Washington, DC ist seit 1995 der Heimat der modernen Hart-Metaller DARKEST HOUR, die sich mit ihrer neuen Single irgendwo im Bereich des modernen Melodic Death bzw. Thrash Metals bzw. bewegen. Mit dem gerade veröffentlichten Song bzw. dem Video, kündigt der Fünferpack seinen nächsten Langdreher „Perpetual | Terminal“ für den 23. Februar 2024 an.
Die Band erzählt über die Vorabauskopplung:
„This is a whole Darkest Hour album in one song. It felt like the perfect album opener, eventually became the title track, and therefore is the perfect place to start as we present this new album to the world. Lyrically, it touches on all of the themes of the record — an album centered around the duality of survival and rebirth. Or, you could just say, some new music from old friends who just won’t ever give up.“

Lyrics:
This is a ravenous love
You get what you give in
But is it ever enough
I feel the pressure collapse
Out of breath
And out of time
Out of the one thing
You worked your whole life for
I gave everything to the night
Gave everything for the song
When I lost myself to learn
Everyday I am reborn
Separate my heart
Tear apart the flesh
Devastate and subjugate myself to an awakening
Perpetual
Terminal
