Joining the Kscope family, and with new album Relentless, British band Empyre bring their distinctive brand of dark rock to a wider audience. The band blend their huge riffs with deeply personal lyrics, brought to life by the impassioned vocals of frontman Henrik Steenholdt.
Bursting straight out of the gates with the title track Relentless, the catchy new single has Steenholdt using his emotive lyrics to comment on the ‘survival of the fittest’ attitude in today’s world. Backed by an intense instrumental, the song oozes Empyre’s trademark atmospheric attack, sometimes warm and enveloping, but with a hint of seething and contempt.
Fans of Porcupine Tree, Haken, Green Carnation and even Muse will find much to love in Empyre’s brand of atmospheric rock, the dark and introspective edge topped with Steenholdt’s richly recognisable vocal. Relentless as an album ranges from “triumphant, chest beating rock” (BBC introducing) to introspective, emotive cuts showing the band’s breadth and proficiency in embracing light and shade.
