The flamboyant band The Darkness is considered as the group that replaced Queen. But in reality, they have a truly unique style and energy. The combination of lead singer Justin Hawkins' high-pitched voice and their clothing style, like tight-fitting and low-cut outfits with eccentric patterns reminiscent of those worn by Freddie Mercury, long hair sometimes with colored highlights, make this band unique and distinctive, undoubtedly one of the most listened to by young people.

With their first album "Permission to Land", they climbed the charts and reached number one in Great Britain. This success is due to the tracks taken from the album such as "I Believe in a Thing Called Love", "Growing on Me", "Love is Only a Feeling", and the song that remained the longest in Mtv's "top ten" chart "Friday Night". Despite their music being rock, it is still very catchy, and the video productions are often comical, with original settings that always contain a good dose of self-irony. The other tracks on the album are also very beautiful. For example, "Love on the Rocks with No Ice" not only has a beautiful melody but also magnificent electric guitar solos and high and long notes from the singer that, combined together, make this piece beautiful and unique in its genre; and the track "Givin' Up" is one of the songs that most manages to convey energy to fans of the "Darkness" style.

In short, "Permission to Land" is an album that really deserves to be listened to, both by the younger crowd and by big rock listeners.
