![]() ![]() ![]() 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 journey to reach this moment has seen Parkway evolve from metal underdogs to festival-headlining behemoth, off the back of close to 20 gruelling 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. 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.ĭarker Still, McCall says, is the vision he and his bandmates – guitarists Jeff Ling and Luke Kilpatrick, bassist Jia O’Connor and drummer Ben Gordon – have held in their mind’s eye since a misfit group of friends first convened in their parents’ basements and backyards in 2003. This, the PARKWAY DRIVE vocalist says, is a pretty good summation of him-self. Please note that the iPad is fully charged and normal temperature when this happens.In the kitchen of the Byron Bay home of Winston McCall stands a refrigerator, adorned on one side by a quote from Tom Waits: “I want beautiful melodies telling me terrible things.” I do have "TrueTone" on, but that shouldn't make the screen go completely black. Because the screen goes so dark, it's almost impossible to find Setting and set the brightness. The screen randomly goes dark, and the only way to fix it is in Settings. Working in a pitch black room, I was able to log on and turn the screen brightness back up to regular levels. ![]() I was able to see that the iPad was in fact on, although the screen was barely visible. Finally I took it into a room with no windows, closed the door and shut off the light, so the room was completely pitch black. When I opened the cover and tried to wake it up, it was completely black, and no swiping or tapping or button pushing would wake it up. I closed the cover on my iPad, which makes it go to sleep. I have an iPad mini (5th generation) running IOS 15.5. ![]()
