DarkFlow – Review IMMINENT END
published, 1st of june 2025
DarkFlow is the progressive Shock Rock/Metal act from Switzerland, in which its founding members are Sean Horror (singer/lyricist) and Flow (Lead Guitar/composer). The idea to create DarkFlow was to follow the line and tendency of bands like Alice Cooper, King Diamond, Rob Zombie, Ghost. DarkFlow is a band with many influences but it keeps its originality, the idea of being a Shock Rock/Metal act is to be free to explore many different styles of music inside the rock/metal vibes and to create its own metal theatre – disturbing – provocating – shocking.
Sean Horror about the theme of their third album Imminent End
I’ve seen and felt what it is to be dead, I know what it is to feel scared of the future so I wanted to write an album whith all those horrible feelings, thanks to Flow for creating a music that embodied the central intention of our Imminent End album. This album is not far from the world’s actual situation.“
With their third album DarkFlow underline their expanding songwriting quality and are now one of the leading Shock Rock/Metal Bands. Fantastic guitar solos, heavy-hitting drums and Sean Horrors powerful voice let you immerse deeply into the songs which are perfectly complemented by symphonic orchestration and choirs. Electronic elements make Artifical Doom unique. Draining all Hope is an absolute headbanger. The thrashmetal track Push the Bottom I’m sure will be going to drive the crowd crazy at concerts.

I highly recommend to listen to this awesome album on the limited edition red splatter vinyl. You will get an unique sound experience ! Order it on their Bandcamp https://darkflowofficiel.bandcamp.com/album/imminent-end
