    this is their best album. I ve listened them from Impulse release, and this album was the masterpiece between the Alan Ridgdons emotional parts and the heavy parts from Jasse Cash and his singing. Jasses singing on this recording is mainly his best, which he did in the studio, he didn't really do it live, but it's still their his best record. included EXCEPTIONAL CRIMSON. I think this is their BEST SONG EVER. :)

    Boy, I'm late to the party on this one. This was definitely my gateway into the more technical side of metal. Me and my buddies would go for long car rides all the time just listening to this on repeat. I know it's a bit lengthy but at this point in time I couldn't imagine a single track being removed. It's such a solid and well thought-out album and one of my all-time favorites forever. It holds a special place in my heart.

    The guitar work is always S tier with ERRA. I think the difference is JT and Jesse have truly found a vocal mixture that is pure magic to layer on top of the riffs and breakdowns. ERRA is the greatest out at the moment IMO.
    I would love to see a remastered Augment with JT doing unclean vocals.

    In my opinion, a metalcore classic that should be placed alongside the likes of Define the Great Line, Fall of Ideals, etc. and seen as an early watermark for progressive metalcore. And yeah, the harp became a meme for Erra fans for the first few albums

  • @cloudrise
    @cloudrise ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Man it hurt my soul a bit to have you talk over the Hybrid Earth solo and the soaring vocal outro in Dementia (in the reflection of the water's stream part) but overall a great watch. I do think a song could have been trimmed towards the latter half of the album but it is still in my top 5 of all time easily.

    This album came out when I was a freshman in college around October I think but I have just nostalgia of all the leaves and wind In the southern states of the US. It was just a simple time for me. Go to school, play in a band, go home study/game drive 30 mins back to school everyday. This album was just in the pocket for me everyday. I can't help but think how lucky the fans are to have had this gem during the time it came out and listening to the music landscape around it. Nothing compared. NOTHING. I found the album to be what I loved from Saosin that i never got more of and mix of something that was just uncontained melodic chaos. This album will turn 10 years old and I'm just so shocked that 1. It came out that long ago 2. It still demands a space in modern releases. Love this album. And I can say the same for all our gods.

    Still ERRA's best album and the best overlooked and underrated progressive metalcore album idc what anyone says. When they lost their other guitarist ERRA was never quite the same it was a match made in heaven. Alan was the perfect fit and perfect ying to Jessies yang. Losing their vocalist Garrison who was a beast also didnt help. I just wish they all made one more album after Augment I would've loved to hear the progression. Also their drummers unique playstyle especially in Impulse and Augment is what really makes them special. Do yourself and favor and check out their Impulse album as well.

    The album of theirs before this one sounds even better imo. It's not as "produced" and just sounds a bit more natural and beautiful. No metal album has topped it for me, but this one sits right alongside it comfortably. I'd understand if someone preferred it. I just love the lighter almost angelic sound of Impulse
    Haven't really dug anything they've released since this one. They became more generic, felt less like the standout band they were here. Garrison Lee was a monster of a vocalist

    Love this album. I still prefer ERRAs self titled because of how versatile it is and how every single song sounds so unique from the other. I find with this album, every song is a banger but many of the songs give the same vibe and have the same guitar tuning. It all sounds similar to me personally. OG erra fans going to get mad @ me.
