NEWS: Underoath lineup changes, Peter Wichers gets more production credits.

Aaron Gillespie announced earlier this year that he was leaving Underoath, which leaves the band with no original members. With Gillespie's unique sound absent, both on drums and his half of the band's dueling vocals, it will be interesting to see what their next album turns out to be. Daniel Davison, formerly of Norma Jean, has signed on for the upcoming Underoath album and tour, but hasn't been confirmed as an official replacement. Davison contributed drums to the track "Desperate Times, Desperate Measures", on Underoath's 2008 album Lost in the Sound of Separation, the band's darkest offering to date. Jeremy Griffith, who brought us Norma Jean's latest album, Meridional, is signed on to produce. You can't see it, but I look very excited.

In keeping with their Swedish melodeath influenced sound, Washington D.C. giants Darkest Hour have tapped prodigal Soilwork guitarist Peter Wichers to produce their upcoming album, set for an early 2011 release. Previous albums have been produced by the likes of fellow Swede Fredrick Nordstrom and Canadian metal auteur Devin Townsend
