Controversial remarks by Justin Hawkins of The Darkness: "In today's society, voicing criticisms is considered unacceptable"
In the world of music, there have been some exciting developments this week. Let's take a look at the latest news.
Firstly, British rock band The Darkness have shared their eighth studio album, 'Dreams On Toast', this spring. The band is currently touring across the US and Canada.
Meanwhile, Yungblud has been making waves with several collaborative projects. The young artist announced a new single, 'My Only Angel', in collaboration with Aerosmith, arriving on Friday, September 19. This single is part of a collaborative EP called 'One More Time'.
Yungblud's connection with Aerosmith doesn't end there. At the Black Sabbath farewell show just weeks before Ozzy Osbourne's death in July, Yungblud performed a moving rendition of 'Changes'. He also collaborated with Aerosmith members Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, as well as Extreme guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, to perform a tribute medley honoring Ozzy at the 2025 MTV VMAs. The medley featured the songs "Crazy Train," "Changes," and "Mama, I'm Coming Home".
In a heartfelt interview with NME, Yungblud spoke about the impact that Ozzy had on him since childhood. Footage of Yungblud gifting Osbourne a necklace went viral before he took to the stage in Birmingham.
After Osbourne's death, Yungblud vowed to play 'Changes' at every show "for the rest of my life". This commitment is a testament to the profound influence that the legendary rock star had on Yungblud and the music industry as a whole.
Lastly, Justin Hawkins, lead vocalist of The Darkness, announced he will be embarking on a one-man tour for his podcast next year, taking place in the UK.
With these collaborations and tributes, it's clear that the spirit of rock music lives on, and new talents are keeping the legacy alive. Stay tuned for more updates in the world of music!
