A NEW heavy metal band has been formed featuring some of the most recognisable villains in the galaxy.
Galactic Empire featuring Dark Vader (lead guitar), Boba Sett (drums), Bass Commander (bass), Shadow Ranger (guitar) and Red Guard (guitar) are preparing to strike the UK, which is to become the first of the Empire's new colonies.
Lightsabers and blasters have proven to be weak against the rebel scum, so now they will be attacking with guitars, bass and drums, performing classic pieces from the iconic soundtrack of the Star Wars films, written by John Williams.
Vader (guitar) had the following to say: "These instruments are crude but should be adequate to shred some faces as we journey across the galaxy. We have been doubling our efforts to complete our debut full-length album in time for The Emperor's arrival. Citizens of the United Kingdom: If you are not part of the Rebel Alliance or a traitor, prepare to be shown the true power of the dark side."
Ably supported by rogue solo maverick Nick Johnston.
Galactic Empire perform at The Globe, Cardiff on February 7, 2017.
