Clocking in at over 56 minutes, The Darkest Road delivers fourteen tracks of technical, dynamic "Powercore Metal" that is the band's defining moment in music history. The opening track entitled T.P.N.E. launches out from the river's edge like a monstrous crocodile to an oblivious calf, immediately grabbing the listener and commanding them to pay tribute to the late Bon Scott of AC/DC. Next up is the title track The Darkest Road, which is an anthem to everyone struggling to make it over whatever hurdles they face in life. Keep your head up, one foot after the other, take the darkest road and in the long run, you'll be a better person for it." Other standout tracks on the album such as Vultures, and Silhouette showcase the band's technical abilities as musicians, easily placing them alongside their contemporaries. While the album is mostly intense, overwhelmingly heavy music executed with "glorious" precision, perhaps the biggest surprise on the album is Immortal. This epic, powercore ballad could easily redefine the metal genre, and is likely the catalyst needed to push the band to new heights of notoriety. A BREACH OF SILENCE was thrown into the spotlight when they won Australia's prestigious Q Music Award (2012) in the Best Heavy Song category. Shortly thereafter, the band inked a worldwide, multi-album deal with Eclipse Records, released Dead or Alive (October, 2013) and have toured with bands such as Born of Osiris, Adept, The Amity Affliction, and Upon a Burning Body. In March of 2014, the band released their controversial Night Rider 'first-person shooter' music video which was inspired by their obsession with FPS video games and 1960's classic westerns such as Hang 'em High and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.
