DARKEST HOUR Guitarist Releases LOCUS FACTOR Demos

November 13, 2007

DARKEST HOUR guitarist Kris Norris has uploaded the demos of LOCUS FACTOR to his official web site at this location.

Commented Norris: "This was the first solo thing I really ever did when i was about 20 back in 1997-1998. I had only been playing guitar for about 4-5 years non-seriously and I sat down at my computer and decided for some reason I was going to write a record in a week. So I started programming some drums and bass and added some guitars and vocals and this was the result which ended up turning into the band LOCUS FACTOR.

"Forgive me for the vocals, I am by no means a vocalist and this was all recorded on cakewalk 9.0 and I had no experience with recording or even trying to mix. The purpose of this idea was to try and bridge a bunch of different genres and ideas into one and the main focus was that it was called the EMMQ = The Experi-mental Music Quest."

DARKEST HOUR's video for the song "Demon(s)" can be viewed below. The clip was shot in a junkyard in Bowie, Maryland and the first day of the shoot singer John Henry suffered a painful bike spill and separated his shoulder. Pumped up on Vicodin, he probably had far more fun on the second day of the shoot.

The song comes from the Washington D.C. band's most recent album, "Deliver Us", which came out in July. The long-awaited follow-up to 2005's "Undoing Ruin" was recorded at the Warehouse in Vancouver, Canada.
