    I can see for miles across this concrete wasteland
    From the tops of the trees and to the seas
    I can see for miles across this concrete wasteland
    From the tops of the trees and to the seas
    They have all grayed with age
    The broken will of man has become routine and has stretched beyond the horizon
    They have all grayed with age
    The broken will of man has become routine and has stretched beyond the horizon
    A long path
    A long path that once was our destiny
    The city streets are a maze in our mind
    that once was our destiny
    The city streets are a maze in our mind
    Our mind
    A never-ending puzzle lost in a dream
    I pray for those that walk these streets
    that they may see the tops of the towers
    And expand their conscience
    I beg they open up their eyes and bear witness to this crumbling city
    But some things may never change
    Some things may never change
    The sun sets on the metropolis as only streetlights
    Illuminate its collapse
    Mesmerized by illuminated skies
    The towers linger as if watching us fall
    The sun sets on the metropolis
    as only streetlights illuminate its collapse
    I beg they open up their eyes
    and bear witness to this crumbling terror
    But some things may never change
    Some things always stay the same
    But some things may never change
    Mesmerized by illuminated skies
    The towers linger as if watching us fall

      Old school metal didn’t rely on background synths, orchestras, and it the rhythm guitar and bass had so much more melody to them. Modern metalcore sucks tbh

    I’m 30 years old. Been listening to Erra since I was 17. This was the first song I heard from them. I just saw them on theor CURE tour. Fuck it feels good. Anchor Church @ Houston represent. Yall kids dont know. They played their John Wick 5am club esque song on tour. Slow sour Bleed. Started that pit. Dementia too. #1 fan here. I took a guitar lesson from Jesse long ago at Walters. Taught me to slow down in writing and let the music write itself.

      Yeah, ERRA is amazing but nothing beats their old stuff. Impulse, Augment and the EP's that came before, just pure metalcore gold mines. If you don't already know, Alan is in a band called The Artificials, maybe that band will scratch the melodic itch!

      @@mclovinlife4018 Great bands! Yeah I agree that the clean vocals in the Artificials are not really fitting for that type of music. Garrison was a beast behind a mic. ERRA parting ways with Garrison and Rigdon was a huge hit. I keep trying to find something similar but I doubt there is anything. Anyway if you like melodic stuff, maybe try listening to The Afterimage. I respect your musical taste!

It's great to see someone who also likes melodic stuff. But yeah, nothing beats Augment in terms of melodiousness imo.

    It's weird, discovering this music and adoring it as a 20 year old in 2023. I was 7 when this came out, I feel like I somehow *just* missed some event, or thing, in life that I would have loved and found a home in, and instead get to feel nostalgic about a time I never saw, or a place I never was. Definitely overthinking it, but it's a feeling like nothing else and I wouldn't trade it for anything honestly, it's like love found and lost at the same time.

      If you want your mind to be blown away even further, check out the band that lead up to this band, By Blood and Iron. In particular "Infernal Offering." The remnants of that band ended up forming Erra back in the day, and the transformation was wild to see in real time. I'm considerably older than you (35 greybush lol) and have been following Erra since the beginning, I was in my early 20's when I first started listening to them, and the fact that they're STILL relevant and killing it is a testament as to how legendary these guys are. \m/

      2 months late, but a lot of ERRA's old videos (or videos related to the band) were deleted some years back, and there haven't been any reasons why. Alan (former band member) posted an Andromeda guitar promo video that was recovered from a foreign website, and put it on his youtube channel (The Bubbas). Video is called "Erra - Andromeda - 2010 Guitar Promo"
