British glam rockers The Darkness is back! The band formed in 2000 and by 2006 had called it quit. Of course, they couldn't stay away - by 2012, they had reformed (which we mentioned the reunion tour).
Now The Darkness is back again with a fourth studio album Last of Our Kind.
If you missed them the first time or second time around, you simply have to catch them on this 2015 tour. People forget, but there is a reason why the British band won Best Live Act and Best British Band by Kerrang! and Best Group, Best Rock Group, and Best Album from the BRIT Award.
With this current tour, all the original band members have reunited, except for the drummer... who is Rufus Taylor, the son of Queen drummer Roger Taylor.

Britain’s rising new glam/rock band The Struts are taking on the US with their current tour promoting their album Everybody Wants. Their hit single “Could Have Been Me†is currently on the top 5 of Billboard’s Alternative charts, and the self-proclaimed ‘glamorous indie’ band has been racking up Best New Artists awards consistently for the past year. Lead singer Luke Spiller is a sight to behold, strutting around onstage like he was born to be there (hence where their manager thought of their band name). They do a killer cover of Lorde’s Royals, which we hope to hear when we cover their show at the Troubadour in Los Angeles this Wednesday, October 14th.

Los Angeles-based glam noir band IAMX will be playing in Minneapolis at the Varsity Theater on Monday, October 19th... of course we will cover the show. You should know we are big fans of Sneaker Pimps, which was created by Liam Howe and Chris Corner. When Kelli Dayton left the band, Corner took over as lead vocalists (which, personally, I felt wasn't the same band anymore). Perhaps he felt the same way, because since then, Corner started his own group called IAMX.
IAMX is part rock, part electronic, part burlesque, but all entertaining. They're known for their on-stage theatrics, so we're pretty excited to see what this upcoming show will be like.
IAMX's latest album Metanoia came out October 2nd via Metropolis Records (the same label who signed KMFDM and recently Skinny Puppy).
