Le groupe Empyr se compose de deux membres de Kyo - Benoît Poher (chant) et Florian Dubos (guitare) - et de Frédéric Duquesne (guitare) du groupe Watcha, Benoît Julliard (basse) du groupe Pleymo et Josselin Moze (percussions), l'ancien batteur du groupe Vegastar. Les musiciens unissent leurs forces après s'être retrouvés dans la maison de Florian afin de jouer ensemble. Dès lors, le groupe voit le jour.

Un album résolument rock
La formation s'éloigne du répertoire de Kyo pour composer des morceaux beaucoup plus rock. Pour son premier album, The Peaceful Riot, dans les bacs en mai 2008, Empyr fait le choix d'interpréter tous ses morceaux, dont le single New Day, en anglais. Les musiciens enregistrent leur premier projet à Los Angeles sous la houlette du producteur Ken Andrews.

Rock music is a genre of popular music with a prominent vocal melody, accompanied by electric guitar, bass guitar, and drums. Many styles of rock music also use keyboard instruments such as organ, piano, mellotron, and synthesizers. Other instruments sometimes utilized in rock include saxophone, harmonica, violin, flute, French horn, banjo, melodica, and timpani. Also, less common stringed instruments such as mandolin and sitar are used. Rock music usually has a strong back beat, and often revolves around the guitar, either solid electric, hollow electric, or acoustic.

Rock music has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rock and roll and rockabilly, which evolved from blues, country music and other influences. According to Allmusic, "In its purest form, Rock & Roll has three chords, a strong, insistent back beat, and a catchy melody. Early rock & roll drew from a variety of sources, primarily blues, R&B, and country, but also gospel, traditional pop, jazz, and folk. All of these influences combined in a simple, blues-based song structure that was fast, danceable, and catchy."[1]

In the late 1960s, rock music was blended with folk music to create folk rock, blues to create blues-rock and with jazz, to create jazz-rock fusion, and without a time signature to create psychedelic rock. In the 1970s, rock incorporated influences from soul, funk, and latin music. Also in the 1970s, rock developed a number of subgenres, such as soft rock, heavy metal, hard rock, progressive rock, and punk rock. Rock subgenres that emerged in the 1980s included New Wave, hardcore punk and alternative rock. In the 1990s, rock subgenres included grunge, Britpop, indie rock, and nu metal.

A group of musicians specializing in rock music is called a rock band or rock group. Many rock groups consist of a guitarist, lead singer, bass guitarist, and a drummer, forming a quartet. Some groups omit one or more of these roles and/or utilize a lead singer who plays an instrument while singing, sometimes forming a trio or duo; others include additional musicians such as one or two rhythm guitarists and/or a keyboardist. More rarely, groups also utilize stringed instruments such as violins or cellos, and/or horns like saxophones, trumpets or trombones.
