To celebrate the 20th anniversary of their landmark debut Permission To Land, The Darkness have announced Permission To Land...Again.
Available in a few different formats, Permission to Land... Again packages together everything a fan of the British rockers could hope for, providing a never-before-seen-or-heard experience.
Highlighted by a 4CD/1 DVD package including the full original album, rare B-sides, bonus unreleased demos, as well as live albums from their iconic shows at London’s Astoria (2003), Knebworth (in support of Robbie Williams in 2003) and Wembley Arena (2004) and a 5LP version that mirrors the 4 CD tracklisting, Permission To Land...Again breathes new life into a modern classic.
Footage of the Knebworth and Astoria shows are captured on the DVD, as well as the music videos for their hit singles including I Believe In A Thing Called Love, Get Your Hands Off My Woman, Christmas Time (Don’t Let The Bells End) and more. There is also a History Of The Darkness documentary plus various behind-the-scenes footage and outtakes from the Permission To Land.
The original 1LP vinyl, which has long been out of print since the original pressing in 2003, has now been made available to purchase once again, alongside a new special blue/black marbled limited edition colour variant.
Permission To Land...Again will be released on October 6th via Warner Music. All formats are available for pre-order now via Maniacs.
Having further polished their eternal rock stardom alongside Guns N’ Roses at BST Hyde Park last week, The Darkness are heading out on a world tour starting in the USA in October and rolling into Europe in November. UK & Ireland dates have just been announced starting on 2nd December in Belfast, with further shows in Dublin, Norwich, Norwich, London, Glasgow, Manchester, Bristol and Nottingham, before the tour concludes on December 16th in Wolverhampton. Full tour dates and tickets can be found HERE
The shows promise to be a grand spectacle with the band playing the foot-stomping, guitar-wailing, groove-making masterpiece album in full, alongside a ‘Best Of The Rest’ set, stuffed to the gills with all the hits and fan favourites from their six subsequent studio albums.
