We’ve had our eye on Empyre for a long time, even before they played two sets on our stage at Wildfire some years ago, so we’re really pleased to see that they’ve taken the next big step and landed a contract!
Here are the details from the band:
These are exciting times for Empyre. Finally we get to share with you something we have been dying to talk about for months. Yes, we know that by our standards we have been a little quiet, but with good reason.
We’re very proud to tell you that we have signed a deal with the independent record label Kscope.
Kscope is home to progressive artists, largely within the rock genre. They embrace distinctive music and visuals, creative freedom and building a strong artist identity. Artists on their roster include Steven Wilson, Marillion, Anathema, Porcupine Tree, Tesseract and The Pineapple Thief to name a few. All of whom are certainly worth your attention, and we are proud to now be amongst them.
This is a decision we gave a lot of careful consideration to, and were only ever going to do if we really believed that the label was the right place for Empyre to be.
We feel that being with Kscope makes Empyre stronger, and their and expertise will help us in our upward trajectory to achieve more of our ambitious goals, and importantly, bring our music to a much wider audience.
Both sides have been fastidious and diligent to ensure that this is the right match, and that has taken some time and some planning. Now you can rest assured there will be news about new music from us very soon.
