, as half was recorded in England and the other half in Nashville. There was a break in between sessions, since the band hit the festival circuit in Europe last summer to wear away any road rust.
The Darkness’ ‘Nothin’s Gonna Stop Us’ single debuted today in the form of an animated video created by Thom Lessner and director Ted Passon. The tune marks the first new song we’ve heard from the Darkness since 2006.
