On the subject of The Darkness it fills me with yuletide pride
to announce that even this late in the year we have a contender for most
cynical cash in of the year courtesy once again of those folks at Guided
Missile (do they just release novelty records now?). Yep following on
from The Diff'rent Strokes and The Diff'rent Stripes we now
have The Diff'rent Darkness. A joke that's worn as thin as Justin
Hawkins disappearing mane. Think of all this years bandwagons (novelty
icy electro, crap rock, daft cover versions) all rolled into one.
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
What their label says...
1. I BELIEVE IN A THING CALLED LOVE is a weighty indie/electro/rock/dancefloor version with sultry, female, german-accented spoken vocal, big electroclash beats, 'intergalactic'-style synth bass and full-on distored RAWK guitars! 2. GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY WOMAN is a full on 'exotic'-keyboard-meets-RAWK- guitar workout - like a weird collaboration between AC/DC, Thin Lizzy, Perrey & Kingsley and Raymond Scott! 3. LOVE ON THE ROCKS WITH NO ICE is, curiously performed by 'special guests The Orff Orchestra - a band consisting entirely of toys', and features accordion, sitar, kazoo, theramin, toy xylophone and musical saw! .
