The Darkness have premiered their cover of Radiohead’s 'Street Spirit’ online.
The reworking of 'Street Spirit' will be included on the band's forthcoming album ‘Hot Cakes’ which will be released on August 20th through PIAS. On the subject of the album, vocalist and guitarist Justin Hawkins commented: "’Hot Cakes’ has a nice raw feel to it like the first album had, with occasional luxurious moments akin to the second. We're proud of the songs and we can't wait for people to hear them. We've been playing some tracks for the album in tour, each time we play a new song it feels like a deep powerful thrust in a frenzied love ritual between us and our fans. August 20th really will be a sweet release for all concerned.
We included the Radiohead cover because it has been a live favourite for many moons, and we wanted to release a definitive recording of our interpretation.
Best of all, ‘Hot Cakes’ has got even more songs on it than what ‘Permission To Land’ and ‘One Way Ticket To Hell And Back had’. But not if you put them both together."
'Hot Cakes' tracklisting for the album is as follows:
1. Every Inch of You
2. Nothin’s Gonna Stop Us
3. With A Woman
4. Keep Me Hangin’ On
5. Living Every Day Blind
6. Everybody Have A Good Time
7. She Just A Girl Eddie
8. Forbidden Love
9. Concrete
10. Street Spirit (Fade Out)
11 Love Is Not The Answer
