Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) - Keep What You Have Built Up Here

They're probably my favorite post-90's emo-esque band. Admittedly, their name is a bit ridiculous, it began as a solo project that wasn't expected to turn into a full band. Overall, I really enjoy the amount of emotion in the vocals and guitars for this song, and for the album as a whole really. It quickly jumps from gentle vocals and soft guitar melodies into screams and heavy guitar creating a dichotomy akin to short intense thunderstorms on a calm summer's day.
