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..."
Q (Magazine) (p.120) - "Lean, wired and reeking of frustration....[The album] sounded like the work of a man on the edge."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.112) - 5 stars out of 5 -- "Many of THE PROMISE's 21 tracks are R&B stompers and soul croons....This version promises enlightenment -- and delivers on a truly remarkable scale."

5 stars 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.

5 stars One More Rock Masterpiece...
'Rattle-snake speedy in the Utah desert...' Who else could come up with such an opening line...? Love all Springsteen's albums however this one IS something special.

5 stars 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.

5 stars 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!!!!
