According to a press release, SHADE EMPIRE has created a sound which cannot be easily categorized. Their music contains industrial and symphonic elements while still staying true to its death/black metal roots.
SHADE EMPIRE's follow-up to 2006's "Intoxicate O.S." (which landed on the Finnish chart at position No. 25) will contain nine songs and two videos will be produced from it. The video production will be handled in part outside Finland and will be overseen by director Ari Reinikainen.
SHADE EMPIRE's "Slitwrist Ecstasy" single — taken from the "Intoxicate O.S." CD — entered the Finnish chart at No. 3.
