Hot Leg – Heroes

“It ain’t easy being a hero”

I was really sad when the Darkness broke up. I liked their first album but loved the second… and then they imploded. Luckily, frontman Justin Hawkins is back with a new band that doesn’t sound all that different than his last one. They haven’t released much yet, but apparently an album is on the way fairly soon. Heroes is a teaser track offered by the band themselves, and it’s pretty much devoid of the high level of camp that the Darkness was so well known for. Instead, it’s a straight-ahead punky rocker. Although I’ve heard it won’t be a part of the actual album, I think it would make a great addition if they polished up the production a little.
