Tutti abbiamo pensato di mettere su un altro gruppo e lasciare i Cradle da parte per ritrovare un po&#8217; di interesse. L&#8217;idea era quella di prendersi un paio d&#8217;anni di pausa per fare qualcosa di diverso e una volta deciso di essere pronti a ricominciare con i Cradle avremmo scritto un grande album e saremmo partiti per un tour spettacolare ma come vedi non \u00e8 accaduto niente di tutto questo. Sono sopraggiunti altri fattori con i quali non mi trovavo in accordo e lla rottura \u00e8 stata inevitabile. Per questo ho deciso di rendere i White EMpress la mia band full time e circondarmi di musicisti con i quali condividere le stesse idee e la passione che ho sempre avuto per il metal, avevo davvero bisogno di fratelli e sorelle che la pensassero come me.<\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span mce_name=\"strong\" mce_style=\"font-weight: bold;\" style=\"font-weight: bold;\" class=\"Apple-style-span\" mce_fixed=\"1\">&#8211; Gi\u00e0 da un primo ascolto del singolo &#8220;Darkness Encroaching&#8221;, si capisce che si tratta di qualcosa di molto diverso da ci\u00f2 che hai fatto fino a questo momento.

Sono davvero annoiato dalla scena cos\u00ec com&#8217;\u00e8 ora e avevo voglia di creare qualcosa per scuotere e risvegliare la gente. WE \u00e8 il mio modo per sfuggire alla gabbia della scena musicale odierna, \u00e8 tutto cos\u00ec annacquato e ridicolo e non c&#8217;\u00e8 niente che ti spinge ad ascoltare ancora musica&#8230; fino ad ora. Ho rinnovato la mia ispirazione musicale e puoi sentirlo nei WE, lo trovo fantastico, una boccata d&#8217;aria fresca.<\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span mce_name=\"strong\" mce_style=\"font-weight: bold;\" style=\"font-weight: bold;\" class=\"Apple-style-span\" mce_fixed=\"1\">&#8211; C&#8217;\u00e8 una gran bella attitudine in questo progetto, oserei dire con un tocco sporco di thrash, c&#8217;\u00e8 il desiderio di ripartire da un suono pi\u00f9 grezzo, quasi underground? <\/span><\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\">S\u00ec assolutamente c&#8217;\u00e8 un tocco di thrash metal qui, cos\u00ec come molti altri generi di musica. I White Empress costituiscono l&#8217;unione dei migliori stili di metal che sono stati suonati negli anni, motivo per cui abbiamo trovato il nostro sound e abbiamo composto materiale originale. Volevo esattamente il suono underground, adoro come ti arriva, \u00e8 cos\u00ec dark e groove, \u00e8 meraviglioso. White Empress per me \u00e8 la sensazione che avevo da ragazzino quando ascoltavo per la prima volta metal, era cos\u00ec bello e avevo perso il piacere di essere toccato dalla musica. Volevo sentirmi rizzare i capelli sulla nuca e un brivido lungo la spina dorsale ad ascoltare ancora del metal. Non c&#8217;era niente nel panorama musicale che mi facesse sentire cos\u00ec e quindi ho deciso di farlo io e iniziare con i White Empress. Ecco, ripartono da qui le sensazioni e le vibrazioni dell&#8217;underground, \u00e8 elettrizzante ed \u00e8 ci\u00f2 che il metal dovrebbe essere, sporco, melmoso e dritto in faccia senza nessuna produzione &#8220;tirata a lucido&#8221; come si sente sempre oggi.<\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span mce_name=\"strong\" mce_style=\"font-weight: bold;\" style=\"font-weight: bold;\" class=\"Apple-style-span\" mce_fixed=\"1\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\">&#8211; Sono state annunciate le prime date live, cosa dobbiamo aspettarci dall&#8217;ambizioso progetto White Empress dal vivo?<\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><\/span><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br \/>Onestamente ci aspettiamo di andare davvero fuori di testa sul palco, \u00e8 la ragione stessa per cui il progetto White Empress \u00e8 stato creato, per suonare dal vivo.

Recuperare fondi \u00e8 un modo per generare un budget di cui spesso una label non dispone e per offrire al tuo pubblico delle rarit\u00e0 che altrimenti sarebbero introvabili. Abbiamo scelto Pledge Music perch\u00e8 sono il sito pi\u00f9 affidabile di ricerca fondi che si focalizza sulla musica e sulla produzione degli album. Sara e Jill ci hanno entrambi proposto questa idea. Volevano essere coinvolti e hanno messo il loro talento artistico al nostro servizio per supportare ci\u00f2 che stavamo tentando di realizzare.

