Talking about the nature of Loud As Giants, Dirk Serries marks that for both him and Justin K. Broadrick the project is more like 'a trip down memory lane.' Thirteen years after their collaboration as Fear Falls Burning and Final, these two kindred spirits return with an album that symbolizes their mutual fascination for the 80's culture in which they grew up and all the relevant and groundbreaking genres Justin and Dirk were influenced by.

"Loud As Giants is our collaboration not to invent new music but just to bring together the music we grew up with, were/are inspired by and we just like to do ourselves." – explains Dirk talking about his creative partnership with Broadrick: "So the appreciation has been there since the beginning, and I also think this is the foundation of our collaboration." Having been musically in sync since the early eighties when they both were active in the underground cassette network, and both having the highest appreciation for each other's work for almost two decades, they finally met during a tour where Serries, as Fear Falls Burning, supported JESU.

Justin comments on the beginning of the long partnership with Serries saying: "We had the concept of this project on the back burner for some years. It's taken some time for it
to take shape, but now we feel the time is right, and we have the right record in place." Pandemic, the isolation and global nostalgia became crucial factors that affected both artists carefully uniting together the release that became 'Empty Homes'. "I love isolation, but only when chosen by me, but I love the night, again, empty streets, quiet, I feel like I can exist then. I hate mornings; I hate low sunlight. It immediately depresses me. This album for me embodies a world I personally feel happier in." - explains Broadrick talking about a dream-like state, far from the busyness of big cities and overcrowded streets.

While the image of empty homes united the musical and esthetic part reflected in the music: "Homes fascinate me; the rooms we dwell in and spend our existences in, I can't
quite compute it nor articulate it, but I feel it's all full of loss and emptiness..."
