Shade Empire

Unspeakably brutal guitar patterns, multi-layered and yet beautiful synth walls, ingenious arrangements combined with electronics, devastating drum parts, compl ex bass assaults and the unique vocals coming straight from the deep pits of Hell!

Formed in Kuopio, Finland in 1999, Shade Empire has developed its own genre. After three demos they inked a deal with Italian label Avantgarde Records. Soon after that Shade Empire was ready to record the first full length album titled as ‘ Sinthetic ‘ (2004). ‘ Sinthetic ‘ got praising reviews from all over the world and also the fan base grew enormously worldwide!

In January 2006, Shade Empire entered the famous Studio Perkele to record the follow up to ‘ Sinthetic ‘. In May 2006, Shade Empire unleashed the next album, ‘ Intoxicate O.S ‘. ‘ Intoxicate O.S ‘ was a huge success. In its opening week it achieved position 25 in the Official Finnish Charts!

The summer of 2006 was quite a hectic time for the band as they played several gigs and festival-shows in Finland and that continued until autumn due to fact that Shade Empire was chosen to headline Popkomm’s Metal Evening held in Berlin, October of 06. In spring 2007,  Shade Empire started to write new material and did only a few, select shows during that time (i.e Tuska Metal Festival). In October of 07, the band entered Studio 33 to record their third album. ‘ Zero Nexus ‘ was a concept album, taking the band to new dimensions! The album was released in Spring 2008 and it raged to #15 at the official Finnish charts! After the release, the band toured in Finland and did successful shows at Tuska Open Air 2008 and the main stage of Nummirock.

2008 concluded with a European tour featuring Unleashed , Krisiun and One Man Army And The Undead Quartet . The tour was a success and the fans over Europe were left aching for more! Their fourth album,  Omega Arcane ,  was released through Candlelight Records in 2014. The album consists of 11 songs and totals over 74 minutes in length! ‘ Omega Arcane ‘ is massive, a heavily orchestrated concept album and took the band’s sound to a whole new level. ‘ Omega Arcane ‘ hit the official Finnish charts to position #13. After the album release, the band had numerous gigs in Finland and a European tour with Borknagar , and more.

On April 11, 2017 the band announced that their long-time vocalist  Juha Harju  has been dismissed from the band,to be replaced by Henry Hämäläinen . The upcoming album will still feature Juha on vocals.
