Break free from the ordinary and dive into the extraordinary with Half Me’s new EP Opium. This release redefines metalcore by blending innovation with tradition. The EP channels raw frustration with a disposable society, combining bone-crushing heaviness with anguished, soul-piercing vocals. Opium showcases the band's relentless drive to push genre boundaries and marks a bold new chapter in their musical evolution.

Formed in Hamburg in 2018, Half Me - guitarists Chris and Julius, vocalist Chris, drummer Max and bassist Tobias - are one of the latest additions to the Arising Empire roster. Musically, Half Me blend a modern rendition of metal and hardcore with highlights of 90s nu-metal. Pounding riffs and breakdowns are accompanied by brutal, yet sometimes elegant, vocals that all balance together to formulate the band’s own distinctive sound. 

In just a few years, Half Me have made an impact in the music scene by self-producing their music and videos, displaying their intensive and energetic demeanour. Debuting with four singles initially, it was their their single 'Exitwound' (featuring Jack Bergin of Void of Vision) that gave the group a breakthrough and landed the band in the spotlight of Knotfest’s Countdown to Oblivion.

Riding the high of their recent success of their debut album SOMA, Half Me's new EP Opium is very much worth the wait.
