Progressive metalcore band Erra will hit the road for a spring 2024 North American headline tour, with Make Them Suffer, Void of Vision and Novelists as support.
Tickets go on sale here at 10 a.m. local time Friday, Feb. 9.
News of the tour comes on the heels of the announcement of Erra’s new album, “Cure,” which will be released April 5 via UNFD. Pre-order it here. The band also shared a video for the new record’s title track.
“‘Cure’ was one of the last songs we wrote for the records,” guitarist/vocalist Jesse Cash said. “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.”
“Cure” is the band’s sixth album, and it highlights and expands on the forward-thinking sound and guitar-driven style that the band has built its reputation on.
