The Darkness Share New Song Rock And Roll Deserves To Die From Upcoming Album 'Easter In Cancelled'

The Darkness have shared a video for their new song.

Titled Rock And Roll Deserves To Die, the five-minute track flits between gentle, acoustic guitars and exploding monumental riffs and serves as the first preview of the Lowestoft rockers' upcoming concept album, 'Easter Is Cancelled', out on October 4 through Cooking Vinyl. Talking about the new material, bassist Frankie Poullain said:

"A lot of bands have relinquished their duty. Rock and roll is so uniform now. Everybody dresses the same, looks the same, sounds the same. It’s pathetic. It deserves to die. Let’s kill the cliché. Let’s break the crucifix. That’s partly what the album is about."

The Darkness will embark on a UK and Ireland tour this autumn in support of the album. Their plans also include European shows early next year.

To outsiders, it often seems that any fresh faced group who ‘suddenly’ arrive on the scene with a bang, and subsequently reap the rewards their newfound status commands, have had it easy and somehow fluked their way out of obscurity. But before hit singles and worldwide tours, there often lies a story of hard graft, setbacks and intense frustration, making that eventual breakthrough taste even sweeter.
