'''Empire Fall''' is an alternative music trio that came to prominence in the early 2020s, known for pioneering their self-coined genre, CyberCore, a blend of pop, metal, and electronic music. History and Concept The band's genesis is heavily rooted in a detailed fictional narrative, or "lore," that forms the foundation of their entire identity and music. According to this lore, Empire Fall emerged from the Mega City of Elderise, a dystopian metropolis characterized by extreme vertical social stratification—with the elite living in the skyscrapers and the poor confined to the Slums below. The group was formed by three principal characters who, in the narrative, reluctantly become the figureheads of a revolution against this oppressive system. They began creating music in 2020, with their politically charged themes directly reflecting their fictional origins. The band's lore is an ongoing project, detailed through an official web novel on their website. Members The three members of Empire Fall are known exclusively by their in-lore stage names: Bandit: Vocals, programming, and production. In the band's narrative, Bandit is presented as an 18-year-old orphan from the Slums of Elderise, whose creative outlet was originally poetry and songwriting. Vera Ogmike: Guitars, backing vocals, programming, and production. Mads Nakamura: Drums, backing vocals, programming, and production. It should be noted that the biographical information and personal histories of the members are intertwined with their fictional roles in Elderise. External biographical details, such as their birth locations in the real world or their full legal names, are not publicly disclosed, aligning with the band's dedication to its conceptual identity. Musical Style and Influences Empire Fall's style, CyberCore, is defined as a deliberate mixture of multiple genres, rejecting traditional musical boundaries. Their sound incorporates the heavy instrumentation of metal and rock with elements of modern pop and electro/EDM. The members have openly expressed an aversion to genre "boxes," stating that their music is inspired by a diverse range of styles including Pop, Metal, Deathcore, Trap, EDM, Hip Hop, and Classical music. They aim to push against the traditional "rules" often found within heavy music subcultures. Lyrically, the band often channels themes of anger, sadness, and hopelessness, using these negative emotions as a source of motivation for positive, revolutionary action within their narrative. Discography The band's output consists primarily of singles and EPs, including: ''Militia Underground: The Early Years'' ''Abundant Lawless Maelstrom (Muscled Up)'' ''Dissension, Pt. 1'' (EP) ''Dissension, Pt. 2'' (EP) Notable tracks include "On the Run," "Brutal," and "ICantWaitToForget."
