We Came As Romans: DARKBLOOM TOUR 2023 ERRA, Brand Of Sacrifice
We Came As Romans
Erra
ERRA is a five-piece progressive metalcore band hailing from Birmingham, Alabama that formed in 2009. Their namesake comes from Akkadian mythology and represents mayhem. The band, consisting of Jesse Cash, Sean Price, Alex Ballew, and JT Cavey, solidified their technical sound after relentlessly practicing and writing. They take their influences from well respected groups like Misery Signals, Born of Osiris, As I Lay Dying and Saosin, and thrive on being creative and showcasing their talent through their intense live performances. ERRA takes great pleasure in offering their refreshing sound in a sometimes stale and over-saturated market. It’s not about fashion or status; it’s about using raw talent and energy to create genuine songs that will give hope to the listener.
Brand Of Sacrifice
Since 2018, Toronto-based deathcore quintet BRAND OF SACRIFICE have been imprinting their mark on
the heavy music scene. Dubbed ‘The Branded Ones,’ the group’s fans joined and marched with them as
they tore across the globe in support of their sophomore album “Lifeblood”, which debuted on 8
separate Billboard charts and earned them a Juno nomination for Metal Album of the Year. Other
highlights included slots on highly anticipated tours with artists like Spiritbox, Thy Art is Murder, We
Came as Romans & more.
BRAND OF SACRIFICE have pushed the envelope even further with their next release ‘Between Death
and Dreams’. With production even more cinematic, exemplified by massive choral soundscapes, brutal
breakdowns, and quite few surprises along the way, the EP is an exceptional evolution of their sound.
Across their releases to date, BRAND OF SACRIFICE have hit 50 million streams and 10 million YouTube
views.
The band draws its name from popular anime series Berserk by Kentaro Miura.
Fans at any BRAND OF SACRIFICE show will be familiar with set-closer “Eclipse” and its ending chant of,
“Welcome to the new age.” With ‘Between Death and Dreams’, it’s evident the band have ushered in
yet another, even fresher era from which there is no turning back.
