About Napoleon:
Formed in early 2018, Napoleon has rapidly become a prominent name in the Canadian alt-punk/post-hardcore scene. Hailing from Toronto, the four-piece band has garnered praise for their energetic performances and impactful music. Napoleon was featured in Alternative Press as one of "23 Canadian bands Silverstein's Shane Told knows will keep the scene alive," highlighting their significance in the industry.
Napoleon's live shows are renowned for their intensity and engagement, described by Canadian Beats Magazine as "loud, sweaty, and completely overwhelming in all of the best ways." The band has shared stages with notable acts such as Escape The Fate, Single Mothers, and Fame On Fire, and has performed at major festivals including NXNE and Canadian Music Week.
Since 2020, Napoleon has been managed by Scott Middleton of Cancer Bats. They continue to collaborate with prominent figures in the Canadian music scene. Their latest EP, Enemy Within (2021), features guest vocals from Shane Told of Silverstein and Corbin Giroux (ex-Rarity), while their 2020 single "Amends" features Luke Bentham of The Dirty Nil.
