Imperial Army (Holy Roman Empire)
The Imperial Army (Latin: ''Exercitus Imperatoris''), german: Kaiserliche Armee, Imperial Troops (''Kaiserliche Truppen''), or Imperials (''Kaiserliche'') for short, was a name used for several centuries, especially to describe soldiers recruited for the Holy Roman Emperor during the Early Modern Period. The Imperial Army of the Emperor should not be confused with the Army of the Holy Roman Empire (''Exercitus Imperii (Romani)'', ''Reichsarmee'', ''Armée du Saint-Empire''), which could only be deployed with the consent of the Imperial Diet. The Imperialists effectively became a standing army of troops under the Habsburg emperor from the House of Austria, which is why they were also increasingly described in the 18th century as "Austrians", although its troops were recruited not just from the Archduchy of Austria but from all over the Holy Roman Empire. The Empire and the Habsburg monarchy The Habsburg monarchy supplied almost all the Holy Roman Emperors during the Early Mod ...

History In 2003, Kris had co-founded the drone rock band Expo '70 together with his friend (and guitarist for Living Science Foundation), Justin Wright, while improvising together during a recording session in Los Angeles of Kris's noise rock project, SXBRS. The recordings were released together as a split CDR on Kris's label, Kill Shaman, and two shows were played live (with Parts & Labor and Tyondai Braxton, respectively). After creating another improvisational studio recording, ''Live July 18, 2004'', creative differences arose regarding touring preferences, and PK began recording instead as Germ ...
