Forging their way through the post-punk underworld for a decade, after dozens of exhausting gigsand two blistering EPs, the Brussels-based trio is (finally) releasing their debut album, “Eau Rouge”, on February 21, 2025, through Icy Cold Records (Paris, FR) and Rockerill Records (Charleroi, BE).

Ready to take on the gentrification of post-punk, EMPEREUR unleashes their cold, binary wave like a sawed-off shotgun, spitting venom in the form of sharp, manifesto-like outbursts finished in acid. On a mission to add Chaos to Chaos, the drums pound in unison with a razor-sharp bassline against a wall of feedback. Visceral, cutting, the alarm bell rings and all hell breaks loose. Three minutes per track is already too much time to scream into the void.

EMPEREUR are Laurent Bencharif (bass), Jérôme Elleboudt (drums), Paul Paccaud (vocals, guitar).
