Erra release new song ‘Scorpion Hymn’

ERRA have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Scorpion Hymn, is taken from the Birmingham, AL-based progressive metalcore band’s upcoming new self-titled album which is scheduled to be released in March this year.

Speaking about the new song, vocalist J.T. Cavey says, “the song features almost the entire spectrum of my voice. Producer Grant McFarland and Jesse Cash [guitarist] assisted on creating an ominous chorus that gets stuck in your head. The title refers to the fable of The Scorpion and the Frog, about the nature of violent instinct. It lent a means of having aggressive lyrics to complement the aggressive style of the instrumentals. The theme deviates in the middle section with about eight lines about self-reflection, hazy identity, perhaps imposter syndrome, and as the final group of lines that summarize the development of jaded feelings towards aged aspirations.”
