Following their much-acclaimed debut album,“The Burying Point” (released on April 28, 2023 via Fiend Force Records, licensed by Massacre Records), DARKER DAYS has unleashed a new single – a cover version of “Deep Dark”, originally performed by influential US horror punk band Mister Monster!
Mister Monster’s only album is considered to be an early genre classic of the second phase of horror punk, and it became influential to lots of bands of the second and third horror punk phase. Salem, Massachusetts-based DARKER DAYS have recorded their version of the song as part of a tribute compilation which has been in the making so long that the band decided to release it now and to celebrate their appearance at the hugely popular Horror Hound Weekend in the US, where they will not only play a show with the leading modern horror punk Band Blitzkid but also appear at the convention with horror legends like Robert Englund or Rose McGowan.

Says DARKER DAYS guitarist and song writer Nick Sullivan about “Deep Dark”:
“Mister Monster is legendary. For us they are right up there with Blitzkid, AFI and the Misfits as one of our biggest influences as a band. Jason was always so kind to us while we were coming up in our
early years with previous bands we were all in. We had always talked about doing a Mister Monster cover, and it wasn’t easy choosing any of their songs. We all love “Deep Dark” and felt like it was the perfect song for our style.”
