Delivering a tasteful blend of old-school doom/death-laden metal and dark, gothic rock, Denmark's Empire Drowns has finally released its debut full-length, Nothing, via Uprising! Records, following the 2013 EP Bridges.
On Nothing, the band has aimed for a heavier approach to their doom metal, and Marco Angioni at Angioni Studios (Tygers Of Pan Tang, Detest, Thorium etc.) was told to capture a sound close to the early 90s where The Academy Studio in the UK was the place where bands in this genre would prefer to record.
Nothing is characterized by an intense rhythm section and soaring melodic guitar work, atmospheric keyboards, which, together with the grim, growling vocals, create a heavy and captivating mood.
As songwriters, Empire Drowns showcases a refreshing diversity. Every song comes to life with its own unmistakable identity - yet this exploration of different musical paths results in an integral and pensive sound that Empire Drowns can proudly call its own.
