Wishbone G Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 From Ultimate-Guitar (and slightly edited for the author's rubbish english)As we reported previously, The Darkness have started work on the follow-up to "Permission To Land" with a little bit of inspiration from the late Freddie Mercury: The band was working in the same studio in which Queen recorded "Bohemian Rhapsody." "Studio stuff is going well. It's about the biggest drum sound you'll ever hear on a rock record and that's all there is to it at the moment. We're in the same studio that they recorded "Bohemian Rhapsody" in, so I'm using Freddie's piano and stuff," said singer Justin Hawkins. As it was reported by WiredAF news agency, at the present time the band stopped working on the follow-up because of mysterious reasons. Justin Hawkins denied commenting on the situation, however the following press release was leaked early on the internet. "We were recording our 3rd song for the album, which has some piano parts and I was playing on Freddie's piano when this happened. Suddenly all our gear stopped working and it's became very silentl. I almost felt the silence. There were like 10 people from the studio as well as the whole band when we heard a hiss from one of our amplifiers, and then the voice said "Stop this. You vulgarize the rock music, you are doing everything wrong. And stop touching my piano" "Last thing I remember -- that amplifier started to burn. I am scared to death now. We decided to stop the recording and think about that. We may quit the scene."The band is going to sue the company which owns the studio, because they did not make the band aware of the ghosts and other odd things that have happened there before.

Mouse Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Personally the Darkness are one of the best live bands out there, and that says something as I've also seen some of the greatest such as Metallica, Rush, Dream Theater, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest...

betamax Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 the Darkness are just a harmless hairy pop band with 4 good songs (so far)Queen are over rated fag rock, the over-rated thing always happens once the singer dies of Aids/shoots himself in face/ODs on the shitter/chokes on a tangerine with a rubber cock up his ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think their 80s stuff is mostly banal richman rock, but their 70s stuff is legend. Still, you gotta respect them: the only band where all four members have written No 1 singles: FACT.
