Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars I've been searching for this CD for a long time and couldn't find it.......2006-08-31

This CD is awesome, by far Stabbing Westward's best CD. I'm very happy to have it back in my collection.

5 out of 5 stars If you own ANY stabbing westward CD, make it DARKEST DAYS!.......2006-03-07

This album is damn near perfect, and as I type that I might as well take out the 'damn near' part and leave it as just plain perfect, because quite frankly, it is! From start to finish this album is what you want to hear. From the creepy into in the effect of "DARKEST DAYS" to the moving and ultimatly depressing "WAKING UP BESIDE YOU", a beautiful song about loss and dispair, you are drawn inside this album of the darkest nature, an album that explores subjects like death and adiction with such care and presision that you can't help but appreciate the talent behind every riff, behind every lyric and behind every single track. Standouts are the singles "SAVE YOURSELF" and "HAUNTING ME" as well as the steller "SOMETIMES IT HURTS", a song so truthful (as far as conveying the feelings after loseing a loved one in death) that I was actually braught to tears after hear it. "EVERYTHING I TOUCH" was actually the first song I ever heard by this band, and I was immediatly convinced that this was a CD to own. "THE THING I HATE" is one of the most in your face angry songs ever and it delivers the adrenaline rush that metal lovers need while listening to this album which overall gives you more of a downer feeling (it's mood music people) so it's nice to have a MOSH-PIT perfect song. "HOW CAN I HOLD ON" and "WHEN I'M DEAD" are standouts and worth a listen, but then again, so is this ENTIRE ALBUM SO BUY IT NOW!

5 out of 5 stars best thing i ever have in my life.......2006-02-26

i did not say that it is the best one.there are a lot of better out there.but i had this one in my darkest day.it fits my mood well at that time.i shall say it saved my ear and my heart.

5 out of 5 stars A Great Album.......2005-11-28

In the wake of Nine Inch Nails in the 90's, SW is arguably the best band that used a similiar approach to the angry, sad mood in music. Darkest Days, which was their best release, is very catchy but it also gets to you on an emotional level, especially if you're going through something difficult, or if you're just unsatisfied with the way your life is going (*raises hand*). My favorite song on this album by far is 'Waking up Beside You', it's got a great riff and the vocals are good as well. Most people know the single from this album 'Save Yourself', which is good but certainly not among the best. 2nd favorite track on the album is probably 'Haunting Me' or 'Goodbye'.

I havn't listened to their newer self-titled release but from what I hear they turned into some type of happy-go-lucky frat-boy band, and then broke up. What a shame. if you enjoy this I reccomend NIN (obviously), and Tool.

5 out of 5 stars UNDERRATED INDUSTRIAL BAND!.......2005-10-30

This is my all-time favorite band to bad they broke up.
but they have a different sound and there lyrics are meaningful
i can sit here and judge millions of bands that sound like them but wouldnt. they dont stand out like stabbing because of the sound.thats the only thing that matters. i am a big fan of dark eerie melodic tones and strings.this gives you everything i wanted to hear.
great pace great to eliviate stress.

the best song is: save yourself probably the best song of the last decade.overall i give this baby a 5/5 a underrated transcending masterpiece that only i can appreciate since they dont get any recogntion.
