Biography:
The origin of Eye Empire began in 2007 when Corey Lowery (ex. Stuck Mojo/Stereomud/Dark New Day) and B.C. Kochmit (ex. Switched) started to construct what would eventually, and unknowingly, become the foundation of an empire. The two would get together once or twice per month to write and record as many songs as possible.

After two years of writing and searching for the right vocalist to stamp his mark on this new music, Donald Carpenter (ex. Submersed) joined the group in October of 2009. followed by former Texas Hippie Coalition member Ryan Bennett on drums. The band's debut album: Moment of Impact will be released in the coming months via Bad Puppy Records / Bulldog Productions.

Produced by Corey Lowery and Eye Empire, early pressings of the album have already sold thousands of copies on-line exclusively through mail order. An expanded track listing with three brand new songs make up the national release of Moment Of Impact.

The first single from the album, "I Pray" has already been heard on Sirius/XM's "Octane" for the past few months; while the band has been staging one standing room only show after another. Eye Empire will immediately head back out on the road for dates beginning on September 4th in Madison, WI, and rolling in to a direct support run with Wayne Static’s Pighammer that commences on September 27th in Sacramento

This is their "Moment of Impact” and it’s just the beginning.
