Star Wars-themed progressive instrumental band Galactic Empire have announced their new album Episode II. The album is out, appropriately so, on May the 4th via Rise Records. The album, which follows the band’s self-titled debut, is available for pre-order.
To herald the release of the new album, the band has dropped the new track “Scherzo for X Wings” which you can check out below. The band tells us:
While our debut allowed us to bring a new perspective to much-loved anthems, our latest technological terror is a darker, heavier and far more epic testament to the true power of the Dark Side of the Force. We are confident that any rebel strongholds that remain after the last cycle will soon bow before the Empire. There will be no one to stop us this time.
