The Empty Bottles

is a Belgian punk / streetpunk band formed in 2008, from the southwest of Flanders, Belgium (Waregem/Kortrijk/Ieper region). After some line-up changes, the band forms a solid crew, consisting of:

• lead vocals                                  Cursing Christ
• 2nd vocals/bagpipe*                 Dirk Balcaen a.k.a. Dirky McBall
• guitar                                           Ward Ameel
• bass                                             Jurgen Van Heghe a.k.a. Rekr
• battery                                        Tom Taillieu

* Remark: the bagpipe is only for a couple of intro’s; we’re not just another Dropkick Murphy’s clone 🙂
