Eats Darkness is Apostle of Hustle's third studio LP, released on May 19, 2009 to generally positive reviews. According to Andrew Whiteman, the album is "a serial poem about some struggles people go through. Battles, from the macro to the micro. Songs about tactics and attitudes needed in 'life during wartime'. Each track is like tapas at the banquet of conflict. A small contribution to the articulation of a fucked and beautiful world." [7]
