I would first like to point out I didn't buy this but was given the album as a present. I don't know why this point is so important to me but I feel I have to make it.

I'll start by admitting my prejuduce against The Darkness. I think they are w*nkers who believe that everyone is laughing along while quite a few observe them, like me, as oddities that should be included in that book of weird deformities FHM has this month.

So anyway bearing all this in mind the album is still sh*te. The singles have been overplayed while the album tracks are either weak or trying to be cleverer than they really are. If The Darkness bring forward a new wave of sh*t like this then I am scarpering for Radio 2 (or wherever you go now Radio 2 is more "cutting edge") and accepting middle age early. Lets face it at my weight I'm probably middle-aged anyway.

Radio 2 play just as much Darkness as Radio 1.

i illegally downloaded darkness album (yes, slap wrists) to just see what the fuss was about. i neednt have bothered, apart from friday night there isnt anything decent. the caterwauling is on par with mariah carey in scale of annoyance. it was only better at the time cos i downloaded the 2nd strokes album and it was even poorer than it.

buy snow patrol album instead.

Not having heard the album, I will say that I'm not a fan of the Darkness, from what I've heard I do think they're overrated. I agree with whoever said they won't be around in a year (although my predictions have been known to fail in the past.)

Yep, like the Ms. Dynamite one par example...

I think the Darkness are good, but I agree that they're overrated.

Ms Dynamite was what I was looking for, but couldn't find. Flat on it's arse that one was.
