The monster that is Crown The Empire has evolved enormously since the last time the band played Warped Tour. The theatrical rockers’ new record The Resistance: Rise Of The Runaways is available now and has been met with much praise. The band makes for a truly unique member of the Rise Records roster, which they feel really helps set themselves apart in the music scene as a whole.

At the Vans Warped Tour stop in Wantagh, NY, UTG TV was able to catch up with Benn and Brent from CTE to discuss the newest record, the theatrical element in their music, some stories from the road, and who their closest pals are on Warped Tour.
