The Darkness

British rock 'n' rollers the Darkness have been forced to postpone their upcoming Australia / New Zealand tour dates due to drummer Ed Graham's severe hip problems. Having already gone through "extensive surgery" several years ago, Graham has been playing through the pain for the last few weeks, but the drummer has now been advised to rest up and undergo testing before returning to his s

The Darkness have unleashed a music video for their tune ‘With a Woman,' which marks the fourth single from the band’s 2012 disc ‘Hot Cakes.’ The clip delivers ‘Episode 1’ of what will likely take music fans on a trip down memory lane to a time when the hair was big and the videos were larger than life.

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.

The Darkness' reunion will continue beyond their 'Hot Cakes' album and guitarist Dan Hawkins says that fans shouldn't expect too long of a turnaround before a new record arrives.

After a bit of an extended break, the Darkness returned in August with their latest disc ‘Hot Cakes,’ the follow-up to 2005's 'One Way Ticket to Hell... and Back.' Now, as if making up for lost time, the band is plotting to take their tasty musical treats out on the road again for a 2013 headlining run that will span 15 countries.

Yesterday we had Ed Graham of The Darkness stop by and talk with us on 'Radio Row' here at Rocklahoma 2012 They played the Hard Rock stage at 8:05pm Saturday night and rocked the crowd with their over the top stage performance and British inspired classic rock meets glam colliding with modern production.

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.

As previously reported, the Darkness are returning to North America for a tour next month, the band’s first stateside outing since 2004. Frontman Justin Hawkins and his guitarist brother Dan Hawkins told Loudwire recently that the band is hard at work on a new album that is tentatively set to drop in the spring.
