      Gaspare Burgio The song and the video are amazing. I will buy the record for sure. It just feels weird whenever any of the original 4 are out. It felt the same way when Frankie was out on the second album. The silence around his leaving was weird. I love this band so I hate to see any of them out of it. I hope he comes back.

    This is one of the greatest rock n roll songs of the last decade. Lyrically pure, musically clever, badass but danceable; delivery only slightly wry. Christ, I love the Darkness. I dont know what I'd do if I couldnt see them every year. One of the the best rock n roll bands Britain has ever produced IMO.

  • @jessemiles320

  • @evilutionltd
    @evilutionltd 9 лет назад +120

    Speaking about the style of opening track "Barbarian", Hawkins has joked that the song contains "not one but two dramatic monologues, a guitar solo that has been declared 'irresponsible', a riff that weakens lady knees" and a chorus that makes grown men shit directly into their pants"

    • @ColonelBlumpkin
      @ColonelBlumpkin 9 лет назад +3

      Evil from evilution all of it accurate, except that I - in fact - shat INDIRECTLY into my pantz. it's complicated. but yes, this fucking song rockz fuckingly

    • @DesertRainReads
      @DesertRainReads 9 лет назад +2

      Evil from evilution considering I hated this band in the past, and am actually getting this album today, that says something about how good this song is. I clicked on it originally expecting it to suck, but I was dead wrong, this is a classic rocker at its finest.
      Hawkins just about nailed the description too **LOL** I'm glad he is experimenting with different styles of singing and showing that he is actually pretty diverse with singing styles. I have to give them credit, they've pretty much won me over as a fan.

    • @ColonelBlumpkin
      @ColonelBlumpkin 9 лет назад +4

      IcedEarthaholic congrats on a wise purchase. i found that Mighty Wingz outrocks just about everything ... in the history of rock. the punk-head-banging riffs in Roaring Waters also very classy, indeed. this album is a lot of fun

    • @DesertRainReads
      @DesertRainReads 9 лет назад +3

      The C...MOnSteRs Mighty Wings is definitely an awesome song for sure, straight out of the 80's for sure, as is the rest of the album for the most part. Roaring Waters is also amazing. I've been cranking this album ever since picking it up. Great riffage found throughout, and this track just kicks it off perfectly.

    Only The Darkness could take a power metal song and turn it into a glam rock track. It's like driving a Ferrari across Miami, wearing a viking outfit. So strange, so british! That's why the video is so humorous. You won me again, The Darkness XD!

    To all those who don't really 'get' the brilliance of the Barbarian video or The Darkness for that matter - the boys are extremely good musicians, songwriters and entertainers, but they have their tongue very firmly planted in their cheek! That's why we love em! Too many people in this business take themselves far too seriously!

And when they played this track 'barbarian'..that's what turned me into a new fan...just wish this song was longer...as it is it's a masterpiece, the riffs are tasty..but can u imagine if it was a 7 or 8 min track...it would be a classic...sorry...it is a fucking classic...so glad I caught them live and appreciate what they do...fucking great stuff🤘🤘🤘

    Personally? Damn this song kicks ass. Permission to Land is their best album hands down. One Way Ticket was good and so was Hot Cakes, but both never really lived up to Permission for me. However I feel that this song alone shows that its going in the right direction. Great rock and roll, cant wait to hear more!
