Although I usually cannot identify a good song, I imagined an image after listening to this song.

The boss told me to imagine something relating to EMPRESS. A mechanical image then came to mind. An image of a computer motherboard came up, like an empress grabbing hold of the world around her.

This is a different image that I usually imagine up for these genres.
