Combining crushing riffs, driving grooves, the intensity of thrash and commanding gravel-edged vocals, IMPERIUM deliver a sound that is both uncompromisingly heavy and distinctly modern. Based in London UK, the band have refined a signature style that pays homage to the greats of thrash while carving their own path forward. With their first EP and defined sound taking them to Bloodstock festival after winning London’s Metal 2 the Masses in 2022, IMPERIUM are ambitious and relentless, and fast emerging as one of the most exciting names in today's heavy/thrash metal scene.

 

Endorsed by Gibson/Kramer, IMPERIUM proudly embody the spirit of heavy music with instruments that match their intensity. In August 2025, IMPERIUM signed with Heavy Metal Records, a major step in their journey and a testament to their growing impact on the global metal scene. ​The band's highly anticipated debut album is set for release June 2026, promising a powerful showcase of their sound and vision.

Live gig review: Bloodstock Open Air (Aug 22)

"Heavy, riffs for days, chock full of groove and causing a bit of a merch rush at the end, London’s Metal to the Masses winners were on another level. Surpassing bands on bigger stages in higher slots, these guys blew us away. Not just us either, the chatter about Imperium still hours after their set was everywhere we looked. They made a ton of new fans, Including us. They were amazing."

REVIEWS

"Imperium have produced an incredibly solid release, with four tracks that just get under the skin from every angle. With more music to come, the Imperium star is rightly in the ascendency. If you are at Bloodstock, get across and see these guys. Their live show works on a level that recorded music can rarely match. These songs live are phenomenal."

"A head-banging heavyweight metal release that combines elements of thrash and groove to create a frantic and infectious brand of heaviness.

 

It’s a blistering start to get things going. Here Comes the Night showcasing killer riffs, heavy groove, and a ton of energy. This track is going to slay in the pit."
