I thought the same when reading the article. Dark matter doesn't just seem solid - it has even has mass :)

Dark energy is a whole different story and seems more like the epicycles of the heliocentric model: Adding a mathematical hack in order to fit the model into the data.

I'm remain curios about stationary universe model proposed by Peter Ostermann [1] which can explain the SNe-Ia data with homogeneously distributed dark matter and without a need for dark energy. Also, it is a lot more elegant and "Einsteinian" than the concordance model.
