TFE are looking for guitarist and pianist !!

ello, we are reaching out to all able musicians, this is a "call to arms". We need an additional guitarist and a pianist. You should be able to play your instrument and, of course, like our kind of music. Plus, it helps if you are somewhat cool....
If you want to be in a proper Rock'n'Roll band and you think you have what it takes, please go ahead and contact us via "thefallenempires@gmail.com".
Don't be shy at the wrong point in your life. We are looking forward to your letters and promise to read all of them and to get back to you.
Rock on,

We have started. The drums, amps, mixing console and all the cables are scattered around the room, somewhat magically connected to produce a fantastic sound. We were surprised about the quality, it has surpassed our expectations. Calle has outdone himself and almost all the drum tracks are recorded and Nate and me are working feverishly to put down the acoustic guitar and bass...So far everything is going perfectly smooth, the amounts of coffee, pizza and beer consumed are staggering, the music simply better than ever!
You can find the recording pictures in the "pictures" section.

We’re back in the studio...

Yes, we are going at it again. Over the next two weeks or so we will be re-recording our six demo songs. The time has come to "update" the sound. The songs had been recorded last year with a different drummer and guitarist. Now that we've found our way in live shows and rehearsals to a sound that is instantly recognizable we're looking very much forward to the challenge of transferring it to a recording. I can say so much already: more blues(-ish) and less hard-rock, better recording quality and a touch of live performance-energy...
I'll keep you updated with pictures and news from the home-studio, so don't forget to check in again.
