Emperor Cabs: A Metalhead Mystery Tour

April 22, 2009
Emperor Cabs Factory Tour

Now that we've heard the quality of the loudness made in the Emperor Cabs factory, let's take a look at the digs where the music comes from. Owner Dylan Patterson shows us proudly around the basement that he and his staff now call home, and we learn some basic secrets behind making cabs that some of the loudest names in local (and national, let's not be shy) metal are proud to call their own.

By the way, you ever hear that old adage, "the cobbler's children wear no shoes"? Apparently this does not hold true at Emperor Cabs.
