The Darkness have announced Permission to Land… Again, the 20th-anniversary reissue of their 2003 album Permission to Land. It will be released on October 6.

The reissue comes with a 4CD/DVD collection consisting of the original album, previously unreleased demos, rare B-sides, and live tracks from a series of London shows in the early 2000s.

“So much has happened since the original release of Permission to Land that I can hardly believe it’s only been 20 years,” said frontman Justin Hawkins in a statement. “Such turmoil, upheaval, the emotional rollercoaster ride of being nobody, becoming somebody, going back to being nobody, and loving every second of it!

He continued, “The past two decades have only been this eventful because of the impact that our debut album had. I’m grateful for every second of this experience and delighted to celebrate the 20th-anniversary of the best debut album by The Darkness of all time.”
