The Darkness is a British rock band formed in Lowestoft, Suffolk in 2000 by brothers Justin Hawkins and Dan Hawkins. They recorded and released their debut album Permission to Land in 2003. After a hiatus, the band reunited in 2011 and released their third studio album Hot Cakes in 2012. With various lineup changes over the years, The Darkness have continued to release music, including albums Last of Our Kind (2015), Pinewood Smile (2017), and Easter Is Cancelled (2019).Justin Hawkins serves as the lead singer of The Darkness, bringing his powerful vocals and energetic stage presence to their performances. The band's sound is characterized by catchy hooks, heavy guitar riffs, and an overall classic rock influence.With their distinct style and memorable hits like "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" and "Growing on Me," The Darkness has garnered a dedicated fan base worldwide. Their dynamic live shows are known for their high energy and entertainment value.

England’s most distinctive, multiple award-winning, platinum-selling, hugely entertaining rock gods – and one-time saviours of rock’n’roll turned national pleasures – The Darkness are back with their fifth album Pinewood Smile through Cooking Vinyl. Lead track All The Pretty Girls is a glorious, hard-rockin’, autobiographical anthem intellectually examining the fact that when you’re a rock star you get a lot of attention from ladies and discussing the ethical conundrums that come with that. Returning to save our airwaves from mediocre, auto-tuned tweens and that awful, throbby EDM shite, the album Pinewood Smile finds The Darkness on electrifying form, delivering some of the most sharp-witted, infectious, humorous and downright brilliant songs of their career. Written in Putney, recorded in Cornwall and produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Adrian Bushby (Foo Fighters, Muse), the compositions have all the crucial elements of classic Darkness fare, but with added layers for the ears to peel away at… like a sonic onion but a lot tastier. It also features the drumming and vocal talents of gorgeous new band member Rufus Tiger Taylor, son of Queen legend Roger Taylor, who shares vocal duties with Justin on two of the tracks.
