"Secret Crowds" reached fans with the rest of I-Empire on November 1, 2007, when Angels & Airwaves put their second album up as a download on the band's own website, a few days before the CD hit shops in Britain, Ireland, the US and Canada. The music is credited to the whole band, the words to Tom DeLonge.

DeLonge sold the record as a sequel: if We Don't Need to Whisper was about being reborn, I-Empire would be about what you do next, the first album's approach multiplied by ten. They made it at Jupiter Sound, the first album ever recorded there, with Matt Wachter now on bass, and it came out a shade mellower and more ambient, DeLonge's words turning more toward relationships than war and conflict.
