   About Mia Kat Empire
The Mia Kat Empire is a local independent art and music collective from Houston. TX. We have no parent companies. We are about those artists who move us and, through whatever medium they choose, create art sonically or visually on their own terms. We try as hard as we can to step aside and allow the artists true creative control of their work and then work tirelessly to gain recognition of it outside of this small group of friends and colleagues. It is our most sincere hope to change the world we live in for the better through the art we support. Please listen, look, and enjoy!

FRAGMENT MUSIC (15 años trabajando)





Aug 19 2008 8:29 PM

Hello friends of Mia Kat Empire, Thanks for adding FRAGMENT MUSIC to your friends list, it is very important you can know all we are doing in order to support the music, we are currently presenting two new edited albums, the one of BORN TO HATE, a hardcore band from Barcelone formed only by girls, a great demonstration of what they are capable to do, and that of TRUTH THROUGH FIGHT, second album of this old school hardcore band from Xerez - Cadiz, two albums we want to recommend you to know, listen to some of their songs in our myspace and we also wanted getting these abums to be easy, so, for 15 Euros you can get these two albums and for free our compilation FRAGMENT RECORDS 2008, we hope you fancy knowing these groups

Regards.
Juanji
