Darkfighter is the seventh studio album by American band Rival Sons, released on June 2, 2023, through Atlantic Records.

It was produced by Dave Cobb and preceded by the singles "Nobody Wants to Die"[1] and "Bird in the Hand".

Everley remarked that it has a "fat-free eight tracks" and is "a great album" on which the band "have emerged stronger than ever".

[4] Chad Bowar of Metal Injection wrote that Rival Sons have "balanced focused, straightforward songs with longer, more complex compositions" throughout their career, which carries over to Darkfighter, which also contains "numerous radio-ready bangers" like "Bird in the Hand".

Bowar concluded that Darkfighter "mostly lives up to the hype" and several songs "should become staples of their set list".
