Despite facing several lineup changes, Empathize has solidified its formation with six dedicated members.

Empathize made a notable entrance into the music scene with their debut single, “Deluded,” which quickly gained traction and marked a promising beginning for the band. Over the past year, they have showcased their passion and talent through three local shows, delivering powerful metallic hardcore sounds that resonate with audiences.

Driven by youthful enthusiasm, Empathize aims to do more than just entertain. The band strongly condemns societal evils and injustices, inspiring a spirit of fighting for justice. However, their message goes beyond hatred; they seek to convey a more positive message of empathy and constant progress towards a brighter future.

As Empathize continues to evolve, they plan to release more music that reflects their commitment to addressing social issues and promoting empathy. Fans can look forward to upcoming performances and new releases that showcase the band’s growth and dedication to their mission.
