 (6 Customer Reviews)
This was the album after the famous Jon Landau statement came to pass, and although there are still many references to cars and girls it is a blistering album. It has a similar energy that was later to be found on The River. He states in 'Something In The Night', 'soon as you've got something they send someone to try and take it away'. He repeated the themes again and again, and we loved it; maybe his fall from grace is because we ultimately can get by with just one song about cars and girls.

Rolling Stone (12/11/03, p.131) - Ranked #151 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "Springsteen and the E Street Band played rockers such as 'Badlands' and 'Promised Land' with barely contained passion."
Rolling Stone (3/20/03, p.68) - 5 stars out of 5 - "...The album isn't punk--Springsteen got a shave, not a mohawk--but it's colored by the raw sound happening at the time....stands as the E Street's best..."

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
my favourite one
in the same way as Born to run is the most spectacular and vibrant example of rock album, Darkness shows the introspective Bruce, full of anger and disillusioned.
This is my really favourite album of the boss, just listen to Badlands, Adam raised a Cain, Factory and you will agree, this is an absolute masterpiece, it made me think a lot.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Even better live
This is one of the great albums of alltime and if you've had the pleasure to hear these songs live -- either in person or on the Live 75-85 collection -- they are even better.
More passion, a little quicker pace and the heart of any Springsteen show.
Either way, incredibly deep lyrics, energy and anger.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Springsteen at his best!!!!
It never got any better than this from Bruce. Time has smoothed out the rough edges of anger and energy but this was when he was young. brash and brilliant. The album hums with power from start to finish. If you don't already got it, get it!!!!

Hot Heels Records is a Chicago based rock and roll and beatfolk band who now tours with members Brandon Seyferth, Marty Grossman and Aaron Hanna.Chicago. Sweet home before Alabama grabbed that title with its smudgy, hard hands and its affinity for putting aircraft on poles. Brandon Seyferth (pronounced ‘cypher’), a newcomer here, is releasing his first EP in March of ‘06 under the pseudo-band-name Hot Heels Records. After coming off a stretch of being assigned to the fame-seeking dilettantes who crawl over the music and art scenes of so many cities, I’m suspicious of him even as he walks in to meet me at the diner he had suggested on the corner of California and Milwaukee. That suspicion was my fault, my bitterness, and I knew it. But through all the pop stars and television smothering that presses down on us I miss artists. Real artists. People with something to say aside from ‘hey everybody, look at me!’ I was hoping that truthfulness I heard in his music would carry over to the man, but I was waiting for him to fall short. A waitress interrupts our hellos with a flashed smile and a pot of coffee as Brandon sits down, keeping his leather jacket on, setting a collection of poems by Joseph Brodsky and John Steinbeck’s “East of Eden” in the seat next to him. I wasn’t impressed that he brought books; a lot of people do that. I would learn over the next hour however that Mr. Seyferth is not a lot of people, and that I would not be disappointed.He looks out the window. “It’s starting to get cold.” I knew enough about him already to know he is twenty-six, an award-winning poet at twenty-two. Nothing about how he looked told me that he had wandered China without a penny or a plan for more than a year, or that he had lived in an oxygen tent for the first part of his life. Nothing told me he had worked and traveled the U.S. East Coast with a modern carnival, but he had. I would find out later that night that seeing him perform makes his eclectic background stick out in a distinctly educated ...

Tim picked up his first guitar at the age of 6, and then promptly dropped it. It seems it was too big for him. After licking his wounds, he swore off music, and moved on to pursue other...pursuits. (Is there a less clumsy way of saying that?) These pursuits did not include vocabulary. They did, however, include religion, theatre (most definitely spelled "-re"), philosophy, and even, for a time, swimming. (Tim was quite possibly the worst swimmer ever to enter competitive waters. In his two-year stint, he managed to win only one race. It was the ...
