The Darkness
just saw them on Letterman and all I can say is
WTF was THAT?
think early to mid 80s hair band look (ie Poison, Cinderella, etc) and barely listenable singing. the music was tolerable, but hardly anything more. and simply the WORST use of falsetto I've ever heard.
Letterman, during the introduction, said something to the effect that they are HUGE in England. if thats true, then the British music scene must be utterly in shambles. if this is the best they have to offer, then it seems that the country that used to regularly produce some of the very best in rock music (and over a long period of time, from the early 60s to now) has finally used up every last bit of real talent it had and is now churning out pure and unadulterated CRAP.
my favorite part of their performance was when the three guitarists started doing the clap over their heads thing, trying to get the audience to clap along and NO ONE clapped with them. I almost fell outta my chair laughing.
anyway, for those of you who have never heard of them - dont bother, you aint missing a thing.
UGH!
