Those blasts from the past just keep on coming. After a long absence, British glam rockers The Darkness are returning to our shores for their Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us tour.
Fans will be happy to note the band will tour with their original line up of Justin and Dan Hawkins, Frankie Poullain, and Ed Graham. The shows won’t just reminisce about the band’s golden days, although I’m sure there’ll be plenty of that. The band will also spruik their third studio album, their first in eight years, which is expected to drop later this year. The disc hasn’t been christened yet, but it will feature the new single “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us.”
Expect shows as epic as the band’s image when The Darkness touch down in May. Tickets go on sale tomorrow for the following dates.
4 May 2012 – Eatons Hill Hotel, Brisbane
5 May 2012 – Panthers, Newcastle
6 May 2012 – UNSW Roundhouse, Sydney
8 May 2012 – The Palace, Melbourne
10 May 2012 – ANU Bar, Canberra
