Fresh from their successful Irish tour, Glam/Metal/Rock doyens The Darkness have released a new clip to go with 'How Can I Lose Your Love' from their life-changing and pants troubling Easter Is Cancelled album. Hot Press official Darkness correspondent/"fifth Beatle" Pat Carty - not featured in the video as he wouldn't sign the clearance forms following a frankly insulting offer of recompense - did ask Justin Hawkins about the song recently but received an answer of such convolution, which bafflingly referenced multiverse theory, advanced theoretical physics and Gwyneth Paltrow going through doors, that he lost interest half-way through and went back to the bar.

Carty's best guess is that this is a song about love and the problems it brings, but you can safely ignore such pontification and instead just rock out to one of the many delights contained on what is easily the hard rock album of the year. Our report on the three day tour that took in Cork's Cyprus Avenue, Belfast's The Limelight, and The Academy in Dublin will most likely appear in our Christmas issue providing a certain journalist gets out of rehab in time.
