Formed in 2007, Paranorm is a progressive thrash/black/death metal band based in Uppsala, Sweden.

Popular metal site, Angry Metal Guy, reviewed the album, sharing, '...listening to Empyrean reminds me of the way I felt as I unpacked [Death's] Symbolic over the weeks and months after I got it. Thanks to its strong influences, I get a wonderful sense of nostalgia while listening to this record, but after two dozen spins, it still makes me feel as if I've never heard anything quite like it. Paranorm makes thinking-person's metal, but holy wars, Batman, it'll still give you the punishment for which you're undoubtedly due.' Decibel Magazine wrote, 'The band plays a technical, progressive form of thrash metal, but one that still has its dark roots buried in the old proto-black thrash sound of the Teutonic bands like Sodom and Kreator. The style is a fitting backdrop for the band to explore its wider themes of humanity's destiny and the cosmos.'
