Hidden Hands of a Sadist Nation is the third full-length studio album by American melodic death metal band Darkest Hour.

"For The Soul of the Savior" includes a solo by Kris Norris which replaces the last part of the original song.

Unterberger stated John Henry's vocals "crosses well beyond the bounds of (presumably unconscious) self-parody" and criticized the album's length.

If it's a joke, it's one the bandmembers should take seriously; they're really underselling themselves if they're capable of playing in a more versatile range of any sort, but elect not to by choice.
