ALSO, NEW SH*T FROM DARKEST HOUR

So, we’ve heard the new Darkest Hour album, The Eternal Return, and while I’ll leave a full review to someone else, I can tell you that the album shreds. With all due respect to Kris Norris, his departure from the band had no discernible effect on the quality of their music, and ex-At All Cost axe master Mike “Lonestar” Carrigan is a more than able replacement. Plus, saying his name makes me think of Spaceballs. Good times.

You won’t get to hear The Eternal Return in its entirety until Victory releases it on June 23, but in the mean time, the band has posted another new song, “Devolution of the Flesh,” on their MySpace page. Check it out; you’ll only hate it if you don’t like to rock.
