Darker Still is an album that exemplifies the band’s past and causes fans to wince in the present. It’s now clear that Parkway Drive will never hit the highs of “Boneyards” again, nor will fans see the dizzying “Carrion” in the same light. Darker Still is a far cry from emulating the same lightning in a bottle soundscape that launched this little Aussie band that could onto the larger, international scene. We thought we hit a road bump with Reverence a little patch work and improvement to fix the band’s current trajectory into butt-toting dad rock. It’s simpler to state that Parkway Drive isn’t Parkway Drive, or at least they’re not anymore. Once, this little band showed promise, earmarking the recurrence of the Australian metal scene and yet that promise is long gone. Review Summary: Hear me when I say: “I miss Reverence, but I miss Parkway Drive even more.”ĭarker Still isn’t Parkway Drive, or at least it’s not at all the Parkway Drive that should be.
