One Way Ticket to Hell...and Back (20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition) 4CD Boxset

Originally released in November 2005 and came off the back of the bands muti-platinum selling debut ‘Permission To Land’ (2003) that had catapulted the band to stratigraphic levels, simultaneously forcing rock back into the mainstream consciousness.

Having toured relentlessly since the release of their debut, ‘One Way Ticket to Hell...and Back’ was one of the most anticipated albums of 2005. Written by Justin and Dan Hawkins, it was produced by Roy Thomas Baker (Queen, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie) and it was well received - Alternative Press rating it 5/5, Q magazine and The Guardian both gave it 4/5, with the former including it in its Albums Of The Year list. Upon release the album went on to chart well through Europe and beyond and has been certified gold in the UK alone. 

The Darkness celebrate the 20th anniversary of their gold selling second album ‘One Way Ticket to Hell...and Back’ with a 4CD set of the original album, b-sides, remixes, singles and never before released live at NEC, Birmingham which has been newly mixed by Dan Hawkins.
