Darkest Hour have shared “Warrior,” the second single from Suffer Divine, alongside a video directed by Thomas Mignone for DOOM Inc. The announcement arrived on October 7, with the album scheduled for October 30.

Mike Schleibaum describes the track in terms of the band’s melodic death-metal roots and a contemporary approach, singling out Nico Santora’s solo. Singer John Henry frames its subject as the struggle to direct your own thoughts, actions and sense of purpose.

The album credits give guitar-minded listeners a clear starting point: Schleibaum handles rhythm guitar, while Santora is credited with lead guitar. Henry takes vocals, Aaron Deal plays bass and Travis Orbin plays drums. Mark Lewis is credited with production, engineering and mixing.

Those credits set out who is doing what on Suffer Divine. “Warrior” provides the next opportunity to hear that lineup before the full record arrives.
