The darkness once again sweeps over the land

A couple of days ago, I was delighted to hear about the reunion of The Darkness, a band I never cared much for while they were together but in recent months I have come to appreciate.

Fact: The decline in sales of tight-fitting clothes after The Darkness split up was a direct cause of the Recession.

The Darkness, I have come to realise, were essentially a sleeper cell. In essence, they are a glam rock, almost borderline power metal band only with less dragons and voices that were pitched higher than those guys on the Pakistani Cricket team who were paid to pitch the ball too high.

And better facial hair

They managed to make this kind of music yet still exist in a mainly popular light. In fact, I think you'd be had pressed (whatever that means) to find anyone who couldn't finish the sentence "I believe in a thing called _____".

This is all that's really been on my mind recently. Yup, that's how exciting my life has been. That, and the fact I  want to be a radio producer in a land that has no good radio stations. It would seem I either have to start my own radio station/podcast or move to London. Either way, I don't mind.

Also, be careful on Saturday, it's apparently the end of the world, something about the moon being close to earth.

P.S. I started a sound cloud account yesterday and I be's starting to make music. It's not great but here's a wee preview for y'all.
