Collapse Under The Empire is an instrumental post-rock band from Hamburg (Germany), which was founded in 2008. The duo, consisting of Chris Burda and Martin Grimm have released 9 studio albums and a number of EPs and singles.
Collapse Under The Empire style goes way beyond the usual Post Rock instrumental band. Drawing influences from Trip Hop, Shoegazing, Synthpop and Progressive Rock they are really about pushing the boundaries of Post Rock by creating interpretive soundscapes that inspire listeners and fans to construct a personal narrative. They use aspects of film music, instrumental rock, dark and electronic rock to produce tracks that tell a story and tie into an overall larger concept.
The band also raises money for environmental organizations with their Charity Singles. In 2011 "The Silent Death" was published in aid of Sharkproject, in 2014 "Lost" was published in aid of Save the Rain-forest and in 2020 the charity single "A New Beginning", the band donates all proceeds to the Red Cross, which is fighting the worldwide Corona crisis.
The new album "Recurring" will be official released on Sept. 29th 2023. Thematically it is about the perpetual cycle of life, that everything on our planet is constantly recurring. You can order the new album on their website at: https://www.collapseundertheempire.com
For vinyl-lovers the band will release WORKS. It has 11 vinyls with their complete discography. Their largest LP box set ever! Also available on their website!
