-Kevin Stewart-Panko Decibel Magazine Nov 2012 Issue 97 “4/5! If You Haven't Given This Hard-Hitting Ensemble A Chance Yet Your Time Would Be Well Spent Getting Acquainted With Them. ...Dead Empires Is An Instrumental Endeavor Fluctuating Between Sledgehammer Riffs And Moments Of Light Repose. One Minute An Energetic Groove Grabs You By The Collar Banging Your Head Back And Forth Vigorously And The Next You're Smoothly Reclined Into A Comfortable Jazzy Interlude. ...Waiting In Waves Is A Fantastic First Full Length By A Band Who Is Striving To Earn An Audience.”
-Barry Adkins Better B# Music Blog Http //betterbsharp.Weebly.Com/ "4/5! Waiting In Waves Shows A Confidence In Song-Writing That Makes It Seem Like The Band Perfected Their Sound Two Or Three Albums Ago With A Creativity That Indicates They’ll Be Keeping It Up For Many More." -Sputnikmusic.Com Some Reviews Of MONUMENTS “5/5! The Skill Here Makes Each Track Seem Layered Genuine And Intense. Each Song Is Simple And Complex In Its Own Right… The Style That Dead Empires Delivers Is So Intense You Can’t Help Being Sucked In… It’s A Great Release And Its Weighted And Genuine. I See Big Things Coming For These Three Dudes From Poughkeepsie NY. So Remember The Name Dead Empires.” -Collin Trabacco Stereokiller.Com “8/10! It Is Pure Heavy Music Devoid Of Any Cliche’s Usually Associated With Post-Rock Sludge-Metal Doom-Metal Acts. The Dexterity The Musicians In The Band Display Over The Course Of The 4 Tracks Is Exciting Without Being Too Complex Or Pompous. There Is Also A Strong Emphasis On Great Songwriting And Memorable Musical Passages That Gets Stuck In Your Head Instantly. This Is A Great Demo From A Band That For Once Doesn’t Really Have The Usual Trademarks Of Any Genre Except It Kicks Ass.”
-Doommantia.Com “Monuments Is A Solid Up-Tempo Slab Of Progressive Sludgy Instrumental Post-Metal Guaranteed To Kick You In The Face. …their Video For “hello” To Oblivion Should Hopefully Convince You That This Is Worth Your Time.” -GroverXIII Thenumberoftheblog.Com “It Sounds Like A Fan Of Sludge Metal Got Together With A Fan Of Thrash Metal Added A Prog Metal Dude And Then With No One Dominating Their Influences Combined Powers Equally Like Some Awesome Metal Version Of Captain Planet. …really Heavy And Genuinely Intense.” -Theluxuryyachtreview.Com "a Heavy Familiar But Strangely Unique Band Of Instrumental Metal. Warning May Contain Toxic Soundgasms Keep Away From Children! "
...The Combined Assault Of The Guitar And Bass With Absolutely Angry Drum Parts Makes For A Psychedelic Sonic Spectacle Of Vicious Riff-Based Music. If You Dig Any Sort Of Instrumental Metal Or Post Rock I Suggest You Keep These Guys On Your Radar." - Misha The Burn Space Blog “New York’s Dead Empires Bridge The Gap Between Hardcore Riffery And Moments Of Thoughtful Repose. The Trio’s Debut Monuments Is An Ambitious Four-Song EP. With Rapid-Fire Riffs And Exquisitely Buzzing Bass Lines… The Group Go To Great Lengths To Provide A Set Of Instrumentals Which Won’t Disappoint.” -Barry Adkins "Monuments Is Intriguing. The Band Manages To Pack Quite An Array Of Metal Into The Four Songs And Twenty Minutes One Can Hear Sludge Metal Bits Of Progressive Metal And Bursts Of Thrash Metal. The EP Is Certainly Going To Get Attention From A Diverse Group Of Music Fans Especially Because Dead Empires Executes Each Style Well Without Being Gimmicky Or Inaccessible—and Without The Help Of A Vocalist." -TheSilentBallet.Com
