If there were ever a genre that probably didn't merit revival, that late '90s, Midwestern brand of emo as characterised by the likes of Mineral, Sunny Day Real Estate and the rest would probably be a distinct frontrunner. Don't get me wrong. I'm a sensitive young man with a side parting, but even as an emo enthusiast, it's very easy to see why that particular area of music is derided so vehemently and often. All that said, it seems that with When You Are Done Living On Borrowed Time , lifted from the ridiculously-titled forthcoming EP [...]

Oh time you are such a fickle bitch. The way your never ending pull distorts what once was and colors what now is never fails to fuck with how we all perceive things. Did I ever mention that way WAY back when my email address was something like emokid2121@hotmail.com? I'm not embarrassed to admit it but man did I get grief for that from all my "punk" friends (you know who you are). Anyhow, if you've read this blog for long, you no doubt know my affinity for what many would call the "classic" mid-90's emo sound [...]

Influenced by late 90s emo, prior to its mass popularization, Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) brings back the genre's best traits. Lacking the whiny "pity me, I'm depressed" elements of what would soon follow, this band reaches back to the greats like Appleseed Cast in their early days and, in particular, Mineral. This is all readily available information; true to the genre, they wear their influences on their sleeves. Like these influences, the instrumentation is a fairly low-key rendition of highly melodic post-shoegaze mixed with flat, dissonant vocals belted out through tired emotive lungs. [...]

Review: Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) - Year Of The Rabbit
Michigan's Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) is back with a new two song 7" called Year Of The Rabbit that is (as their previous EP was) full of that mid 90's emo that seems to be coming back into vogue. EEIWALE (what an acronym) is again wonderfully unpolished and imperfect but brutally honest. That honesty and the accompanying flaws are on display here for all the world to hear. Sure it might be "whiny plinky-plink emo" but so can everything that Mineral and American Football released be classified. [...]

Review: Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) - When The Sea Became A Giant
The emo re-revolution is most certainly upon us now. It's almost as if this new breed of emo bands like Street Smart Cyclist, Algernon Cadwallader, Rapid Cities, Bridge and Tunnel, Know Think, Jacob and I, and others have just fallen out of the sky and onto my stereo. Another band that fits snugly into this classification is the Fenton, Michigan based Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) . Yes, that is the band's name. Their debut EP, When The Sea Became A Giant , is and imperfect but impassioned collection of what my [...]
