Press
“Overall, Riotgod’s second release is worth a listen just for being unconventional. They have tapped into something quite good, and very creative. It’s good old fashioned roots-laden heavy melodic rock. If they stay on track, they have the talent to challenge some of the current dull mainstream rock that is out today. If your a fan of Zeppelin, Wolfmother or Soundgarden, I would highly recommend Invisible Empire.”

Riotgod's tour ( with Astral Doors ) originally scheduled for October 2011, was postponed owing to a variety of forces out of our control, and has been being re-scheduled. As soon as dates are confirmed we will surely post them. Think February-March. Definitely February-March
