“Really love Black Orchid Empire. Beautiful melodies coupled with tear-your-face-off riffs. Bright fresh new stars” (Skin – Skunk Anansie)
Black Orchid Empire create dense, powerful rock music that combines fearless complexity, aggressive heaviness and beautiful, hook-laden melody.
With a gargantuan sound and energetic live performance, the three-piece hailing from London have been unleashing their ferociously tight show across Europe, including supports with HED p.e., INME and Black Map as well as slots at Download Festival, Standon Calling Festival, Planet Rockstock Festival, Camden Rocks Festival and Taubertal Festival.
Their debut album Archetype garnered widespread media attention, with single God Is Awake being selected as Kerrang! Radio’s track of the week.
A formidable live act, they have toured extensively across the UK and Europe, supporting Skunk Anansie, HED P.E., INME, Cellar Darling and Black Map, alongside appearances at Download, Planet Rockstock, Tech Fest, Teddy Rocks, Standon Calling and Mangata Festival.
After releasing albums via Long Branch Records and Season Of Mist, the band recently signed with Year Of The Rat Records, earning support from BBC Radio 1, Spotify, Apple Music, Knotfest, PROG and Kerrang!.
