Pre-order Color Blind
Inclusive of members located in both Cairo and Vancouver, MASSIVE SCAR ERA is a metal band with Egyptian-oriented influences. The band introduces pre-colonial Egyptian music to through their sound, celebrating the Egyptian identity. What does this mean? The violin, which heavily utilizes Egyptian scales and microtones, does not follow the guidelines set by the Cairo Music Conference (1932), held during the British Colonization of Egypt.
From its formation in 2005, MASSIVE SCAR ERA has been heavily involved in supporting gender issues promoting anti-sexual harassment and women empowerment campaigns.
The EP was recorded at Rain City Recorders, Vancouver BC, and carefully mastered by Dan Swano at Unisound AB, Germany. The aforementioned first single has experienced a great deal of positive reception from both new and old fans, as well as the media.
"Egypt's female fronted metal band Massive Scar Era shred a whole new sound."

BIO
Massive Scar Era is a band that kicked off in 2005 from the scenic seaside city of Alexandria, Egypt. Cherine Amr was driven with the idea of forming a metal band out of her passion for playing guitar and singing since she was a teenager. Due to her Family's restrictions, she was only allowed to play music with girls, so the only way for her to play music was to form an all-girls band. After a few false starts at maintaining a cohesive band, she found in the violinist Nancy Mounir her musical companion. They clicked straightaway even with their distinct musical backgrounds. Influenced by both metal, classical and Egyptian music; the band started to garner interest from audiences who were absorbed by the fusion of all those elements.
MSE kept on exploring that unique mix of influences and rehearse a diverse and large number of songs. The curiosity of discovering new sounds allowed the style and tone of the band to evolve. In no time, the band established itself among the music scene by landing a multitude of local gigs and appearances such as in Bibliotheca Alexandrina (Library of Alexandria) and in the S.O.S. Music Festival.
Touring North America and Europe; Massive Scar Era is always excited to share its sound with different parts of the world; experiencing an ultimate connection with the audience through music.

Lyrics: Let me into your universe Let me be another source of life so I’d realize Gravity’s delusion which brings us down I pray I pray God turns us all color blind Take my skin I’ll get a new one with rainbows and butterflies Colors... in colors you see me Black or white Drain the blood in my veins I’ll be empty.. empty Pores all over There’s nothing left, nothing left in me. Fool, I’ll be no more Stretch my arms and find my desire There’s no life of denial If it would end, I’ll take you down Take you down with me When I run, you won't follow me When I die, you’d find care for me
