The Darkness have announced the release of their live album The Darkness – Live At Hammersmith which is due out on June 15th through Cooking Vinyl. The album captures the band at their London headline show at the Eventim Hammersmith Apollo in December last year. This is their first live album to be released on all formats (including CD, gatefold double vinyl, cassette, download and stream) and spans their spectacular back catalogue of five albums across 19 incendiary tracks.
“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’.” – Justin Hawkins (vocals)
