VI.BE

An explosive mix of garage energy, raging guitar riffs and infectious melodies, Belgium’s Empty Head emerged in 2020 seemingly fully formed and bristling with a wiry tension. Raw yet subtle. Visceral and unpredictable. Empty Head’s brand of alternative rock is a true call to let go.

The band grew out of the endeavors of five childhood punk-rock loving friends. Working out of a small rehearsal room in the city center of their hometown, they put all their soul into massive all-night jam sessions and composed their first batch of songs, which they self-recorded in the process following an entirely DIY approach. Upon the release of their self-titled debut EP in 2021 and follow-up 2nd EP in 2023, the young quintet aroused the interest of the Belgian, French and Dutch media, and took advantage of the end of the pandemic to launch a series of around 40 live shows (including 'Supersonic' in Paris) and quickly established themselves on the local scene.

Empty Head are heading back to the studio at the end of 2024 to record their first full-length album. This time, they are accompanied by Damien Vanderhasselt (Millionaire, SONS, ILA,...) who works as producer and mixer for the album.

"Aan alle nummers is te merken dat Empty Head streeft naar perfectie. Het is dan ook een EP geworden waar niks op aan te merken is, behalve dat ze pure klasse is! Als deze band het subliem geluid dat ze hier op deze ep brengen ook live kunnen neerzetten, dan staan alle deuren open voor Empty Head" Luminous Dash (BE)
