'''''Godless Prophets & the Migrant Flora''''' is the ninth studio album by American [[Metalcore]] band [[Darkest Hour (band)|Darkest Hour]]. It is set to be released worldwide on 10 March 2017. Preorders will be released through their Indiegogo Campaign and normal purchases will be released through Southern Lord Recordings. The album marks the return of former guitarist Kris Norris who previously played with the band from 2001-2008, to contribute some additional guitar work. Special Editions of the album will include their first ever full-length live DVD at the Black Cat in 2015 where they played a special show to celebrate the 10th anniversary of [[Undoing Ruin]] by playing the album in its entirety. Among the songs released on youtube so far, 'Knife in the Safe Room', 'Timeless Numbers', 'Those Who Survived', 'Another Headless Ruler of the Used' and 'In the Name of Us All' I am playing a hardcore oriented metalcore sound that makes me remember the earliest time the song is the origin of the band, and melodic death metal elements that have been intensifying since the early 2000s are almost hiding. Just like 'The Misanthrope' and A new album that pushed out hardcore tastes that can also be said as the origin return to the early days of 'The Prophecy Fulfilled'. Kurt Ballou (CONVERGE) was a recording engineer and produced last autumn. Melody intrinsic to a complicated musical composition wrapped in low quality sound is an impression that skillfully extracted and refined the essence of DARKEST HOUR and finished to be a culmination of 21 years of career as a culmination.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://diskunion.net/diw/ct/news/article/1/64431 |title=DARKEST HOUR - Godless Prophets And The Migrant Flora DIW PRODUCTS GROUP |date= |accessdate=2017-02-03}}</ref> |
