Empathy — the new EP

Edward In Venice

Making the record

Six tracks of varying motion, shade and shape — distinctly Edward In Venice.

Edward In Venice welcomed new guitarist Ivan Maioli, who brought his own accent into the chaotic melodies the band is known for. A chilled and conscious approach to writing enabled a well-designed release.

Guitars recorded by the band, drums by Riccardo Pasini at Studio73 in Ravenna, vocals by Brendan Paolini. Neil Kennedy at Ranch Studios produced, mixed and mastered the record.

High Tide

The first single High Tide bridges listeners from their last release Howler to Empathy — a catchy mid-tempo track and one of the band's slower songs to date.

"High Tide came out in an easier way, probably the fastest song ever wrote," says Filo.
