Vocalist / Guitarist Paul Visser commented "Playing Download Festival was an absolute dream come true for us. It's been a huge influence our whole lives and really is the spiritual home of heavy music in the UK. Getting the chance to perform there was the highlight of our career so far. Check out the vid that the talented Jay Hillyer shot for us - we had an absolute blast editing it, and it really captures the band live and what it means to us to play. We can't wait to hit the road very soon - see you at a show!"  

BLACK ORCHID EMPIRE have released the video ahead of their UK headline dates throughout September and October in support of their latest release Yugen.

 BLACK ORCHID EMPIRE create dense, powerful rock music that combines fearless complexity, aggressive heaviness and beautiful, hook-laden melody.  

With a gargantuan sound and energetic live performance, the three-piece hailing from London have been unleashing their ferociously tight show across Europe, including a UK tour with HED p.e, several headline runs and much-lauded appearances at Standon Calling, Planet Rockstock, Camden Rocks Festival or German Taubertal Festival amongst others. Their critically-acclaimed debut album Archetype garnered widespread media attention, withsingle God Is Awake being selected as Kerrang! Radio's track of the week. 

Having played alongside heavyweights such as Biffy Clyro, Editors andSkunk Anansie and with a dedicated, growing fanbase, BLACK ORCHID EMPIRE demand your attention.
