The Darkness releases new single "Heart Explodes"

The Darkness releases “Heart Explodes”; listen to the new single

The track is part of The Darkness' , Easter Is Cancelled.

The Darkness today released the new single “ Heart Explodes ”, from their highly anticipated album Easter Is Cancelled , available October 4th via Cooking Vinyl.

“Heart Explodes” is a grand mini-rock opera, in which The Darkness explores the multifaceted pains of the heart related to the harshness, difficulties, and changes in relationships throughout life. 

The band's leader, Justin Hawkins, explains: “ It’s about the desperation of change. Having to reassess your life and what you’re relying on. It’s like that feeling when you just want to swim and keep going. Wanting to be enveloped by something that will gradually knock you down. If you really want to survive that process, you can. We’ve all been there – people who say they haven’t are lying.”

Guitarist Dan Hawkins adds: “ The difference between the sadness of The Darkness and the sadness of other bands is that we don't let ourselves be sucked into it. Even though it's sad, there's still a way to play with it.”

“Heart Explodes” and its predecessor “Rock And Roll Deserves To Die” are glorious examples of what we can expect from Easter Is Cancelled, the band's most daring and diverse work to date.
