The new effort, to be called \"Deliver Us\", is expected to be released July 10 on Victory Records. Declares Ryan Parrish:

\"The Warehouse in Vancouver, BC hasn\'t rocked this hard since AC/DC, Nine Inch Nails and Bryan Adams recorded here.\"

Adds Paul Burnette, the always understated bassist of Darkest Hour: \"I expect the new record to be a subversive tool of godless Communism that will break down the morals among youth!\"

According to guitarist Mike Schleibaum:

\"There\'s some punk, metal, thrash, shred, prog, and even a little of [producer] Devin Townsend\'s special sauce mixed in this metal gumbo.\"
