Empty Throne
Prepare for darkness incarnate—Empty Throne is about to descend with a powerful new video for “Unholy,” the title track of their upcoming debut full-length album, set for release on November 27, 2024, via Downfall Records. This single serves as a brutal prelude, a glimpse into the kind of sonic devastation only a band forged in extreme metal’s fires can deliver.
Formed in 2020, Empty Throne stands as a blackened thrash/death metal juggernaut, channeling some of the genre’s most unyielding sounds and energies. With a lineup featuring metal heavyweights Mike Pardi (guitar, Draconis, ex-Possessed), Gabe Seeber (drums, The Kennedy Veil, Abbath), and Jason Ellsworth (bass, Angerot), all led by CR Petit’s blistering vocal attack, the band is no stranger to crafting intensity. The concept and ferocity that drives Empty Throne can be traced back to Petit, whose vision has shaped the band’s dark thematic landscapes and crushing soundscapes.
As an outfit with roots touching legendary acts like Cannibal Corpse and Suffocation, Empty Throne draws on both legacy and innovation. Their previous lineup shifts included Mike Smith (ex-Suffocation) and Jack Owen (Cannibal Corpse, Deicide), adding layers of experience that contribute to their razor-sharp sound. With the release of Unholy, the band has solidified their approach—a relentless mix of blackened thrash ferocity and death metal weight.
The video for Unholy plunges into this raw vision, an eruption of shadow and fury that will leave fans hungry for the album drop which you can preorder here. Watch “Unholy” below and prepare for the dark arrival of Unholy on November 27.
