Episode #79 - Empires Fall - Part 3

In part 3 of our ongoing investigation into "Empires Fall," we examine how Night Demon came to work with producer Matt Hyde on this track, including Armand's long history with him. The band describes their experience in working with an outside producer and reflects on whether Night Demon really needs an outside ear in the studio. The guys also explain how and why they tapped Josh Newell for the final mix of the song.  You will also hear in detail from the three guests who contributed gang vocals, including their relationship with Night Demon, how they came to be involved in "Empires Fall," and their experiences in the studio.  Night Demon talk about how honored they were to have friends and musicians who influenced them contribute to this track, and how the guest vocalists lent punk credibility to the song. Become a subscriber today at nightdemon.net/subscriber.
