An review.
The Darkness have exceeded all expectaions with their mighty debut "Permission to Land". Favourites like from the live set are reproduced faithfully (ie with volume cranked and all swearing intact, cheers) and new fans will find all of the singles so far in place. Standout song so far is "Stuck in a Rut", with it's "kiss my arse / kiss my arse goodbye" opening, but forthcoming re-release "I Believe In A Thing Called Love" is a majestic and touching piece of work, and full range of emotions within "Love on the Rocks (with no ice)" sends tingles every time.
"Permission to Land" is JD and Coke injected into the eyes by a small army of groupies, it's drowning in a guitar shaped swimming pool full of Jimi Hendrix' vomit, it's a whole lot of excessive cliches, but it's not a parody. The Darkness own their own universe where ROCK is a way of life. Welcome to it gentle listener, in your Top Shop AC/DC t-shirt and Toni & Guy mullett, let's hope you're still here next year...
My only complaints are that a) the album's "copy protected", which means I can't play it on a Windows based computer, b) it's too familiar already, c) got this so late that you've already got it before reading this review, and d) it's so good that it makes it hard to see where they're going next. The joke situations in their first major review from 2001 seem have been reached and beached already, there is possibly only rehab and playing golf with presidents to look forward to.
Keep it Rock Based \m/

Rejoice, for LO! IT IS TRUE! They have split up...
This posted on the Official Unbelievable Truth website:
I'm afraid that the rumours are true, and I have decided to leave Unbelievable Truth. The last few years
have been enjoyable and an amazing experience, but I feel that now is a good time to move on. I intend to
pursue the other thing in my life which fascinates me, namely work involving Russia and Eastern Europe. Nigel and Jase are planning to continue with music, but my departure will mark the end of Unbelievable Truth. Most importantly of all, I'd like to extend my enormous thanks to all the fans who have stuck with us over the years and helped to make being in this band such a privilege. The show at the Oxford Zodiac on the 16th of September will go ahead and will be our farewell show. We hope you can make it.
It's from Andy, but Nigel also adds an apology to "the people I lied to at Reading Festival"... well, I hope you're happy Nigel, you probably those poor fans hearts...
Right, who can we hate now? Unbelievable Truth will be REMOVED FROM THE GAME, so I'd sell up quickly if I was you...
