Empire State Games - Empire State Games
Review by Julie Achterhoff
Empire State Games' self-titled album, Empire State Games, is a refreshing and dynamic collection of songs that showcases the band's versatility and creativity. From the opening track, "Empire State of Mind," which features a catchy chorus and a driving beat, to the closing ballad, "The End of the Line," which showcases the band's softer side, this album is a rollercoaster ride of emotions and sounds.
The band's musicianship is top-notch, with each member contributing their unique talents to create a cohesive and polished sound. The guitar work is particularly impressive, with intricate riffs and solos that add depth and complexity to the songs.
Lyrically, the album is a mix of introspective musings and anthemic calls to action. Songs like "Stand Up and Fight" and "We Are the Ones" are empowering and uplifting, while tracks like "Broken Dreams" and "Lost in the City" delve into more personal themes of heartbreak and disillusionment.
