DARKEST HOUR  - GODLESS PROPHETS & THE MIGRANT FLORA

This records clearly tears your roof off. Not only with sheer power, but with melody and the real timing to start songs. Within the magic 15 seconds you know that the Trash Metal drumming, the hardcore voice and this precise riffing guitars, combined with melodic soli and bridges, will take no prisoners. The band mange to set breaks at the right time, before the songs get predictable, and to put the right dose of melodies before the songs get one dimensional. "This is the truth" is THE song in which the essence of this album is concentrated. Personally, my absolute favorite Hardcore/Metalcore album of 2017.

"Inferno" is given for a precision in timing and songwriting, a capture of live sound and energy and a perfect artwork.
