The Darkness have dropped dramatic new single 'I Hate Myself' from their upcoming album

The Darkness have shared their latest single 'I Hate Myself', taken from their upcoming album 'Dreams On Toast'.

The track arrives alongside a one-take music video directed by Simon Emmett. "I love working with Simon Emmett. Everything we have collaborated on has turned out great so far. This is no exception," frontman Justin Hawkins explains.

"The concept is related to the self-loathing that the song itself lyrically explores. And I feel like the visual accompaniment has taken this song to the next level, and it was already my favourite Darkness song ever. I can't wait for everybody to see it – it means a lot to me… and I'm here for the conversation. I love you all. I just hate myself."

'Dreams On Toast' will arrive on 28th March via Cooking Vinyl.
