Every Darkest Hour record is an experience to make (to say the least) and this record is no exception. It's been a lot of long hours and long days but the record is beginning to take shape and that is always an amazing thing to see happen. Who knows, [at the] shows in December, we might just play a new song or two!" The new effort will be tracked by Brian McTernan (The Bled, Darkest Hour) and will hit stores in early-2009 via Victory Records.
