DARKEST HOUR: Listen To New Song 'Knife In The Safe Room'
"Knife In The Safe Room", a brand new song from Washington, D.C. metalcore pioneers DARKEST HOUR, can be streamed below. The track is taken from the band's ninth full-length album, "Godless Prophets & The Migrant Flora", which will be released on March 10 via Southern Lord Recordings. The 12-song effort was part of a crowdfunding campaign that the band launched earlier this year, with the ultimate tally netting the band well over 100% of the initial goal and allowing them to also create an album beyond their initial expectations. The band chose producer Kurt Ballou (HIGH ON FIRE, NAILS, CONVERGE) for "his obvious genius" (as guitar player Mike Schleibaum said) and recorded the release at Ballou's Godcity Studio. Artist Shaun Beaudry was commissioned to create a custom painting, giving the album a unique visual identity.
Schleibaum stated about "Knife In The Safe Room": "This song sets the tone for the album both lyrically and sonically.
"While this may be the most fierce album we have ever released, its depth and sonic richness are sure to be discovered as the listener dives in.
"Thematically this song has a dual purpose. On the surface, it is a classic DARKEST HOUR song, ripe with the reflection of today's bleak modern age but as you peel back the lyrics and ideas contained within the album story unfolds, one that is all too common in human history. This is the beginning; it is part bitter reflection of the way things are and part anthem for those who struggle to survive as the world encircles them.
"To quote Nina Simone: 'An artist's duty is to reflect the times.' With that, we hold a mirror to the face of all things truly horrific and give you 'Knife In The Safe Room'."
DARKEST HOUR has partnered with Southern Lord Recordings, which Schleibaum discussed, saying: "The band has a long history of working with Greg and Southern Lord, who originally released the vinyl version of 'The Mark Of Judas'. While working with Kurt, we became reacquainted with Greg. We've always respected Greg's work ethic, creative prowess and steadfast dedication to quality."
"Southern Lord is beyond stoked to be working with longtime favorites DARKEST HOUR on their upcoming album! Their tasteful, seamless fusion of hardcore and metal as well as never ending dedication to underground music is both admirable and praiseworthy," said Southern Lord founder Greg Anderson.

То что надо! Хоть кто-то идёт по своей тропинке. В альбоме 2014 года показалось, что начали облегчать, вот и ожидал ещё более мягкого звучания, а тут прям как раньше!
Не сравнить с пламенными, которые пламенными больше не являются. Более того перестали выпускать просто хорошую музыку. В альбоме 2014 изменили всё, но альбом остался неплохим. То что они выпустили сейчас... Лучшая песня это бонус трек Greatest Greed и то бред. Ждём альбома Darkest Hour!
