Modern, aggressive, very groovy, very heavy and with clear
METALCORE influences is what EMPYRIOS is all about, so not
super interesting until we put on the record, because the
band also comes up with strong melodies and in the end it
seems that this EMPYRIOS is very interesting after all! The
band should be labeled next to SCAR SYMMETRY, INTO ETERNITY
and MERCENARY, so combining Death Metal, Metalcore, Progmetal,
Power Metal and some superclean melodies between some screams
and growls here and there. The result is very good actually,
with 12 tight songs that combine almost every metalgenre,
without every losing the melodies. The band by the way is
formed around guitarist SIMONE MULARONI of DGM, who was helped
on vocals by singer SILVIO MANCINI, a very good singer whom
is presenting EMPYRIOS with some haunting melodies not out
of place on a Prog Metal record. Hard to mention a favorite
track as every song goes in the same kind of direction, melodic
and modern sounding at the same time, although “Decadence
parade” is a very sensational song. Check the band out for
