DARKLING

About Me

Darkling is an all-original hard rock band combining old school metal with a new school heavy edge. Not alternative, not death metal just straight forward in your face rock-n-roll. Carefully crafted co-lead guitars, and a rock solid rhythm section, Darkling grabs the audience from the first note and doesnt let go until the last.

SinKing CD. Released in 2005.
