In the year of 1997 and under the terrible winds of holocaust was created in the Estado de México a unpure band by four perverse demons under the name of BLACK EMPIRE.
To the end of 1997, the horde recorded a promo reh entitled simply Promo 97. Because the poor sound, this promo was not well distributed, but metalheads that heard this recording were captured by the cruel sound created by these demons.
In 1998, the horde entered to a semi professional studio to record the first official and self financiated demotape entitled A Real Man...A Black Heart. This work was well accepted between the media underground and some hundreds of copies were sold, spreading the name of the horde as a serious band into the ways of Black Metal.
In the 2000 BLACK EMPIRE recorded the best stuff to the date, the MCD The Black Magic Domain. In this release, the odes become more evil and destructive and the demons demonstrated a superior skill playing their instruments. The cassette version was edited under the mexican underground label AMERICAN LINE PRODUCTIONS and the format CD was self released by BLACK EMPIRE. The final result was excellent and the response of the media underground was amazing!!
2004 was a special year for the band, because in november of this year the horde entered to the M.A.T. studios to record their CD debut, that was magistrally captured and masterized by Miguel Ãngeles Tavera (PULVERIZED, SABACHTANY, FOETICIDE, etc.). The final result was simply amazing, finally BLACK EMPIRE found the right sound for their sonic holocaust: powerful, cruel and devastating. No doubt, Into The Jails Of Past is the best work of BLACK EMPIRE to the date.
The inspiration is taken of our misanthopic thoughts, an obsession with war, mystic power that embrace endless obscurity and all internal evil that dwells in our black hearts.
BLACK EMPIRE had played a big number of shows to promove their unpure art, some of them with ROTTING CHRIST, RAVAGER, XIUHTECUHTLI, GOMORY, and others and in 2003 BLACK EMPIRE played their first international show in El Salvador.
BLACK EMPIRE is ready for the edition of their CD debut Into The Jails Of Past, edited in may 2005 through the mexican labels AZERMEDOTH RECORDS and WITCHCRAFT RECORDS.
In 2007 was edited a Split CD with the infernal hordes KRATORNAS, NAKKIGA & XERION under the underground label SATANIC RECORDS.
Now in the 2008 the horde prepare a Split CD with the mexican horde named Black Torment, this infernal attack will be edited under SICK CHAINSAWS PRODUCTIONS from Thailand.
The name of this blasphemy are "BLACK MAJESTIC EMPIRE OF TORMENT"
Zines, labels, bands, radioshows and distributors send three dollars or 30 pesos for a promo pack.
