When Ohio-based metalcore unit The Devil Wears Prada tackled the undead apocalypse in their 2010 Zombie Ep, that release turned out to be one of the best horror-themed music projects of that year, even from a band not otherwise known for tackling horror themes. While those zombies have been (at least temporarily) vanquished, the band's creative energy was still coming from a similarly dark place when they dropped the full-length album Dead Throne the following year, accompanied by the music video “Vengeance” which made its world premiere on FEARnet (you can still watch it here). This year finds them very much in that same ominous groove with their album 8:18, which drops today from Roadrunner Records. There's not a zombie in sight this time around (although some more horror references do surface), but many tracks summon a dark and haunting mood, with the band often opting for a more suspenseful build than bursts of outright violence.
