this is music we listen to, but dont necessarily sound like (in no order of preference)
Billy Talent, RATM, gallows, The Mars Volta, Foo Fighters, biffy clyro, nine inch nails, reuben, jet plane landing, qotsa, death from above 1979, weezer, pj harvey, nina simone, muse, kate bush, daft punk, aphex twin, metallica, frank sinatra, pink floyd, queen, thin lizzy, 13 senses, fightstar, at the drive in, incubus, beethoven, led zeppelin, sparta, the subways, ben e king, al greene, marvin gaye, black sabbath, portishead, massive attack, oasis, justice vs simian, elvis, robots in disguise, and loads more
"The rest of the set continued at the high standard of breathy vocals, anthems mixed with ballads, and the band (quite frankly) playing the shit out of their instruments with relentless and intoxicating skill, leaving the crowd breathless by the end, but with a hunger to experience the addictive pleasure all over again. The guy next to me summed it up in one word - wow!"
"Make it your quest to experience the calibre of Million Empire!"
*Meriel Flavell - Ryans Gig Guide*
"Their music is difficult to classify but impossible to ignore. Think of a central position between Trent Reznor's lyrical introversy, Tool's wierd shit, Placebo's melodic sensibilities and Muse's apocalyptic nightmare."
*Matt486*
"Their set is a fabulous mixture of schizophrenic dynamics, from quiet sobriety to modern infused rock. They are the illegitimate love-child of Muse and At The drive-in"
*Andy Crawford - The Amp*
"Million Empire are like the four leaf clover. You spend all your time searching for it, but never know if what your looking for really exists, but you know that if it does you've hit the jackpot."

hope you're OK??? Stu and Dave can't make it this saturday... Johnny and mark still tryin to sort out work!!
We were wondering if you'd be interested in coming to another of our shows?
We've landed a big gig at The Asylum (www. theasylumvenue. co. uk) in Birmingham on Monday 8th September 2008. We'll be supporting Californian punks, 'Agent Orange' (myspace. com/agentorange), on their UK tour!!!
Tickets are currently £8 but we'll get a batch to sell and could probably do 'em for half price!!
let us know if you, any of your mates etc would be interested and how many tickets you'd like...
thanks for the turn out at the Hare & Hounds... shame about us being all over the place with techno hitches... we played an absolute blinder last night at the Targebigge... this would be a great place for us to gig together... somehow the guys there know you.... things are moving towards a date for us both to play there......
looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday at the Hare & Hounds.... Just a query at this stage coz i haven't posed the question.... One band has pulled out on Wednesday and the promoter is going to run with three bands instead of four..... do you want me to ask if you guys can play???
let me know ASAP
I don't know what the answer will be but it's worth asking if your up for it???
Sorry about the plug!
