After a lengthy recording process, the collapse of a record deal and a triumph of the independent spirit, Richmond, VA’s This Time It’s War released their latest album Terror Plots this fall. The ferocious Terror Plots fuses elements of prog and modern metal with an aggressive political bent more often associated with the hardcore community.
A major force in the Richmond metal scene, This Time It’s War is currently playing in support of the album, which is available in physical and digital form directly from their online store and as a download through iTunes, Amazon.com MP3 and other major online retailers. This Time It’s War will be opening for Darkest Hour, Periphery and Veil Of Maya at the December 12th Richmond date of the Darkest Hour Legacy Tour.
