    You could always try The Darkness. They just released their album in the last couple of weeks. Their version of Street Spirit is defianately worth checking out!!! It's on their website www.thedarknessrock.com

    curious to know what their version of Street Spirit sounded like i got it from a bad place :eek: frowned upon by some on these boards. i like it but it has gaps every now and again. did i get a bad copy or was it like that on the website. quite good though

    Just listened to that "Growing on Me" track by the Darkness!! Has Robert Smith left The Cure and joined a band with some dodgy old rockers???

    No robert smith has tallent the darkness are dredful. their music is crap and the bass player looks like the guy from spinal tap. only wild stalions can compare with their level of crapness.

    Just out of interest - getting back to electric six... can anyone recommend their album?

    Months ago an insider told me it was sounding dreadful, and their follow up single "Gay Bar" was one of the worst things he'd heard in years...

    But, ugh, I liked Gay Bar. It was short, but catchy enough.... anyway, does anyone recommend their album? (Just smile and say 'Yes' to convince me I should buy this album please :))

    If you like Gay Bar and Danger! Danger! you'll like the Album. It's not a great album but it's worth listening too. It's good to hear a group that don't take themselves seriously. And according to M. they are Zappa fans too.
