"Press Empire new Dublin Band"

"Far from treading water in the usual murk of most upstart indie bands, Press Empire opt instead for lush instrumentation and produce vocal harmonies so tight you couldn't fit a one cent coin between them...deserves to be sung by festival crowds"
- The Star, Hot 5 (Essential New Music). - The Star Newspaper


"Speechless..."

I could wax lyrical about how good Press Empire are, but I'm not going to bore you -listen to the songs - they speak for themselves - you'll like them"
- JP, The Ray Foley Show - Today FM


"Furiously Confident!!"

"Furiously confident, a seemigly endless parade of instruments and vocals that really steal the show."
- Celina Murphy, Hotpress
- Hotpress Magazine


"Press Empire 6/6"

"When we think of Irish Indie rock music we say Codes,Delorentos.. we can now add Press Empire to that list. Generating enough musical energy from every song and injecting classical music talent into the vein of the sound, this is one band that will stand tall amongst the music scene today. Remember the name Press Empire because they will be a radio favourite for sure. Superb stuff. 6 out of 6"

"Press Empire"

“Press Empire are a quintet who flit between influences. On “Golden Lies” they combine the soaring harmonies we associate with the Beach Boys with the common sense of ELO to come with a catchy, radio-friendly track. “I Can Still Remember” has a more sombre feel, rattling drums and tight harmonies, topped up with a lush production by Liam Mulvaney. “Who You Are” is a more balladic offering, with plaintive vocals, a Beatlish arrangement and a lazy feel to perfectly soundtrack a balmy summer’s day. This is classy stuff in the quality pop tradition.”
