After parting ways in 2006, The Darkness are back and have unleashed the first song from their upcoming new album — click through to watch the animated video for ‘Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now.’

Blending their trademark late 70′s/mid-80′s glam rock sound and their flare for comedic videos, The Darkness have managed to pick up right where they left off in 2006. The band reunited for their official comeback gig at last year’s Download Festival, and are currently finishing up their third full-length album.

The newly unveiled track ‘Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now’ is available for free download at the band’s official website TheActualDarkness.com and is the first new material from the band in seven years. The Darkness were just announced as part of this year’s Rock on the Range lineup and are currently touring North America with another band with that vintage 70′s rock feel — Foxy Shazam.
