D.C. metal band Darkest Hour have announced their signing to MNRK Heavy with a new album on the way in early 2024.
As well as the band’s 10th studio album coming early next year, the label will also reissue their 2017 studio album, Godless Prophets and the Migrant Flora, on several vinyl variants and digitally on DSPs. The album was produced by underground legend Kurt Ballou (Converge) at his Godcity complex.
Mike Schleibaum, Darkest Hour guitarist, says of their new label home:
“We are beyond excited to announce our partnership with MNRK HEAVY! We have been working for years with members of their team on various other projects and know they will help give our new album the worldwide release it deserves. We have always strived to bring our unique blend of thrash, metal, hardcore, and punk to the largest audience possible, and with the massive reach of MNRK, we are confident and ready to begin the next chapter of our band’s story.
“’Godless Prophets and the Migrant Flora’ has always held a special place in our hearts and in our discography. Over the process of working on this re-issue, our love for this album has only grown deeper. We are happy to announce the vinyl variants and its re-emergence on worldwide streaming services.”
