The Darkness

British rock band from Lowestoft, Suffolk, formed in 2000 by brothers Justin (vocals, guitar, keyboards) and Dan Hawkins (guitar, backing vocals), Frankie Poullain (bass guitar, backing vocals), and Ed Graham (drums, percussion). The band practically single-handedly managed the incredible — to revive the completely unfashionable at that time sound of classic 70s hard rock and glam rock for a generation that had no idea that it needed it. Powerful, confident guitar riffs, expansive, carefree solos, an impeccable rhythm section, a huge share of humor, and, of course, Justin's incredible vocals became the signature of The Darkness.
