Parkway Drive Announce New Album 'Darker Still,' Drop Epic Single "The Greatest Fear"

Australian wrecking crew will release first album in four years this fall

Revolver has teamed with Parkway Drive for an exclusive vinyl variant of Darker Still on "opaque yellow and black" colored wax, limited to 500 copies worldwide. Get yours while they last! 

Last month, Parkway Drive returned with their first song in four years, titled "Glitch." The track served as a triumphant message of reassurance that the band were here to stay in the wake of rumors that they were considering calling it quits, following a somewhat cryptic statement posted to social media back in April citing "the toll" the band's career was taking "on ourselves and our friendships." 

If there was even a shred of doubt left in anyone's mind that Parkway's career was on the fritz, then today's news should put that to bed. The Aussie metalcore titans have announced a new album titled Darker Still, the follow-up to 2018's Reverence, that's due for release later this fall. They've also shared another single called "The Greatest Fear," which features heroic guitar leads and a stomping rhythm that has kind of an Amon Amarth vibe to it. 

"The greatest fear, the one we all share; this song is about the unifying force we all must face —death," frontman Winston McCall said of the track. "The goal was to create a song that saw death not as something that separates, but something that connects us all on our paths. Musically, we wanted to create a song that did this concept justice. It's heavy, it's epic and when it stomps it leaves an impact."

Darker Still is due out September 9th via Epitaph Records and is now available for for pre-order in a variety of formats. One of those is a Revolver-exclusive vinyl variant on "opaque yellow and black" colored wax, limited to 500 copies worldwide. Get yours while they last!
