A bastard child born of the mid 90s punk/metal/hardcore movement, DARKEST HOUR combines the passion, energy, and soul of punk and hardcore with the style, speed, vengeance and fury of melodic speed/thrash/death metal. In this decade-without-a-name, DARKEST HOUR has defined the entire New Wave Of American Metal sound and gave the metal and hardcore punk world the revitalization it surely needed. This new style blended the raw, hardcore punk of the 80s with the Scandinavian death metal of the 90s and forged a sound that would later become the template for modern metal.
