Empress Add Extra Tour Dates & Announce New Single

• 31st Oct 2012

Reading-based prog rockers Empress announce new single ‘Perplexed Again’ to be released on 26th November. Taken from their yet-to-be-titled debut album (out Spring 2013), ‘Perplexed Again’ is a live fan favourite, with ferocious riffs, colossal screams and thrashy beats.

Front man Ollie Loring says of the track – “When we wrote the song it was at a time when a lot of my friends were moving away and onto the next stage in their lives, and as happy as I was for them, it made me feel like I was stuck in a rut and not moving anywhere with mine.”

Following the band’s sold out shows supporting Baroness, and packing out the Camden Barfly for their first ever headline show, the band have also announced a string of shows throughout the UK in November. Full dates below:
