Darkest Hour‘s eleventh studio album “Suffer Divine” is officially out. Surfacing online alongside it is a music video for the latest single to be launched from it, “Salvation“. If you’re keeping count at home, this latest clip from the Swedish melodic death metal-inspired metalcore outfit is the third of four music videos the group shot with director Thomas Mignone (Mudvayne, Slipknot) for this album cycle. Visual offerings for the title track and “Warrior” preceded it.
Guitarist Mike Schleibaum commented of the album now being in the hands of their fans:
“‘Suffer Divine‘ is a love letter to melodic death metal. While it stays true to our core sound, it also pushes the sound of our band forward with precision focus. It has so many dense layers; we’re very excited for listeners to get to know it and really dig into it. It’s a guitar-focused record for sure, and you really hear the heightened guitar approach Nico and I have been developing over the past few records. But I also love the lyrics, John’s vocal performance, Deal’s thunderous sound, and the insanity that is Travis Orbin’s drumming. Can’t believe it is finally out, jam it now, and make sure you crank it up loud!”
