DARK EMPIRE Seeks New Drummer

September 9, 2008

New Jersey-based progressive thrash metal band DARK EMPIRE is seeking a new drummer.

Commented bandleader Matt Moliti: "Our two shows with SUSPYRE and ODIN'S COURT were enjoyable. It was great to see our fans come down to the shows and rock out with us! As these were the first shows with our new lineup, we realized that Omar Davila was not quite right for DARK EMPIRE. For both musical and personal reasons, we have decided to part ways with him. DARK EMPIRE wishes Omar the best in his future endeavors, and applaud him for stepping up to the plate and learning our material in such a short amount of time.

"DARK EMPIRE is seeking a new drummer. We're looking a drummer able to meet the following criteria:

1. Be comfortable and well versed in technical drumming styles (extreme metal and progressive genres).
2. Someone who has pro experience and will be able to dedicate themselves long term with the band, for both future live shows and studio sessions.
3. Be in or around the Northern New Jersey/NYC area or be willing to commute or relocate.

"DARK EMPIRE have some tentative shows planned for the fall and winter, so we're hoping to find our drummer relatively soon. If you'd like to audition, please send a bio, picture, and links to sound clips (or video if you have it) to [email protected]. PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT OUR MYSPACE ABOUT THE AUDITION. If we like what we hear/see we will contact you."

DARK EMPIRE's second album, "Humanity Dethroned", was mastered by Mika Jussila at Finnvox Studios (CHILDREN OF BODOM, NIGHTWISH).
