GALACTIC EMPIRE Release New Song and Announce Upcoming Album

The galaxy’s premiere Star Wars themed John Williams cover band Galactic Empire just announced their upcoming album Cinemetal will be out October 24th via Pure Noise Records. The album will feature metal versions of popular songs from Harry Potter, Back To The Future, Lord Of The Rings, Batman, Avengers, and more.

The band had this to say on the album announcement:
“Puny citizens of Earth, we have once again returned to sonically annihilate all in our presence with the fourth full-length studio album by the mighty Galactic Empire, CINEMETAL,” Lord Sihk shares. “After three albums of tribute to the mighty Sith Lord John Williams, we realized we had run out of Star Wars music and felt like a change was in order. There are many other iconic themes from Earth’s film history that we have yet to explore, and it felt prudent to pay homage to some of the most notable ones. Behold the ultimate power of the Dark Side with CINEMETAL and together we can RULE the galaxy!"
