Product Description

Review
"September [2003] was the month America, not just little old Britain began to worship The Darkness."

Book Description
The Darkness: Permission To Rock charts the unstoppable rise of rock band The Darkness, from humble pub-rock beginnings to an unprecedented level of success on both sides of the Atlantic. With their good-time attitude, flamboyant 'rock god' image, sizzling live shows and a set of finely crafted songs which take classic 70s rock into the 21st century, The Darkness have become the most popular band around.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fun!, 11 Feb 2004
Permission to rock is really fun. I like the upbeat style of writing and the author really seems to be celebrating the band's flamboyance and Justin's outrageous remarks.
He talks about all the early gigs, which is great because I must shamefully admit I only discovered them in April last year.
I love all the photos. It's a great collection of pics and there are loads that I've never seen before.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Darkness rocks, 27 Dec 2003
By A Customer
This book rocks like the Darkness! In fact it's a great read - a bit like the Darkness' rollercoaster ride to the top. The pictures are great and there's loads from before they were famous - with Justin looking gorgeous! Rock on....

5.0 out of 5 stars Spandex - no greater stretchy material!, 17 Dec 2003
By Mr DM Russell (Richmond, Surrey United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
"A band that goes for it, wears tight trousers and little or nothing on the top, that's what I demand." - Justin Hawkins, lead singer - The Darkness

From humble beginnings in a converted Lowestoft outside-toilet to a platinum-selling number one album, Dick Porter charts the ultimate success story of 2003. Realising the band's intentions from the very start to simply put the fun back into rock 'n' roll, Porter joyously presents the highs and lows of four 'men's men' struggling to make themselves heard.
Packed with everything you could ever want to know about the meteoric rise of British music's saviours, Permission to Rock is as wildly entertaining as it's subject. If only it too was encased in spandex.

1.0 out of 5 stars Rubbish!
Do not waste your money on this book - it's nothing more than regurgitated old quotes and reviews and provides no new information of any kind. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't Wait!
I'm really looking forward to this book, written by the author of RAPCORE which was a great book.
Roll on December!
