DARKEST HOUR Interviewed In Montreal; Video Available

April 3, 2009

HardTimes.ca conducted an interview with guitarist Mike Schleibaum and drummer Ryan Parrish of Washington, D.C.'s DARKEST HOUR on February 8, 2009 when the band made a stop in Montreal, Quebec during its Canadian tour with BORN OF OSIRIS. Watch the 15-minute chat below.

DARKEST HOUR has entered Baltimore, Maryland's Salad Days Studio with producer Brian McTernan to begin recording the band's new album, "The Eternal Return", for a summer release via Victory Records.

Things have come full circle for the group, which recorded its 2000 seminal debut "Mark Of The Judas" with McTernan.

Regarding the band's collaboration with producer Brian McTernan, guitarist Mike Schleibaum previously said, "We are excited to work with Brian again. He has been a longtime friend and supporter of the band ever since its very first shows in 1995. When we recorded 'Mark of the Judas' with him in 2000, it helped solidify our sound and define us as a band. Eight years later, it's time to do it again. With all the scars of our past to guide us, we look towards a new future."

DARKEST HOUR last year parted ways with guitarist Kris Norris and replaced him with Houston's Mike "Lonestar" Carrigan, who filled in for Kris during the Thrash and Burn tour.

DARKEST HOUR's latest album, "Deliver Us", was released in July 2007 via Victory Records. The follow-up to 2005's "Undoing Ruin" was recorded at the Warehouse in Vancouver, Canada.
