Anybody else think The Darkness blows?
I've seen quite a few positive posts about these guys, and to each their own I fully believe, so no, if you love them I have no desire to make you stop listening and I don't think my opinion is any better than anyone else out there. Just wondered if I was the only one that thought these guys were just about the most annoying thing to come out musically in a really long time. They reminded me of a bad mix of 70s and 80s metal. I couldn't sit through an entire song. Truly offensive to my ears. God I hope they don't get popular.
Am I the only one that hears them this way?
I just happened to see them on TV last night...
on a channel that has plenty of live (read: taped) performances by rock bands. I was channel surfing and happended upon them without realizing who they were at first. Is that lead singer/guitarist for real? His voice was well beyond annoying, and his riffs are staler than week-old bread. Add his glam-rock (with a pinch of Axel Rose) attire, and you have one very weird combination. I guess I can get past the looks, but nothing they played showed me anything creative and/or original.
Yuck!
Hey, if you like 'em, you're entitled to your opinion, no matter how ridiculous it may be. ;)
