   About Course of Empire
The Dallas, TX. band Course of Empire -- guitarist Mike Graff, vocalist Vaughn Stevenson, drummers Chad Lovell and Michael Jerome, and bassist Paul Semrad -- offers heavy metal with a thoughtful, politically aware message. The group recorded a pair of albums for the Zoo Entertainment label (their self-titled debut and the sophomore Initiation), but was left without a label when Zoo went under. C.O.E. was able to spread their message-filled music by opening for the likes of Prong and Sister Machine Gun. The group wisely decided to build their own studio with the money put aside for their third Zoo album (which would have been completely lost in the shuffle), and waited it out until the right record company presented itself. TVT Records eventually signed the band and released their best and most consistent album, Telepathic Last Words, in late 1997 (many fans outside the Dallas area thought the group had broken up, due to their lengthy absence). Like its predecessor, Telepathic Last Words dealt with conspiracy theories and America's growing obsession with secret plots and treachery. And since it was produced by Jon Fryer (Nine Inch Nails, Gravity Kills), a slight techno edge was added to C.O.E.'s trademark metal. ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide. sorry this myspace isn't acually run by course of empire just by one of there many fans.

If Chad ever checks this page, hey Chad! It is Lyric, from long ago-Deep Ellum, then the Whisky, L.A.-I'm still working on the biography of Deep Ellum musicians/scene , as it has to be attended to in between my actual journalistic career! You are most def in it, I have a great publisher to support the effort, etc.


I'm sending an email your way about our UK Featured Artists Studio here, I know that you would not only appreciate it, you would marvel at the musicians we've featured and worked with-Much respect!!

I've met Micheal Jerome and Paul Semrad back in 98 when they opened for Rob Halford's band TWO. They rocked the house, I also met Vauhn only for a few seconds. They were layed back and very friendly. I asked Paul why they didn't add Breed into their set list. Paul said they were too old. Damn it was a hell of a show. The real crowd pleasers were Hiss and Freaks.

This band was truely over looked! I think some of us 'true' fans are lucky too have pondered across them. Been a fan since 94, still a fan today and will always be.
