You should definetly checkout Impulse next. I still consider it my favorite Erra album. They have yet to release anything that I havent enjoyed though.

The guitar work in this is the best in metalcore I've ever heard

This is the best metalcore album ever created imo. The absolute pinnacle of the genre. Greyview by Invent Animate is the only one that comes close for me personally.

I totally agree. As I Lay Dying - The Powerless Rise is up there for me.

To this day, a legendary album in the genre imo. Easily one of my comfort albums. It’s so full of complexity with odd drum patterns, fancy guitar work and huge vocals. I can only imagine how fun yet hard this was to write.

The lyricism in this record is phenomenal.

Also would be great if you cover up whole Erra and Northlane discography. You definitely should hear Northlane's the most depressive piece of work (Mesmer).

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. :)

Nothing will ever even come close to this album. It’s perfection

For me, this album is what catapulted ERRA to the scene. I mean, Hybrid Earth used to be their halo song until newer albums came along. But nothing beats the guitar work in this album.

This Album got me into these djenty riffs. i love this since the first time i've heard augment...

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.

To this day the best Metalcore Album ever made. The self titled comes close, but this album is just something special

Such a masterpiece

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.

Yes, my dude it definitely will grow on you. I did not even notice Crimson first time, but now it is my favourite Erra track alongside Luminesce and Eye of God

@8JFJK8

Жыл бұрын

Yeah Luminesce is one of the most underrated ERRA tracks. Crimson is a banger for sure.

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.

This is unquestionably their crown jewel

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

ive been missing out on ERRA lmao. what a great band.

I dont know if i've heard an ERRA riff that doesnt slap, these guys are on another level

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.

Please for the love of all that is good do a reaction to Drift. Still my number 1 album by them

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 best metal minutes of life

You will like their album NEON also. breach is definitely an s tier ERRA track!

If a genie gave me 3 wishes, i would wish for all of them to be a remake of Augment with JT updated for the new age

Stillworld by Invent Animate (2016) Augment by ERRA ( 2013) Constellations by August Burns Red (2009) best metalcore albums ever :)

You said in your Periphery announcement that their label has shafted you. I would look into the rights of the tracks... p4 and p5 are self produced and I don't think they are copyright crazy. Might be wrong but look into it.

It's the greatest album of all time.

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

ERRA, the best metalcore lml

The greatest metalcore(if you want to call it that) album of all time. I’ve listened to it thousands of times over the last 12 years. Impulse is almost as good, but still better than most of the stuff put out today.

Alan was also a huge piece in the writing and playing on this album. His abscense is noticeable in their work following Augment.

Also couple hidden gems for the future - Forevermore - Integral and Auras - Heliospectrum. Honestly 2016 was the best year for the progressive metalcore. Unfortunately it went to decline after that, more and more bands became something completely different

Impulse and Augment are definitely a peg above everything they've produced since then. Should have never kicked Alan. There's a reason these albums (Impulse and Augment) have such a huge cult following.

the first 2 albums of erra are goated

The guitar solo in Hybrid Earth is still my favorite guitar solo and I agree with you on Crimson its my most skipped track on the album

As an newer ERRA fan, I must say, their early work hits hard. New ERRA is great but Old ERRA is God tier. Dementia is the best song ERRA has release. Hands down.

One of the most overrated albums of 2010's)

Wait till you hear Impulse. My absolute favorite album still after all these years

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.
