This Present Darkness is the debut EP and first major release of the American heavy metal band Chimaira. As of 2007, the EP has sold more than 10,000 copies, and it paved the way for the group’s first full-length album, Pass Out of Existence which would see a release the following year. Two songs from this EP, "Painting the White to Grey" and "Sphere," were re-recorded for Pass Out of Existence.
