“Twenty years is a milestone in any career,” said Parkway Drive singer Winston McCall in a press release. “The journey that has lead us to this moment has been insane, to say the least. We wanted to mark this time with a tour that represents who we are and where we come from.”

He added, “For the first time on North American soil, we are bringing the fully-formed version of the Parkway Drive live experience, and if that wasn’t enough, we’re bringing an all-Australian lineup with us. No compromise, no surrender. This is who we are — The Monsters Of Oz. Come celebrate with us and burn it all away.”

Parkway Drive released their seventh album, Darker Still , last year. In August, the band will unveil an expanded version of their 2004 debut EP Don’t Close Your Eyes on vinyl.

* Festival dates

"Darker Still" arrived on September 9 via Epitaph .

In the kitchen of the Byron Bay home of PARKWAY DRIVE singer Winston McCall stands a refrigerator, adorned on one side by a quote from Tom Waits : "I want beautiful melodies telling me terrible things."

This, the PARKWAY DRIVE vocalist says, is a pretty good summation of himself. It holds true, too, as one of the guiding principles behind "Darker Still" , the seventh full-length album to be born of this picturesque and serene corner of north-eastern NSW, Australia, and the defining musical statement to date from one of modern metal's most revered bands.

"Darker Still" , McCall says, is the vision he and his bandmates have held in their mind's eye since a misfit group of friends first convened in their parents' basements and backyards in 2003. The journey to reach this moment has seen PARKWAY evolve from metal underdogs to festival-headlining behemoth, off the back of close to 20 grueling years, six critically and commercially acclaimed studio albums (all of which achieving gold status in their home nation),three documentaries, one live album, and many, many thousands of shows.

"When PARKWAY originally started out, we all were trying to push ourselves to do more than we possibly could," is how McCall explains it. "What you hear on 'Darker Still' is the final fulfillment of our ability to learn and grow catching up with the imagination that we have always had."

To understand that growth is to understand "Darker Still" , both musically and thematically. Those who thought they had PARKWAY DRIVE figured out — the unrivaled energy, the high-octane breakdowns, McCall 's trademark bark — need reconsider everything they know about Australia's masters of heavy. "Darker Still" stands as the culmination of a transformative time that has seen PARKWAY reach new heights of creativity and success by eschewing the restrictive, safe conventions of genre and abandoning their own self-imposed rules in favor of a wide-eyed appreciation of bold new horizons. "There are compositions and songs that we'd never attempted before — or, to be more accurate, which we have attempted in the past, but not had the courage, time or understanding to pull off," McCall reveals.

And so while "Darker Still" remains irrefutably PARKWAY DRIVE , it finds the band sonically standing shoulder to shoulder with rock and metal's greats — METALLICA , PANTERA , MACHINE HEAD , GUNS N' ROSES — as much as it does their metalcore contemporaries. The album explores the concept of the "dark night of the soul," which is "the idea of reaching a point in your life where you are faced with a reckoning of your structure of beliefs, your sense of self and your place in the world, to a point where it's irreconcilable with the way that you are as a person," as McCall describes. "Darker Still" unfurls like the great rock concept albums, from PINK FLOYD to, most comparably, NINE INCH NAILS ' "The Downward Spiral" , its 11 tracks taking in ruminations on society's fear of death, isolation, and a loss of humanity in its journey to redemptive enlightenment.

This is the PARKWAY DRIVE the band have been striving to be for two decades. Guitarist Jeff Ling says it best: "I'm really proud of what we have achieved together, and feel that as musicians, we have really ascended to new realms of class and ability."

Great Band!!

Sound much better live and the Dramatics kept coming and coming!

By far the best band I’ve seen live so far !

I would definitely go to see them again .

The supporting Bands “Killswitch engage”

And “Thy art is murder” were also an epic part of the Gig !

Report as inappropriate

Parkway Drive Reverence Was Just AMAZING To Say The Least, The Band Was Full Of Energy And Put On A Spectacular Performance, I Will Definitely Seeing Them Again When They Come Through!!! And Killswitch Engage Was Just Amazing As Well Put Out Some Awesome Tunes!! Unfortunately I Missed Thy Art Is Murder, Didn't Get In Early Enough But From What I Heard They Were Awesome As Well!!! Love All Three Bands To Death!!!!!!!

10/10 show. Great setlist, amazing energy and the crowd was clearly there to party. Winston's vocals sounded incredible and the boys in the band crushed their sections too.

The "No moshing or crowdsurfing" rule was quickly ignored. Can't stress enough how fun the crowd was and PWD fed off that energy all night.

Parkway Drive announce North American tour

Parkway Drive will hit North America with Amity Affliction, Northlane and Make Them Suffer this September and October.

Parkway Drive have announced a tour of the U.S. and Canada this autumn as they celebrate their 20th anniversary.

Kicking things off in Atlanta, GA, on September 10, the Byron Bay bruisers will head out across North America with fellow countrymen The Amity Affliction , Northlane and Make Them Suffer for the aptly-named Monsters Of Oz Tour.

"20 years is a milestone in any career," says frontman Winston McCall . "The journey that has led us to this moment has been insane, to say the least. We wanted to mark this time with a tour that represents who we are and where we come from.

"For the first time on North American soil, we are bringing the fully-formed version of the Parkway Drive live experience, and if that wasn't enough, we're bringing an all-Australian lineup with us. No compromise, no surrender. This is who we are — The Monsters Of Oz. Come celebrate with us and burn it all away."

Alongside this month-long headline run, Parkway are marking their two-decade anniversary by reissuing their debut EP Don't Close Your Eyes on vinyl for the first time ever.
