The Darkness‘ reunion will continue beyond their ‘Hot Cakes’ album and guitarist Dan Hawkins says that fans shouldn’t expect too long of a turnaround before a new record arrives.

Now we need to keep the output up, really.” To that end, Hawkins says the band members have already started looking head to the next release.
He explains, “Every day we set up our little [portable] studio and start jotting down ideas. It’ll be out in 2014. This year we’ll be touring and writing, then early 2014 we’ll hopefully be recording it or continuing to write it and get it out later that year.”

The Darkness’ Justin Hawkins has claimed that he “connects with a gay audience”. Speaking to the Guardian, the flamboyant frontman insisted that although his sexuality is his private business, he and his bandmates had found popularity with a gay audience because they’re not “men’s men”.
“My sexual persuasion is no one’s business but my own – but I’m easily persuaded,” he said. “Just kidding. It’s funny because it came up recently in a German interview. They reckoned that when you Google Justin Hawkins, one of the first things that comes up is ‘Is Justin Hawkins gay?’”
He then added: ”And I’d like to think that’s because there’s something I do that connects with a gay audience.”
Speaking about he and his bandmates’ style, meanwhile, he said: ” Yeah. I think we’re all a bit effeminate. We’re not men’s men, much as we may appear to be so.”
