MUSIC: The Darkness Frontman Injured.

The Darkness singer Justin Hawkins lost the use of his right hand after smashing it through a window while defending himself in a drunken scuffle with an attacker.

NME reports ...

Doctors had repaired severed tendons and Hawkins received a few dozen stitches. The singer's injuries are expected to take six weeks to heal.

The band's website states the following about the incident denying any altercation had occurred ...

You be the judge.

Pussy.

Bon Scott would've poured some whiskey on it, wrapped it in an old t-shirt, and gone on about his night.

And then die.

Touching yooooOOOOOoooou
Touching meeeeEEEEEEeeeeee...

Yeah, but you forgot to mention the whole choking to death on his own vomit thing.

Now that's Rock-n-fuckin'-Roll, baby.

I punched my hand through a window once, bled a bit but I didn't lose the use of it.

This guy is considerably less rock and roll than I'd first believed.

dude it was a stained glass window. you got to believe that would cause a little more damage than a regular one.

Oh didn't read that part.

Okay he's a tiny bit a rock and roll.

Stained glass? Why was he fighting someone in a church?

He was copying Robert Plant

Well, just as long as his vocal cords weren't damaged.

the darkness sucks

But what about his hair?
The Darkness is all about the hair.
Will he regain the use of his hair?

How cool would it be if it was total Billy Idol style -- like the whole fight started out with a motorcycle going threw a church window ...

no the hair is dead to us, let's talk of it no longer.

not the hair man. speak no ill word of it. For it shall rise up against all that oppose it. In church or elswhere.

I believe in a thing called musty wigs
Just listen to the rhythm of my harp

The Darkest they rock better my friend said I liked them better when they were in Defsnake

Awwww poor Justin! Get well soon man!

Punching thru a window while piss drunk is a rite of passage in everyone's life, isn't it? I punched thru a window when I was 15, severed an artery, lost 2 pints of blood throughout my best friend's bedroom, and broke a finger somehow. Good stuff!

really? I normally just fart lots and then throw up.

never once have I picked a fight with a window

My question is, is that the hand he uses to squeeze his testicles?

AMEN!

I fell through a glass door. But only my arm was damaged, almost cut off completely. And when your tendons snap and roll up into your gaping flesh wound, and your main arteries are spraying to the ceiling and quickly causing a puddle of blood to gather at your feet...Well, it was a bit frightening. And I'm a tough guy...I could kick Justins ass! But if you ever lost a fight with glass it's no laughing matter.

I hope this injory of his gets infected. Maybe then he'll stop flooding the world with his annoying as fuck voice and his cheesy Queen ripoff band.
