Empty

The Australian band Empty began in 2005 as a studio project by Sydney based musicians Aaron Potter and Daniel Brunet. The debut EP in 2006 carved an emotive and complex trail into the Electro-Industrial genre by combining pulsing electronics overlaid with vast, sweeping soundscapes.

2008 brought the release of a remix EP and single which highlighted elements of Glitch and marked the beginning of a new era for the band. The long awaited debut album "Surfacing" in 2010 integrates organic emotion with raw elements of desperation and melodic electronics.

Empty: Surfacing now available

Surfacing is the long awaited debut album from Empty which represents a whole new realm of sound by integrating organic emotion with raw elements of desperation and melodic electronics.

Featuring fourteen immersive tracks moulded from a variety of genres including Electro-Industrial, Drum & Bass and Glitch, Surfacing offers the listener a unique auditory experience with a wide range of vocal styles and varying structural paces.

The sound of Empty is comparable to that of Electro-Industrial bands such as Front Line Assembly, Dismantled, Mind.In.A.Box, Imperative Reaction or Skinny Puppy and draws inspiration from bands outside of the genre such as Pendulum, Tweaker and Depeche Mode.
