Through Our Darkest Days

Through Our Darkest Days is the seventh studio album by the Danish melodic death metal band Mercenary. The album features the band's newest drummer Peter Mathiesen who joined the band as a regular member in 2012 after performing more than 50 shows with them.[2] For the first time the cover artwork was done by Mircea Gabriel Eftemie the guitarist of the Danish metal band Mnemic. René comments: “The cover artwork portraits a dark atmosphere, symbolizing the darkness that surrounds us everyday. But in darkness there is always a light, which in this case is symbolized by a burning candle, and the figure that holds its eyes in its hands, showing a piece of the world as seen through our eyes."[3]