It all started about 3 years ago while i was still in Cradle. We all were told to go do another band and put Cradle on hold so it could get some interest back again. The idea was to take a couple of years out and do something different and once we were ready to start Cradle again we would write a ground breaking album and tour with spectacular stage shows but as you can see that never happened. Other factors came into play which i didn&#8217;t agree with which stopped the much needed break. Because of this i decided to make White Empress my full time pro band and get musicians in who shared the same ideas and passion i had for metal, i needed a band of brothers and sisters who thought the same as I.<\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><b>&#8211; From the very first listen to the single &#8220;Darkness Encroaching&#8221;, it&#8217;s easy to understand that it&#8217;s something really different from everything you&#8217;ve done long for many years.

I&#8217;m bored with the scene right now and wanted to create something that will shake it up and wake it up. WE is my escape from the normal everyday crap you get in the music scene now, its got so watered down its laughable and nothing makes you feel like when you first listened to music anymore\u2026. until now. I have renewed musical inspiration and drive now and you can hear this in WE, its amazing and a breath of fresh air.&#8221;<\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><b>&#8211; It sounds like there&#8217;s a great attitude with this project, I dare to say there&#8217;s a touch of thrash metal, as a desire to start from a rougher sound, almost underground? <\/b><\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\">Yes there is a touch of thrash metal in there as well as many other styles of music. White Empress consists of all the great music genres in metal from thoughout the years, because of this we have created our own sound and original material. I wanted the sound to be underground, i love the way it feels, its so dark and the groove is awesome. White Empress for me is the feeling i use to have when i was a kid listening to metal back then, it was awesome and i missed the feeling of being moved by music. I wanted the hairs on my neck to stand up and get shivers up my spine when hearing metal again. Nothing in the scene was doing this for me so i decided to do it myself and start White Empress. So, hence the underground feeling and vibe, its awesome and how metal should be, dirty, sludgy and in your face with no &#8220;squeak clean&#8221; production like the scene now.<\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><b>&#8211; &nbsp;First tour dates announced, what do we have to expect on stage from the ambitious White Empress?<\/b><\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\">Honestly we are expecting it to go nuts live, this is the reason why White Empress was started, to play live. We want fans to lose themselves in our music and performance, just go with it, pits, moshing, stage diving its all up to you, react how you all wish. This time around we have kept it underground, cool as hell back drop and side fills, nothing more, simplicity is the key here. I have ideas for future shows that will include the audience etc, i want them to feel a part of the White Empress gigs.<br \/><\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><b>&#8211; How did you get the idea for the Pledge music campaign, involving artists like Sara DiClemente and Jill Colbert?<\/b><\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br \/>The PledgeMusic campaign stemmed from the changes in the current music industry and the evolution of how albums are funded in 2014. Crowd funding is a way to generate budgets that are not owed to a label and to offer the audience some very special items that otherwise would be unavailable. We chose to go with PledgeMusic as a company because they&#8217;re the most professional crowd funding company that focuses on music specifically and album campaigns. Sara and Jill both presented the idea to us actually. They wanted to be involved and offered to lend their artistic talent to us to support what we were trying to accomplish. Both artists are very talented artists and brought the Empress to life with their interpretations of her. The whole concept of White Empress is expressed through many mediums of art, so we felt this was a perfect way to enlighten the listeners with another peak into the avatar herself.<\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><b>&#8211; Do you think this the future of music, collaborations with fans, an intimate closeness to your audience?<\/b><\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\">I&#8217;ve always done this as far as i can remember. To me its very important to make sure fans feel part of what we do, more bands should be doing this. I hate the divide the industry has made between fans and bands. In the end of the day we are all the same, no matter what we do or how big people think you are. We all bleed the same and no one is any more important than the rest.<\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><b>&#8211; Why did you choose Kit Woolven and Peaceville Records as partners for &#8220;Rise of the Empress&#8221;?<\/b><\/span><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><br style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\" mce_style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;\">I&#8217;ve known Kit for a very long time, he&#8217;s a good friend of mine and an awesome producer. Kit heard WE and felt it was original and different enough to make waves in the scene so he asked to be a part of it and wanted to mix and master the album. Its the same for Peaceville, I&#8217;ve known them for a very long time too and also released albums through them in the past. I like the bands they have on there and there attitude to WE is amazing, they love it and after hearing the EP we sent them and they pretty much straightaway wanted to sign it.
