Since their inception twenty-one years ago, DARKEST HOUR has released eight studio full-lengths via eleven different record labels, has appeared in major motion pictures and US television shows, video games, and has toured the world extensively covering six of the seven continents. A bastard child born of the mid-1990s, DARKEST HOUR combines the passion, energy, and soul of punk and hardcore with the style, speed, vengeance, and fury of melodic speed, thrash and death metal. The band has helped defined the entire New Wave Of American Metal sound -- blending the raw, hardcore punk of the '80s, with the Scandinavian death metal of the '90s - forging a sound that would later become the template for modern metal.

While many of their contemporaries have decided to hang it up, DARKEST HOUR is still charging ahead with invigorated spirit. In 2016, the same rabid fan base that helped propel the band into the national spotlight helped push them to reach another milestone by crowd funding their ninth LP, Godless Prophets & The Migrant Flora. The band then partnered with California based Southern Lord Records to help complete the release and distribution of this fan fueled release. Produced by underground legend Kurt Ballou (Converge) at his Godcity complex, and drawing from the band's extensive performing experience, this album helps solidify DARKEST HOUR's legacy as a major metal powerhouse. Raw as all hell, musically complex, melodic, yet cutting with razor blade precision, Godless Prophets & The Migrant Flora is fierce and hungry for blood.
