🇵🇱 @empathytest buduje własny styl na styku chwytliwych melodii, chłodnej elektroniki i dużego ładunku emocji. To projekt, który z powodzeniem łączy współczesne synthpopowe brzmienie z atmosferą bliską dark wave’owej wrażliwości. 〰️〰️〰️〰️ 🇬🇧 @empathytest has built its own style at the intersection of catchy melodies, cool electronics, and a strong emotional charge. It is a project that successfully combines a contemporary synthpop sound with an atmosphere close to dark wave sensitivity. 🎫 Tickets: link in bio #castlepartyfestival2026 #castlepartyfestival #castleparty #gothicfestival #goth #gothfestival #gothic #festival #darkwave #gothicmusic #darkpop #darkelectro #darkrock #ebm #darkambient #darkambientmusic #industrial #industrialmusic #neofolk #darkfolk #darkindustrial #postpunk #coldwave #empathytest

A very happy birthday to our drummer David Leisser, who is very much the rock on which our live band is built, and without which the rest of us would probably not survive. As well as being a power house of physical energy on stage, he also keeps us organised while we're on the road, and looks out for our physical and mental well-being too. Coming on board as a stand-in for Chrisy during Covid, it soon became clear David was here to stay, and as he grew into the role, he brought a new punch to our live performances and a new professionalism to our touring. We can't thank him enough for all his hard work over the last few years and which him all the best for the coming year. We'll see him next at Wave Gotike Treffen but hopefully sometime sooner! #empathytest #empathytestband #drummers #davidleisser davidleisserdrums

A very happy belated birthday to one of the most talented, beautiful and bravest women we know, Nadine Green (@Nadiplaysthekeys ). I had the pleasure of celebrating her birthday with her in person after my solo show in Hannover at the weekend but hungover and extremely tired on my travels home, I forgot to make a public post, so here it is. If you don't know the story of our Nadine joined @empathytest , I'll tell you now, as it's quite unique. It was 2022, and with Chrisy having been replaced by David on drums and Oliver wishing to focus on his solo career, I was on the look out for a female keyboard player, to help maintain the dynamic of the live band. Specifically, we needed someone to cover for Oli at @stella_nomine_festival in Germany. It just so happened that around that time, Empathy Test was playing a show in Augsburg, Nadine's home town. Nadine accidentally posted publicly an Instagram story that was supposed to be for her friends only, asking if anyone wanted to come to the show with her. I spotted it and noticed she was a keyboard/piano player and asked her to say hi after the show. Two weeks later, she was performing with us in front of 1000+ people at Stella Nomine, having only ever played one small show with a local band before that. She was incredibly nervous but did an amazing job - and the rest as they say, is history. Nadine continues to surprise us - and most of all, I think, herself, as we all navigate a difficult world both on and off stage, and while it looked for a moment like it was already the end of the story, and that the band might be over, it seems now that we can still look forward to new music (more news on that soon) and more tours together soon. So happy birthday again Nadine, and here's to the future 🍻 Photo by @hr_pictures_helge #empathytest #empathytestband #nadinegreen

Stockholm, we are here! There are still a few tickets available on the door but it's going to be nice and busy at Debaser tonight. Thanks again to everyone at The Abyss in Gothenberg for a lovely evening and please do check out the awesome support band, Anadyr. Tonight, we have MORE (the band!) kicking things off at 8pm.

2016: our first ever band rehearsal with Chrisy and Jacob, performing Last Night on Earth in Adam's bedroom in Muswell Hill, North London. Seems like a decade ago 😅

It feels like we often lose the best people too soon. Edminister Engler was one of them. A huge supporter of Empathy Test and my solo work, Ed never shied away from sharing the tragic events of his final years, while continuing to stay positive and listen to the music he loved. Check out my post on Forever Missed and add your own memories too. Link on my profile.
