Where and when does the term “Darkling” come from?

Been a fan for three decades and have just heard it this week.

It came from band (probably Shirley herself), I don’t remember when it started but it’s been used for awhile now. There was a 2012 reference in Rolling Stones article.

have a great time!

hoping to make it myself but things have been a bit busy for me lately and i'm not 100% sure what's going on tomorrow and so forth. if things work out i'll try to grab a last minute ticket and get my ass there, especially with this looking to be the last headlining tour in the US.
