After instantly selling out next week’s intimate shows without even releasing a single song, today Empire State Bastard have officially revealed what they’re all about with intense debut single Harvest.
The crushing new side-project from Biffy Clyro’s Simon Neil and Mike Vennart features the mighty Dave Lombardo on drums, and is an incredibly exciting taste of what else is to come from the band. “Empires fall, States rise, Bastards sing…” they tease. “It’s Harvest time motherfuckers!”
