Empire Drowns - Endless Nights

EMPIRE DROWNS challenge the boundaries of melodic doom and death metal on their haunting new album “Endless Nights”. Drawing from the desolate beauty of Scandinavian winters and the raw intensity of East African landscapes, the Danish collective delivers a sonic experience where melancholy, atmosphere, and aggression collide in compelling fashion. “Endless Nights” is a record that breathes with its own pulse: melodic yet crushing, introspective yet vast, bleak yet strangely beautiful. - Across its tracks, “Endless Nights” weaves powerful growls, mournful guitar leads, pounding rhythms, and spectral keyboards into a cohesive whole that pays homage to genre titans like Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride, Katatonia and Anathema - while carving out an identity all its own. The album was recorded by Marco Angioni (Tygers of Pan Tang, Thorium) at Angioni Studios, and mixed and mastered by Tue Madsen at the renowned Antfarm Studios (Moonspell, The Haunted, Baest). The result is a deep, enveloping production that enhances both the weight and nuance of Empire Drowns’ sound. - Looking ahead, Empire Drowns will take “Endless Nights” to the stage in 2026, with live performances that promise to channel the album’s emotional depth and sonic weight into an immersive concert experience. This is not a studio project or a fleeting collaboration; this is a real band, committed to the long haul, ready to connect with audiences and make their mark on stages across Europe and beyond. - Strong melodies and a dark, atmospheric vibe reminiscent of iconic bands like Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride, Katatonia, Anathema, as well as Behemoth. - Featuring members from other relevant Danish metal bands such as Withering Surface, Urkraft, Meridian, Thorium, Street Fighter, A Sun Traverse, etc. - Recorded by Marco Angioni at Angioni Studios, known for their work with Tygers Of Pan Tang, Thorium, Withering Surface and more, and mixed and mastered by Tue Madsen at Antfarm (Moonspell, The Haunted, Baest).
