THE DARKNESS SHINE OUT The Darkness have proved there is still a taste for rock amid the often bland offerings of modern music by dominating this year's Brit awards. The glam rockers were the night's big winners, taking home Best British Group and Best British Album for Permission To Land. They were also named Best British Rock Act, a category created especially for them.
It was an amazing treble for a band who were virtually unknown this time last year and did not even get an invite to the 2003 Brits. Thanks to their million-selling album they are now megastars and are credited with Britain's rock revival. The Darkness frontman Justin Hawkins told the audience: "This is a real privilege, a tremendous honour and a great achievement."
He added: "I have to say, we probably are the best British group."

the time has probably come when being real doesnt count anymore and wearing toupets is the new way of expressing musical talent. people easily declare themselves being songwriters tho they might mix that up with being entertainers actually... all we can do is wait for this 'phenomenon' to vanish...

as soon as a decent rock n roll band comes along they will be forgotten. The Darkness have fans but i doubt they have verry many loyal fans yet. Most of them just listen to them cause everyone does. If another band comes along and has a similar sort of impact the darkness will be yesterdays news.

lol all these rants remind me of those Liam haters' constant moaning 'Oh he's arrogant, oh they're just another Beatles tribute band... Is a shameless thieving what they call talent nowdays?' and all that funny
