MARK DALY
With a back catalogue overflowing with sonic masterpieces and a live reputation that most bands can only dream of, The Darkness have established themselves as one of the most exciting live bands. More than 20 years after The Darkness burst on the scene with their debut confection of rock brilliance, Permission To Land, the band’s cheeky, spandex-clad anthems continue to dazzle and amaze. With Dreams On Toast, The Darkness produced another triumphant collection of solid gold rock bangers and are set to deliver heart exploding concerts that promise to be glorious spectacles of foot-stomping, guitar-wailing, high-octane joy.
Rolling Stone UK gushes that The Darkness have “Incredible live presence,” Music Connection raves, “There really is nothing like a Darkness show, the band is great, the songs are great, and they leave the fans wanting more,” while Live Music News and Review enthuses, “It is a truth universally acknowledged that The Darkness are guaranteed to melt your face during one of their live performances.” Music Existence proclaims, “This band is in a class of their own and shouldn’t be missed if you’re able to see them live,” Music City Magazine shares, “They are truthfully one of the best live acts out there,” Top Shelf Music Magazine lauds, “In terms of pure high-energy rock and roll, nobody has ever rocked harder than The Darkness” and My Global Mind declares, “Their show is EXACTLY what a rock and roll show should be!”
