The Darkness release ‘Rock And Roll Party Cowboy’ video

Rock legends The Darkness have stormed the UK Albums Chart with their eighth studio album “Dreams On Toast” out via Cooking Vinyl. It has entered at No.2 in the UK Official Albums Chart and reached No.1 in multiple charts including the Independent Albums, Rock & Metal Albums, Vinyl Albums and Album Downloads charts.

It is their highest charting album since their smash hit debut “Permission To Land” and “Dreams On Toast” has been universally recognised as their finest album in over 20 years. 

Celebrating the success The Darkness have released the video for the new searing hard rock anthem ‘Rock And Roll Party Cowboy’. Co-directed by drummer Rufus ‘Tiger’ Taylor and Darri3D, the gloriously outrageous animated video glows with the fluorescent lights of Sunset Strip as The Darkness perform to rabid fans. They channel the sounds of hard rock legends such as ZZ Top, Motörhead and Judas Priest with searing solos, hell-raising vocals and a fist-pumpin’ rhythm section to create a tongue-in-cheek reflection on the hedonistic, macho music scene of the 70s and 80s.

The explosive video is packed full of pyro and also stuffed with Darkness easter eggs, from the spaceship synonymous with “Permission To Land” to Justin Hawkins’ noble flying white tiger steed which soared above fans at Wembley Arena in 2004. The Darkness returned to the iconic venue for a triumphant performance at the end of March to mark the release of “Dreams On Toast” as part of their most recent sold out UK headline tour.

Regarding the video Rufus says:

Only three things embody what it is to be a rock n roll party cowboy these days. My dog, Don Vito. The international live music band group, The Darkness. And the fans around the world who support us so fiercely. This one’s for you.
