Originally Appeared In

There have only been a select few that can claim the sustained ferocity and relevance over the last fifteen years that Darkest Hour can. Quite simply, they are a metal phenomenon. Mastering, ascending and maturing from each album they have created, Darkest Hour return with their seventh studio album ‘The Human Romance’. With fangs bared, unstoppable and more menacing than ever with every passing riff and scream “This is how metalcore should be: layered, dynamic, passionate… easily the best Darkest Hour have been” – Rocksound

Devildriver has always been a band on a three-pronged mission: Work hard, rock harder, and kick as many asses as possible in the process. Since their inception Devildriver have made a monstrous impact on the metal world with their thunderous grooves, haunting vocals and crushing live performances.


Devildriver tear through metal again with ‘Beast’, their fifth studio album an exorcism of animalistic primal hooks, death metal percussion and propulsive thrashing with Rocksound calling ‘Beast’ “pure fucking class” and Revolver magazine declaring “From the bowels of hell, Devildriver has unleashed a “Beast” that will leave a trail of bloody scars and broken bones wherever it may roam”.


While many bands in modern metal are already withering away, Devildriver have proven to mutate, grow stronger, deadlier and become more immortal than ever. Don’t miss your chance to see modern metal as its best this May.
