It occurred to me recently that telling people awesome things about the slightly obscure-r people & bands I am into is probably a better way of making them less obscure than just babbling about them ad nauseum about them as if the people I talk to already know what there is to know. And so here begins a very short series of posts that are a little primer-y and a lot pimp-y.
Before We Begin:
I am not much of an authority on Empires; I'm a recent convert and am still fuzzy on a lot of the history. I'm aiming more to get you interested in these handsome hobos and their music than to give you a detailed look - basically I want you to be able to listen to the music and read what fic there is and also hopefully want to learn more. (When LJ works for me again I will add links to a more detailed, if out-of-date, primer here).
