Star Wars Themed Metal Band Announce Album, Release Video

(Metal Hammer) Star Wars-themed metal band Galactic Empire have announced that they will be releasing their self-titled album on February 3 through Rise Records. The band have also released a music video for their version of The Imperial March.

Galactic Empire launched their cover of the Star Wars theme last year - which helped them successfully crowdfund $61,000 for their debut album and tours.

The group describe themselves as, "a heavy metal band comprised of the most sinister villains in the universe." They add: "Thanks to key members in the Senate and our allies at Rise Records and Velocity Records the Galaxy will kneel before us on February 3 when we unleash the full power of this album.

"The puny humans of your small forest planet Earth have also indicated a desire to see the mighty Galactic Empire perform our music in a live scenario. We would be most pleased to fulfill this request." Watch the video here.
