The Darkness

A queen tribute band that happens to play their own songs.

Music listeners who are young and/or fans of shitty music (pop/mainstream hip-hop/most current mainstream rock) tend to believe that the band and its spandex wearing, innuendo loving, high vocal ranged frontman are crazy and original.
Sorry kids, but that concept was pioneered by the likes of Roger Daltrey and Robert Plant, and perfected by Freddie Mercury.
And the difference between those 3 and Justin Hawkins is that they all have world class voices... and he does not. Not to mention the lyrics they sang were much more deep and meaningful.

Oh yea, and all 3 of their bands (The Who, Led Zeppelin, and Queen, respectively) had bassists, drummers and guitarists far superior to those of this band.

Go listen to some real classic rock... none of this revival crap
