DARKEST ERA are a Celtic-influenced (somewhat, according to Krum) Heavy Metal band from Ireland, riding on the wave of Irish Metal coming out of the woodwork in recent years, such as PRIMORDIAL, CELTACHOR and MALTHUSIAN. With the latest album, "Severance", out in June of last year, the band have been enjoying a new era, touring the new material, recently accepting new drummer Cameron into the fold. Danny had a few words with vocalist Krum about the lyrical content of the new album and why people shouldn't immediately look to the Celtic moniker, how the band is getting along with their new drummer and his take on the Irish scene.
