Search - Damn the Empire :: With Trends Like This

With only a year between their first show (supporting italian hardcore heroes watch your step) and the release of 'with trends like these.' it's clear that melbourne 4-piece damn the empire waste no time. Their music is deliberate and impassioned, their discontent is palpable, and their scathing lyrics are delivered with a healthy dose of self-satire. Recorded over many months at hothouse studios in melbourne and mastered at the legendary blasting room studios in colorado, damn the empire's 'with trends like these.' boasts 16 blistering tracks (clocking in at a total of 20 minutes!) That will bring welcomed relief to anyone starved of straightup old-school - inspired punk rock with heart and humour. Damn the empire features bram presser and rory kelaart from yidcore and tommy williams of bad day down, along with bassist damon hughes.
