British rockers THE DARKNESS will release their third studio album, "Hot
Cakes", on August 21 via Wind-Up (North and South America) and PIAS (U.K. and
rest of the world). After a seven-year wait, "Hot Cakes" — produced by the
band's Justin and Dan Hawkins with longtime collaborator Nick Brine and mixed
by Bob Ezrin — will deliver the epic rock anthems and infectious pop
choruses the multi-platinum band has become renowned for worldwide.
"When we first heard a new DARKNESS track and after seeing them play live in
New York City, we knew THE DARKNESS were back!" explains Wind-Up CEO Edward
Vetri. "THE DARKNESS and Wind-up make a great rock partnership and we look
forward to working with them to launch 'Hot Cakes'."
THE DARKNESS kicks off an Australian tour this week (May 4) before returning
to the U.S. May 18 for select dates and three festival appearances: Saturday,
May 19 at InfieldFest (Baltimore, Maryland); Sunday, May 20 at Rock On The
Range (Columbus, Ohio); and Saturday, May 26 at Rocklahoma (Pryor, Oklahoma).
Following the U.S. shows, they'll perform festivals across Europe as well as
a hometown outdoor headlining gig at Thetford Fest in Suffolk before teaming
with LADY GAGA for her "Born This Way Ball" tour.
Since THE DARKNESS — Justin Hawkins (vocals/guitars), Dan Hawkins
(guitars/backing vocals), Frankie Poullain (bass) and Ed Graham (drums) —
resumed active service almost 12 months ago on the main stage of 2011's
Download festival with their original lineup, the British group have
accomplished a lot. They've completed sold-out tours of the U.K. and North
America; were featured in a Superbowl ad (broadcast to over 100 million
viewers in the tense fourth quarter of the game); finished recording "Hot
Cakes" and released a free teaser track and video, "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us".
THE DARKNESS made its U.K. live comeback in June 2011 in front of just 200
people at the Norwich Waterfront.
THE DARKNESS' first album, "Permission To Land", was released in 2003,
hitting the No. 1 spot in the U.K. chart and winning "MasterCard British
Album" at the 2004 Brit Awards (along with "Best British Group" and "British
Rock Act").
Between 2003 and 2006, THE DARKNESS was honored with many awards and
accolades; along with three Brit Awards, the band won an Ivor Novello in 2004
for "Songwriters Of The Year", four Kerrang! Awards, two Metal Hammer Awards,
an MTV Europe Music Award and even an Elle Style Award in 2004 for "Most
Stylish Band".

英國Hard Rock / Glam Metal團The Darkness新專輯Hot Cakes於8/20發行。
新專輯的廠牌是Wind-Up，台灣如果有發的話是金牌大風或百代音樂。
不過EMI已經被Sony併掉了，所以也有可能是Sony發行。
主唱Justin Hawkins之前因為吸毒關係被樂團Fire，後來導致樂團解散(2000-2006)。
之後The Darkness一分為為二：Stone Gods與Hot Leg，2011年確定重組。
目前新專輯Hot Cakes專輯確定收錄的曲目如下：
‧Nothing's Gonna Stop Us
‧Concrete
‧Cannonball
‧Can't Believe It's Not Love (Out Of This World)
‧She's Just a Girl, Eddie
‧Everybody Have A Good Time
‧Every Inch Of You
‧With A Woman
‧Pat Pong
Lemmy電影說寫過樂評的樂園就是The Darkness，Lemmy說他們的音樂太軟了。XD
2003年首張專輯Permission To Land讓他們走紅。
2005年第二張專輯One Way Ticket To Hell... And Back也賣的不錯。
重組之後換了廠牌，除了寫新歌錄音外，也參加了大小的音樂祭。
重組後的陣容：
Justin Hawkins (Vocals, Guitar)
Dan Hawkins (Guitar)
Frankie Poullain (Bass)
Ed Graham (Drums)
