Full Bio

Exit Empire means deep melodic vocals, electronic production and industrial intensity all shaped into a sound of beauty & darkness, passion & solitude, modern & eternal.

Formed in 2016 in Hodonin, Czech Republic, Exit Empire consists of vocalist and producer Rafael Eimut, guitarist Timmy Ruzicka, and drummer Premek Ruzicka. The band’s 2017 debut established them within the alternative metal & post-hardcore scene, earning Rafael and Timmy the Producers of the Year Award from BanksRadio Australia. Exit Empire further gained recognition by winning The Band Academy competition organized by Grammy-nominated producer Tyler Smyth and platinum-selling producer Joey Sturgis.

Following live performances across Europe and the Middle East in 2018, the band expanded its direction through development sessions in Los Angeles, New York and Prague. In 2019, Exit Empire composed an anthem [First (Call From Mars)](<https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/10ud1eh5e_hgDymgNk_T1_ki0HSbM1iuW?usp=drive_link>) that was selected by an international committee for inclusion on the first European Space Agency rover scheduled to land on Mars as part of the ExoMars programme.

Over the following years, Exit Empire morphed its sound into a darker and more atmospheric blend of alternative rock and electronic production. Their second album, Vampire Seduction (2025), represents the band's most refined work to date, exploring themes of profound romance and the beauty found in sadness.

Currently deep into songwriting for their third studio album, Exit Empire continues to evolve its distinctive fusion of industrial and melodic techno/electronic influences. The themes of their artistic vision are once again shifting significantly, reflecting their current need to express their unfiltered views on society, humanity, and our place in the universe.
