I have been playing guitar for 15 years. Even after all this time, its still an important outlet I crave. 7 years ago I started writing for THE BIRTH OF AN EMPIRE, a melodic deathcore band based out of the Twin Cities. Having the songs finished composition-wise, we could never get passed the garage band demo sound after recording. With Mixcraft 4 and no knowledge about production, I continued to record the 5 track EP over and over.
Finally, 2 years ago we recorded the EP for the last time with our friend John Riviere. With his equipment, and relaxed overseeing of the recording, we finally had our tracks with the best quality we've heard yet. The album is now finished and I can't tell you how much relief and excitement I have in me.
This video shows a little bit of is what to come in THE BIRTH OF AN EMPIRE's debut EP coming this summer. Hope you enjoy!
