Darkness: Coldplay Should "Burn In Hell"

 

The Darkness have sensationally slammed Coldplay frontman’s Chris Martin’s ‘narcissistic’ attitude, and are forced to buy their own LPs to prevent a premature internet leak.

 

Justin Hawkins has openly criticised Coldplay and U2 frontmen Chris Martin and Bono over their public opinions. When asked by Kerrang! Magazine which public figure should burn in hell, Hawkins replied, “Chris Martin. What are those seven deadly sins again? Greed? Sloth?”

 

“Calling your child Apple? He’s terribly vain. I think he has a narcissism complex. He wants to be Bono, but he bleats in interviews about worrying about being ubiquitous. Make your fucking mind up. If you want to be a household name, be a household name.

 

“Writing ‘Fair Trade’ on his hand. If you’re concerned about Fair Trade, tattoo it on your skin, don’t just fucking write it on your hand in felt tip.”

 

Hawkins also claimed he hates Bono’s egotistical ‘holier than thou’ attitude saying, “I hate people being holier than thou. Like Bono getting an audience with the Pope, was all for Bono’s ego.”

 

In other news, it has emerged that Justin Hawkins has been doing a little shopping on eBay – for his own album. Hawkins has bought back a copy of his new album after finding it on sale online to prevent an internet leak.

 

The album, 'One Way Ticket To Hell...And Back', isn't released until November 28, however Justin explained,

 

"I've bought our own album back off this character who's selling it on eBay. It cost me £350 and it's going to be a tenner when it's in the shops - with artwork.

 

"It's encoded so we'll have a name and a number,” he continued in an interview with the BBC, “So we'll know which disc it is, who distributed it and who they distributed it to.

 

“And that person is going to go down. He is either going to get some sort of legal intervention or he certainly won't receive an album from our record company ever again."

 

The band release their comeback single 'One Way Ticket' on November 14.

 

The band will also be hitting the road in the New Year. Tickets go one sale tomorrow morning (November 11) from 9am from the Xfm Xchange on 0871 222 1049 or from the Xfm Online Ticket Shop by clicking here. The following dates are confirmed:

Justin Hawkins: Chris Martin Should Burn In Hell

And Bono too...

By: Scott Colothan on 09/11/2005

 

Justin Hawkins has sensationally slammed Chris Martin and Bono, saying that the Coldplay frontman should burn in hell.

 

In the outspoken interview, he also said that he hates Bono’s egotistical ‘holier than thou’ attitude.

 

Asked which star should burn in hell, Hawkins replied, “Chris Martin. What are those seven deadly sins again? Greed? Sloth?”

 

“Calling your child Apple? He’s terribly vain. I think he has a narcissism complex. He wants to be Bono, but he bleats in interviews about worrying about being ubiquitous.

 

“Make your fucking mind up. If you want to be a household name, be a household name.”

 

In the Kerrang! interview, he ranted on: “Writing ‘Fair Trade’ on his hand. If you’re concerned about Fair Trade, tattoo it on your skin, don’t just fucking write it on your hand in felt tip.”

 

Turning his attention to Bono, Hawkins blathered “I hate people being holier than thou. Like Bono getting an audience with the Pope, was all for Bono’s ego.”

I think business is business, Chris doesn't care at all at what this guy has to say to promote his new album. At least, leave aside Apple: she's just a lovely little girl who can't reply to this :( :( :(

:lol:

i love it when "celebrities" make dumb comments about perfectly awesome people whenever they've got something to sell. :dozey:

 

bono and chris (and apple :lol: ) are way too good to even be in this guy's vocabulary.

That's just plain ridiculous. How some artists have to diss others just to get some space in a newspaper. Oh man grow up.

What a prick :confused: :smug:

This comming from a man that hugged a huge purple monster' date=' and that tried to bring back 80s hair band. :rolleyes:[/quote']

 

My thoughts exactly! His comments have no ground whatsoever to stand on :rolleyes:

:angry: I'm glad that I didn't buy their album :lol:

oh man he sucks, it was kinda fun their first song, but not something to take seriously, for the rest they just suck... I think all those tight outfits cut of blood circulation... Like yeah right, like he's gonna sell more then 5 albums in the stores... Stupid musicnoob!

wtf does he think he is? yeah, like the darkness is that good anyway! :P

Not only is The Darkness about the worst band ever.

 

He doesn't even have a right to lick Coldplay's shoes.

 

And HOW does naming your daughter Apple have to do with being narssitic? And VAIN? Have you SEEN the state of some of his clothes and his over-grown, unshaven stubble.

 

Whatever.

the lead singer looks like a crack whore..who the fuck does he think he is..what an ass Darkness suck the big donkey dick!

:dozey:

:lol:

I HATE The Darkness with a buring passion!

:angry: :angry: :angry:

Not just cos of this...I always have. Awful awful band.

 

I'm gunna drag up my old Anti-Darkness thread of yore :idea2:

I don't see the Apple/vain connection either.
