''Empros'' is the fourth studio album by the American rock band Russian Circles. The album was released on October 25, 2011 through Sargent House.〔 This is Russian Circles' first album released solely through Sargent House. For the group's first three albums, Sargent House released limited edition vinyl copies, while CD and digital copies were handled by Suicide Squeeze Records or Flameshovel Records.〔〔 Russian Circles began writing ''Empros'' in January 2011.〔 In April 2011, the group entered Phantom Manor studios in Chicago, Illinois with producer Brandon Curtis of The Secret Machines and Interpol, who also previously produced the group's 2009 album ''Geneva''. Bassist Brian Cook described the band's mindset for creating ''Empros'' as trying to "make the same ebb and flow of our live set happen on the record, with more constructive dynamics and dramatic bridging between songs."〔〔 The album was also described in a press release from Sargent House as being Russian Circles' heaviest album to date.〔 On September 28, 2011 the song "Mládek" was made available for online streaming and free download. The title of the song was named after Tomáš Mládek, Russian Circles' European tour bus driver.〔 The album was highly-acclaimed by critics at the time of its release, eventually earning an aggregated rating of 86 on Metacritic.〔 In particular, many writers noted how fluent the band's sound had become in its evolution. In his review for Spin, critic Christopher R. Weingarten wrote, "Though crunching at their heaviest, the band still shines brightest when they edge toward indie-rock approachability."〔 ==Track listing== On the digital version, "Batu" spans 10:06 with a drone transition. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Empros」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
