The Album

Angels & Airwaves started work on I-Empire in the beginning of 2007; it is the first album ever recorded in the Macbeth Studio.

On May 20, 2007, in an interview with alternative radio, the band said that the album was 60-70% complete and that the record would be out in October or November 2007. Frontman Tom DeLonge also stated that the album would continue the element of the first album but "times ten," and that in a story, I-Empire would follow We Don't Need to Whisper; We Don't Need to Whisper being a 're-birth' of life, and I-Empire being an album about what you do after the re-birth.

On May 30, 2007, Tom DeLonge stated in an interview with Kerrang! that the new album would be named I-Empire and "this is as exciting as rock 'n' roll gets!"

In the July 18, 2007 edition of Kerrang! magazine, Tom DeLonge confirmed 5 track names from the new album. They are "Star Of Bethlehem", "Secret Crowds", "Breathe", "Sirens" and "Everything's Magic."

On July 29, 2007, as a part of the 'Everybody Hurts' Tour, Angels & Airwaves played 4 new songs from I-Empire for the fans. The songs were Secret Crowds, Sirens, Lifeline, and Everything's Magic, along with an acoustic version of Everything's Magic.

On September 24th, The video for Everything's Magic premiered on MTV2's "Unleashed."

On October 1st, Everything's Magic, Secret Crowds, My Only Fear, Sirens, and Breathe were leaked on to punkdisasters.com
