The band name The Dark currently refers to more than one artist; (1)The Dark formed in 1978 by Phil Langham (bass), Jim Kane (drums), John Flannagan (vocals) and Billy O'Neil (guitar). Original line-up rehearsed for some time, then early 1979 saw the joining of guitarist Andy Riff (ex-Rotting Klits/The Suspects and a former Menace roadie)- that is when everything started. The band rehearsed in The Mitre pub in Islington, London, and there they met Noel Martin, ex-Menace drummer, who offered to be their manager.
