England's most distinctive, multiple award-winning, platinum-selling, hugely entertaining rock gods – and one-time saviours of rock'n'roll turned national pleasures – The Darkness are back with their fifth album 'Pinewood Smile!'

Returning to save our airwaves from mediocre, auto-tuned tweens and that awful, throbby EDM shite, the album 'Pinewood Smile' finds The Darkness on electrifying form, delivering some of the most sharp-witted, infectious, humorous and downright brilliant songs of their career.

Written in Putney, recorded in Cornwall and produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Adrian Bushby (Foo Fighters, Muse), the compositions have all the crucial elements of classic Darkness fare, but with added layers for the ears to peel away at like a sonic onion but a lot tastier. It also features the drumming and vocal talents of gorgeous new band member Rufus Tiger Taylor, son of Queen legend Roger Taylor, who shares vocal duties with Justin on two of the tracks.
