Empire is a Post-Rock quartet from Turin, Italy.
The band formed in 2013, after the four members played together in different projects since 2006.
Their music is a mixture of delicate piano melodies and raging guitar's distortions, heavily influenced by '90s alternative rock and movie soundtracks.

Their first EP, released in Summer 2015, was recorded in a two hours-long live session.
This was done to give the songs a more energic and honest feel, instead of recording every instrument separately.
