The aforementioned musicianship is still prominently featured, with Ling and Kilpatrick throwing out some decent riffs in tracks like "Glitch" (with a riff that just compels you to stomp) and "Land Of The Lost". While this may place a ceiling on the quality of an album, this isn't to say that it is a bad album. It is perhaps a bad omen that Darker Still is perhaps the first release that only features one lone track that does this. While I've always found the band to be floating in my peripheral vision in terms of interest, they have been capable of producing tracks that easily become of the centre of the attention thanks to the solid musicianship within the band. With the band's glory ride cut short owing to live music going into enforced hibernation, the band pick up the slack and aim to make up for lost time with Darker Still. After a decade of building momentum with a series of genre-transitioning albums, they seemed to have reached a whole new level with 2018's Reverence. It's been a long time coming for Australian breakdown addicts in metalcore outfit Parkway Drive.
