8:18 is the fifth studio album by American metalcore band The Devil Wears Prada. The album was released on September 17, 2013, through Roadrunner Records. It is the first album without founding keyboardist James Baney, and the final album with founding members Chris Rubey and Daniel Williams.[5] It topped the Christian charts and came in at No. 20 and No. 6 on the Billboard 200 and rock charts respectively, selling 16,000 copies in the first week.[6][7]

Composition

[edit | edit source]

The band maintains their metalcore sound throughout the album, although the track "Care More" has industrial influence.[8] Artist Direct has also noted sounds influenced by hardcore punk and heavy metal,[9] and Ultimate Guitar described the album as melodic metalcore.[10] The title is an allusion to Romans 8:18.[11]
