THE EMPIRE SHALL FALL Release Promo Video For Awaken
October 8, 2009, 15 years ago
Providence, RI’s freshly-minted metallic hardcore powerhouse THE EMPIRE SHALL FALL has unleashed a promo video for their upcoming debut, Awaken, which is due out on guitarist Nick Sollecito’s own Angle Side Side Records on November 17th.
Featuring the vocal talents of ex-KILLSWITCH ENGAGE throat Jesse Leach, The Empire Shall Fall’s sound is rooted in metal/hardcore, citing luminaries AT THE GATES, MESHUGGAH and EDGE OF SANITY as major inspirations.
However, Awaken also draws heavily upon the band members’ combined interests in jazz, punk, and experimental music to create a compelling blend of melody, brutality, and sheer determination that is impossible to pin down and sure to intrigue fans of REFUSED, AT THE DRIVE IN, DEFTONES and BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME.
Fueled by political outrage and a never-ending search for truth, the band’s message is as potent as their music, and serves as a call to arms for a lost generation. Advocating positivity, unity, and empowerment and taking cues from legendary rabble-rousers and free thinkers like Jello Biafra, Benjamin Franklin, Cynthia McKinney, and Ron Paul, The Empire Shall Fall’s passion for and dedication to their political causes forms the backbone of the band and sets them a head and shoulders apart from their peers.
Check out the brand-new The Empire Shall Fall promo video below.
