ERRA - Cure (CD)

'Cure' is the first single and title track from Alabama based metalcore giants ERRA' new
album "Cure" (April 5th, 2024). This release marks the first new album from the band since
their critically acclaimed S/T album ERRA released in March of 2021 (+42mil streams | 7000
LPs | 4000 CDs). The latter received praise from the likes of Wall of Sound stating 'Strong,
driving, technical metalcore riffs and melodic undertones are ERRA's bread and butter, but
this album really takes all of that to another level', Metal Injection 'I always viewed Drift as
their finest work, yet the more I take in this self-titled LP, the more I'm confident that it may
emerge with the gold medal. The vocals sound way stronger, the hooks shine through,
there's tasteful experimentation, and most noteworthy is the refined guitar work' and New
Noise 'ERRA (S/T) is a mesmerizing distillation of ERRA's thirteen-year career, one that
boldly refracts and refines the group's sound'.
"Cure was one of the last songs we wrote for the record. I had this groove riff that I was just
so obsessed with, to the point that I wanted to stay with it for the full duration of the song. So
even though the song stays in 4/4 for the most part, we're always staying locked into this
dotted sequence of on rhythm guitars and kick, making the rhythm feel complex yet easy to
latch onto as a listener. In the final breakdown section, we stay with this dotted sequence,
but switch the time signature to 6/8 for a few bars, before reverting back to 4/4 to close out
the song. These playful tinkerings with time signature serve as a suitable introduction to the
approach we took with grooves throughout the whole record." - Jesse Cash
