Darkest Hour announce new dates


Darkest Hour (2009) DARKEST HOUR have announced a headlining tour this fall with dates spanning coast to coast. Celebrating their 15 year anniversary as a band they will be playing selections spanning from their debut full length "Mark of the Judas" to their latest release. Included will be the epic instrumental "Veritas, Aequitas" along with other surprises from their catalog. "This band has taken us from the basements of northern Virginia to literally all around the world. In our many years of full time touring and 6 albums we've had the time of our lives. To celebrate this we've decided to do a tour we feel reflects the history of the band. This tour is for every one of our fans and friends who have supported us along the way, and for those who have never seen us this will be the perfect way to check out what we're all about” says frontman John Henry.

Joining them will be VEIL OF MAYA, PERIPHERY and very special guest opener, which will be announced soon. "We're excited to have some great younger bands on tour with us for this run. All of the support bands are very impressive metal hybrids with their own distinct sound, which will make for many nights of sick metal riffage.” says guitarist Mike Schleibaum.

Today through Monday early sale tickets will be available only through Artist Arena with registration at: http://tixx1.artistarena.com/darkesthour/
