DARKEST HOUR ANNOUNCE NEW SINGLE AND VIDEO "WARRIOR"
Washington, D.C. metalcore pioneers DARKEST HOUR release their new single and video, "Warrior," today. This is the second single from the band’s forthcoming album, Suffer Divine, out on October 30.
“This song showcases our melodic death metal tendencies with a bit of a modern twist," says guitarist Mike Schleibaum. "It draws you deep into a fresh yet familiar DH sound. I love the progressiveness of Nico’s solo, the intricacy of Travis’ drum work, Deal’s devastating low end, John’s vocal delivery, and lyrical density. This album is full of both rage and technicality. It’s furious with focused intent, and this song is a perfect example of that in action.”
Vocalist John Henry adds, “Lyrically, this song is meant to reach out to the intrapersonal warrior. The internal struggle is often the most important battle we ever fight. This song touches on the idea of gaining control of your thoughts, actions, and purpose. It's meant to be fuel for action.”
Acclaimed filmmaker Thomas Mignone directed the accompanying video for “Warrior” for DOOM Inc.
Schleibaum says, "The video for ‘Warrior’ is heavily inspired by one of our favorite movies, Raging Bull AND one of our favorite music videos, ‘Mama Said Knock You Out.’ This video is both fun and tough at the same time.”
