Late Empire - Music

Born In Ischia An Island Certainly Not In The Central Routes Of Rock Thisorder Are Representing A Real Surprise And Their Multifaceted Rock Music Is Full Of International Ambitions. The Sound Of Bands Such As Pearl Jam Tool Or Alice In Chains Represents Just A Starting Point For The Band An Influence Assimilated And Subsequently Developed In A Striclty Personal Way. "Inner Island" Is Not A Mere Collection Of Songs But A Succession Of Moments And Emotions Affinities And Contrasts Like Playing With Space And Sound And Love For The Song Texture. The Album Was Produced Recorded And Mixed By The Band Between Ischia And Rome Then Mastered At Sterling Sound In New York By Justin Shturtz Who Also Worked With Fall Out Boy My Chemical Romance Seether And Slipknot. "I'm Sorry" The Concentric Opening Track Is Just An Example Of The Band's Writing Textures With An Alternation Between Moments Of Melodic Bursts Of Energy Which We Also Find In The Following Track "Fingers" A Song Of Which Thisorder Are Taking Special Pride For It's A Balance Between The Complexity Of Writing With Constant Changes Of Time And Atmosphere And The Overall Melodic That It Is Never Sacrificed. "Unus" First Single And Video From The Album Shows The Most Direct And Energetic Side Of Thisorder With References To The Modern "stoner Sounds" Of QOTSA Immediately Followed By "Rashua" A Track Which Moves Towards More Hard-Psychedelia And "Blood Upon The Wheel" Dominated By A Super-Low Distortion Which Refers To The Harsh And Acid Desert Rock Atmospheres. "The Bitter Hail " Is A Return To More Intimistic Moments With Melodies And Arrangements In Which The Word "progressive" Is Not Totally Out Of The Picture If Referred To Contemporary Bands Such As Porcupine Tree And Same Word Is Going To Last On "3 Dawns" Even Contaminated With Distorted Guitar. "Tomorrow Will Be Gone" Is A Further Example Of How Thisorder Are Playing With The Song Form Knowing In Their Own Way Of Being Very Classic But Without Giving Their Energy Up. "Fist" Is Also The Most Aggressive And Rebellious Episode On The Entire Album Followed By "Late Empire" The Last Album Track A Song Inspired By The Images Of Iranian Neda's Death. An Indictment To All Forms Of Oppression. Line-Up Emanuele Rontino - Vocals / Marco Albanelli - Guitars / Domenico Muscariello - Bass/ Marco Calise- Drums
