Empire! Empire! (I Wish I Was A Lonely Estate) – What It Takes To Move Forward


Empire! Empire! (I Wish I Was A Lonely Estate) won’t win any prizes for having the catchiest band name around, but they could pick an award here and there in the Mineral or American Football Appreciation category.

On their debut full-length “What It Takes To Move Forward, an album that was two years in the making, they run around with crips rhythms and nicely floating guitars that occasionally throw a fit. That’s unfortunately also when the otherwise soothing vocals will sound more like wailing than anything else, a trait I’m not really looking for in a band. Other than that Benton Falls fans from all over the world should rejoice and pick up this album.
Score: 7 out of 10
