Years active: 2000-present
Formed in fall of 2000, Scarlet Empyrean began as a melodic metal band paired with vocals primarily inspired by black metal. Their music is an intricately woven combination of the members' vastly varied influences, and over time evolved into a more progressive instrumental post-metal sound while dropping the vocals entirely.
The band went on hiatus in 2008 and reformed in 2016 to begin work on recording their upcoming album "Tinged By Fire".
