Galactic Empire are ready to conquer more universes with their new single “Superman”

The release date of Galactic Empire‘s new album, “Cinemetal,” through Pure Noise Records has been announced as October 24. The masked band, which is often focused on music from the “Star Wars” franchise, is expanding out from a galaxy far, far away with this new entry. Instead, they are performing songs from the scores of movies from the “Batman,” “Harry Potter,” “Back to the Future,” and “Lord of the Rings” franchises, among others. The first track, which undoubtedly coincides with the upcoming July 11th launch of the most recent installment of the film franchise, is the group’s interpretation of John Williams‘ theme for the 1978 film adaption of “Superman.”

Puny citizens of Earth, we have once again returned to sonically annihilate all in our presence with the fourth full-length studio album by the mighty Galactic Empire, CINEMETAL. After three albums of tribute to the mighty Sith Lord John Williams, we realized we had run out of Star Wars music and felt like a change was in order. There are many other iconic themes from Earth’s film history that we have yet to explore, and it felt prudent to pay homage to some of the most notable ones. Behold the ultimate power of the Dark Side with CINEMETAL and together we can RULE the galaxy! Lord Sihk

For years, we have been wanting to explore more musical material outside of the Star Wars universe. There are so many great film scores out there that stand the test of time. We decided to dig into a small handful of some of what we think are the most memorable and iconic themes from major blockbuster motion pictures from the last 50 years. We worked tirelessly on this album and without a doubt it is the most densely layered, complex arrangement that we have ever tackled. There were a lot of challenges to overcome because of this, but the result is immensely satisfying and we couldn’t be more proud of it.
