Written by Laura Johnson
The Darkness will release a live album this summer.
'The Darkness – Live At Hammersmith' will arrive on June 15 through Cooking Vinyl. It was recorded during the band's show at the Eventim Apollo in December last year as part of their Tour De Prance run.
Speaking about the record, frontman Justin Hawkins said:
“The Darkness is untamed. It cannot be caged. Some very clever recording engineers have discovered a way to capture its essence; all that remains is for us to release it back into the wild.
"Life is about experiences, not possessions. This is your opportunity to possess the experience of The Darkness Live, as perceived by your ears, leaving your eyes free to scan the road ahead for obstacles, or to watch Emmerdale with the sound off, or to mould clay, or to darn socks, or to look at the beautiful artwork in this magnificent gatefold. Release yourself into The Darkness - Live at Hammersmith.”
