Miss May I - A Dance With Aera Cura

iTUNES: smarturl.it/mmi...
MERCH: riserecords.mer...
A kiss of shame temps me to question love.
Your sweet taste,
Kills all beauty.
Eyes of a goddess I fall prison to.
A heart of a fool,
I've been cursed .
A goddess of love
She imprisons me
So take my, take my hand
I won't forget
Her skin is crawling with regret
The feeling of nothing
Is this all she ever wanted
Her dress flows red, shimmering.
Reflections of the damned
Cast upon walls.
They scream for salvation.
Breaking everything you seem to love
Breaking everything you seem to love
She rises up from the shallows
She rises up from the shallows
Breaking everything you seem to love
I will never forget
I won't forget
I won't forget

this album still goes sooo fucking hard man, wow

[@iamepidemic9078]

Fuck I forgot how tough this album was... The better part of a decade later and I'm driving down 45 at 1am blaring this shit as loud as my speakers will get like its fucking 2010 all over again. Crazy how I never even forgot the words.

Christian John Dude we need to hang cause thats all i do, but u can hear this shit on my subs in mycar, and i have thr biggest metal cd collection sitting in my car jus waiting to get played

[@brianlopez4038]

Some lol but I’ve stopped listening to this type of music altogether but so cool lol it’s been 4 years for me

[@paranormalworld5328]

45 N right here baby ;)

[@paranormalworld5328]

@@brianlopez4038 I hope you can find the time to come back. If you say na.. You should have never commented or listened to this track again. Jumpship mate ;) Not tryna put you down but get you back up. This music is everything compared to messages rap music give out now and days. It's okay to mature but it's also ok to have fun a little ya know. Shit. We can just meet up at August Burns Red show and be at the bar drinking while we see ourselves going crazy in the pits again. Sorry. Im 29 and I feel no matter how old I get. Metalcore will never leave my soul for me to enjoy.

[@fspsyco1]

this song is hands down one of the best they ever made imo

Classic Metalcore record. Everyone was jamming this shit hard back in the day twisting up the blunts~

[@christiansearcy5963]

It's sad that 2009 is considered "classic" these days, lol. MY classic metalcore extends all the way back to 2003 (with ABR Thrillseeker) :D

[@MrHellohowdoyoudo12]

Chris Dahlke i know that Miss May I is metalcore but i could only hear a deathcore sound on this record (except the cleans)

[@simytherogue]

Christian Searcy ABR THRILL SEEKER IS MY SHIT. Favorite band of all time. I didn't discover them until 2010, so sad :( :(

Christian Searcy Don't want to be an asshole or what, but Thrill Seeker was released in 2005 and A Dance With Aera Cura by "Miss May I" was released in 2007 in their EP "Vows for a Massacre" so it's pretty close! Nah back in 2003 it was more stuff like As I Lay Dying and Killswitch Engage haha

[@christiansearcy5963]

Oh crap, you're right. wonder why i thought 2003, lol

[@JeremyAmacherPunkrockin4220]

[@TheBallinCollin96]

This album is still my favorite by them. I loved showing this to my friends back when no one knew about them.

[@toospooked4594]

[@schister6677]

Saw Miss May I with Parkway Drive a month back and have been on a Miss May I binge since. Got to meet Levi and the rest of the band...cool guys, great concert.

[@madcarlos4668]

THAT OUTRO IS SO SICK, I WANT TO CRY

[@jefftX]

Holy shit this came out in 2010...it's 2019 now as I type this. This was hands down one of the best metalcore albums ever released. I remember jamming the shit out of this album as a teenager. My and my friends were so hyped listening to it we were shaking the care back and forth while listening. Miss this kind of music.

[@daneblum5303]

Now it’s 2024 and we still vibe it

[@TommyWitDaTone]

I really feel like this album came out at the wrong time. This is imo one of the greatest metalcore records of all time but it didn't get as much attention as it should've because it came out at a time when the whole scenecore thing was happening - bands like Attack Attack, Asking Alexandria, etc. If this album would've came out at least 5 years earlier when bands like Lamb of God, Killswitch Engage, Shadows Fall, and All That Remains were leading metalcore, this band would've been huge.

[@darwinLee81283]

I have to Agree

[@TheJohnnee]

This feels like a bridge between those two metalcore eras tbh

[@NinaSylveon]

I loved this song so much when I was like 11 years old. 8 years later now I found it again and I still love it!

After listening to their new Album „curse of existence“ i came back to listen to this masterpiece of an Album , and i think it is by far their best Album. The heaviness, the blast Beats, the drums, the guitars, the Perfect Recording - everything is raw, heavy and fast. Even the unclean vocals are heavier. „Curse of existence“ is good, but „Apologies are for the weak“ really hits me like a Truck!😅

[@aritrapandit1001]

To me, "Apologies are for the weak" is surely one of the greatest metal records ever written, not just in metalcore, but the entire genre.

[@IAmEpidemix]

15 year anniversary tour this fall!!! LETS FUCKIN GO BOYS

[@victordeltoro7400]

I remember when i heard this song for the first time. It was way ahead of it's time.

[@theogtinyweiner5879]

Hands down top 3 metalcore albums ever recorded.

[@12NiBer12]

Together with All That Remains - Fall of Ideals, As I Lay Dying 2005 and 2007 albums (and 2019 is really good), KSE - As Daylight Dies, Parkway Drive - Horizons (others good too), Trivium - Ascendancy (2003 also good) and so on.

I recently realised that this song, the first song on AAFTW, ends with the line "I won't forget", while Forgive & Forget, the final song on AAFTW, ends with a repetition of "I won't forget". I wonder if that was intentional...? (Probably not I just thought it was cool)

[@raconbacon5649]

Maybe it was. If it started with the line "i wont forget". That would have been more interesting

[@livecarsonreaction]

Saw them at Chain Reaction way back in 2017. I was so happy when they played this song. One of the best shows I've ever been to.

[@DraculaXHunter101]

The Black Dahlia Murder influence is so high in the first Miss May I album. It screams TBDM with some extra shit thrown in.

[@galanoth619]

+DraculaXHunter101 i know man this album is fairly underrated i know l lot of people who dont like MMI after listening to this album will be amazed

[@DraculaXHunter101]

Aaron S Miss May I still gives credit to this album. They still play A Dance With Aera Cura live. Plus of course Forgive and Forget. One day, They need to tour for this album. Shit would be amazing.

[@TheWellenoughalone]

it was from this very album that i was lead slowly to gravitate to BDM, Left miss may i ever since but i still like this album. Now i listen to Black Dahlia religiously

[@DraculaXHunter101]

TheWellenoughalone Check out Monument, But the other albums sound nothing like these album. But Deathless comes pretty close. But this album was their peak. Black Dahlia is still pushing the foundation so well

[@hernanhironymus]
