On the epic new release, Lord Sihk shares:
“Behold! The mighty Galactic Empire has infiltrated the remote system of Mordor to pay tribute to The Lord of the Rings. This composition is a medley of the iconic themes from the franchise. The powerful Sith Lord Howard Shore has created many defining musical moments throughout the epic film series and The Empire has worked tirelessly to do them justice. We hope to evoke the Dark Lord Sauron with this metallic journey into the heart of Mount Doom.
“Lord of the Rings” will be featured on the band’s upcoming album Cinemetal, alongside previous releases including “Avengers”, “Pirates of the Caribbean”, and “Superman”. With each new release they continue to put their signature metal twist on songs from popular film franchises including Harry Potter, Back To The Future, Batman, and more.
