The Darkness
June 14, 2009, 11:56:22 pm
At the risk of being puntered:

I had forgotten how incredible The Darkness was.

Power chords, tight cat suits, high pitch vocals, hugely camp low budget videos and a hefty dose of humour. Amazing!

Went to see them twice and they didn't disappoint. Awesome entertainment.

Shite of the the purest form.

Anyone who sings with a tongue in cheek will hopefully bite their own tongue off.

Utter shit.


I don't know how you can come back from this one.  Have you considered suicide?  *scoots-off to get camera*

Poor Will.  :'(

To clarify, poor Will that he likes The Darkness, not that he's getting slagged for it, he deserves to have the piss thoroughly ripped for a thread like this.

I agree - they're bad, real bad....

but hasn't the lead singer 9whatever he's called?) got over his coke habit and is forming a new band..? (who'll no doubt be just as shite...)

The thing is that spinal tap did this shit and they they were really taking the piss; and they are still going (Playing Glastonbury this year- how very?); and one of them married the ultimate sex goddess of her day (Jamie Leigh-Curtis); and he's a fucking baron; and the base player is also the voice of Mr Burns in the Simpsons. If I remember rightly these guys are from Lowestoft- end of.

Sorry Blue But the ambiguity is resolved in the opposite direction - Sinal Tap are septics and Justin and the boys are from Lowestoft. But you knew that, deep down, didn't you?
You could always start an "In defence of Lowestoft" thread. I would contribute... with derision, tinged with contempt :)

The new band are/were called Hot Leg. Needless to say, they were equally shite.

That's class, does anyone else remember Still Crazy? Not quite Spinal Tap but a good rockumentary all the same.

I suspected that defending Lowestoft was the furthest thing from your mind but the question had to be asked.

With regard to starting an "In defence of Lowestoft thread" - I am almost tempoted to do such a thing and probably would if I could think of anything meaningful that could be constituted as defence of its existence. You could always hijack this thread I suppose...  ;)
