    Does anyone remember that bit in The Comic Strip Presents Bad News...? Vim Fuego (Adrian Edmondson) says - "Jimmy Page was 25 when he wrote Stairway To Heaven. I could play it when I was 16. I think that says a lot, really."

    This thread reminds me of that for some reason.

  • Ahah! So this is an "I'm bitter for being rejected" thread. Glad we got there eventually.
    well, despite me, I still call The Rolling Stones the UK Guns N' Roses, and it's like, socially, IMO, kind of geeky and offensive when it hits mainstream sold as it.

    I actually find it quite hilarious that you can throw such venom at The Darkness,while simultaneously lauding the shit that is Republica.

    How very bizarre.
    Laugh, love, live, learn.

  • I guess Bob Dylan angered Jimi Hendrix a little, IDK, I'm not Jimi Hendrix.
    But I remember Jimi Hendrix saw Bob and was like 'what? I can do that!'... And did, and was awesome and amazing.Bob Dylan has some amazing songs, but, I like the covers better.

  • I take it back though, Bob Dylan's Like a Rolling Stone was good.

    Likewise.
    Republica were Republica, not the next no one dressing like 30 years prior.

    Musically, great, with their tunes and lyrics.

    I don't want to wobble the foundations of this entire fine thread, and I can't be bothered to spend five hours on Google looking for Justin Hawkins quotes, but.... did The Darkness ever actually claim to be the new Guns N' Roses, or even say they were influenced by them?  I always thought they were more like a weird mix of AC/DC and Queen.
    Honestly, both's an insult to Guns N' Roses.

    It's The Darkness FFS.

    Their guitar work was lame yet they run around saying they saved rock when The Darkness actually pissed on Rock's door, gate crashed the party and acted like it knew all the cool bands inside.

    You've taken my question and responded to it as if it was a statement.  Cheers.

    Here's another question - did they ever "run around saying they saved rock"?  I don't remember that either.

    Are you asking for a dedicated The Darkness suck thread?
    What are you asking?
    Stop asking for things.


    Can you actually read English? 

    This IS a dedicated The Darkness suck thread.  You started it and you're the one keeping it going, you buffoon.

    This is brilliant, please keep this thread going for ever.

    I quite like the Darkness, but for the sake of balance, they are a bunch of posers who can gargle my balls and eat my full and meaty turds!!

    I should have been signed by now, maybe not to a record label, Mary Spender had me sign a piece of paper her lawyer delivered telling me to stay 100 yards away at all times, does that count?
    We have to be so very careful, what we believe in...

    Can I borrow that afterwards?
    The Darkness said Pinewood Smile was in your face with its guitar work like Appetite For Destruction was this year...
    and nobody said anything about it (but me)
    - that wall actually does look appealing to me now.

  • Apparently we both (me and The Darkness) both hate Southern Railway... but....


    Other than that, they suck.

    I mean, we both like Guns N' Roses... but....................

    I sort of see that like my sainted mother and The Darkness as posers...

    Like, Southern Fail don't go to Suffolk, that's Anglian probably (IDK who). Posers singing about my sucky railway when they have no right why I oughta... Selling tickets and records to target me instead of being of me in the genre that is stale because of thee; The Darkness.... Last of our Kind gives me hope, wishing it would die already and be put out if it's misery dealt to the record industry today.

    The Darkness are the kind who gave us S Club 7 dressed up as Motley Crew.

  • IDK who I don't like more, Southern Rail or ASLEF or RMT, but still, Southern do suck.

    I'd never write a song about it though.

    Gave it a listen.

    It's still pants.

    But you know what? I have choices.Maybe I could start a thread running to several pages (of mostly my own posts) explaining (badly) the reasons for not liking Republica,or I could put something else on (which I do like) and move on (hint,hint).
    Laugh, love, live, learn.

  • Each to their own, but if I don't put it out there that The Darkness suck, how else are these record companies going to know who's going to sell/go multi platinum?

    Rejection of The Darkness running around when they did singing and saying what they did is like hating the X Factor for ruining the industry; perfectly just in order to send the right message to the people producing this stuff.
