The Darkness have confirmed that they have made a selection of their B-sides and bonus tracks available for download through their website. The band have also added more dates to their ever-expanding Christmas UK tour.

Among the downloads available are the seven B-sides featured on the singles taken from the album ‘Permission To Land’, ‘I Believe In A Thing Called Love (Live At Knebworth)’, Christmas #2 single ‘Christmas Time (Don't Let The Bells End)’ and the Japanese-only bonus track ‘Holding My Own’.

The band have confirmed that tour support will come from Ash and newcomers Do Me Bad Things.
