The feels. Oh god, the feels. Even without Garrison, I still love these guys. I still feel like I can do anything when I listen to them! Ian is a cool ass dude too. His lows are pretty good. This song is on point, as usual! Can't wait to see them and Thy Art Is Murder next week! And congrats to them for signing to a great label!
I remember finding this band like five or six years ago on iTunes. I found their first EP and Andromeda and it was just incredible. These guys really got me started in the progressive metal direction, and their music has never once digressed; it has ALWAYS progressed. So many band's music often either starts off good, then just changes in a bad way, or they just don't go anywhere. Erra's one of the few that I actually enjoy listening to the newer stuff more than the older stuff.
Hopefully with Sumerian, their music gets the attention it's long deserved, because these guys have been in the industry for a while, but were under the radar. Their music needs to be heard!
This is song is very nostalgic for me for some reason... maybe it's the lyrics. Or the general composition of this track, metalcore was my life through my late teens & adolescence.
Edit: Still is.
that intro/outro is so well written. such a fuckin banger man.
perfectly placed grace notes, weirdly but perfect rests; unpredictable in general but still flowing and beautiful.
damn i love neo-classical. these guys should just drop the heavy portion entirely and write more like the intro lmao.
i still love the entirety of it pls dont flame me
this band >
