Darkest Hour - Demon(s)

 

Machine Head with friends visited Sweden, their second gig during the European tour. Arenan, Fryshuset was their hangout during this evening. Darkest Hour was the first band out during that evening, a bunch of incredible "Down to Earth" dudes. One odd thing was that the guys really liked purple, Mike C had dyed his hair purple, John H was dressed in purple, Mike S had a purple t-shirt, their guitar case was purple. At one point I actually had to ask why all this purple, Mike C said "We just want to be a little crazy"

Darkest Hour is an American heavy metal band from Washington, D.C., formed in 1995. Though failing to break early in their career, the band has received acclaim for their albums Undoing Ruin, Deliver Us, and The Eternal Return. The latest and seventh release from the band is "The Human Romance". The album was released on February 22, 2011

Bring Me The Horizon - Visions

Bring Me the Horizon are a British metalcore band from Sheffield, Yorkshire, who formed in 2004. Their name is derived from the last line of the film Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, in which Captain Jack Sparrow says "Now... Bring me that horizon." They have released three studio albums and one extended play and Remix album.

That the band's latest album have been played much at my home recently, I will give all the credit to Robert "Chief Rebel Angel" for the introduction, BMTH has never been a big favorite at my house until I earlier this year became convinced during a evening in the sign of rock, after that i gave BMTH chance and I was hooked. During almost the whole summer have BMTH latest record been spinning nearly constant and is virtually overplayed at this point. So a tune from them today, does it make sense?

Todays tune "Visions" is the brand new video from the third full-length studio album "There Is a Hell, Believe Me, I've Seen It. There Is a Heaven, Let's Keep It a Secret". The clip was directed by Plastic Kid, the alter ego of Copenhagen-based avant-garde graphic designer and filmmaker Jakob Printzlau. Enjoy!



Simon Neil of the band Biffy Clyro chose the album as his choice in an article on the "It is one of the best metal records I have heard in years: jam-packed with ideas and energy, and, most importantly for a metal record, the vocals don't make you cringe."
