Vinyl Record Era - The Mass [LP] (Limited Edition, Colored Vinyl)

Era is a unique musical project created in 1997 by French composer and multi-instrumentalist Eric Levy. The band's sound is based on a unique combination of elements of electronic music, rock, Gregorian chorales, and ethnic motifs that form a deep atmosphere of mystical epicism. The project gained worldwide fame thanks to the track “Ameno”, which instantly took over the European charts and became a cult composition of its time. In total, ERA has sold over 12 million albums worldwide. ERA's music is characterized by a unique style reminiscent of such bands as Enigma, Gregorian and Deep Forest. A distinctive feature is the use of pseudo-Latin in the lyrics, medieval themes in the lyrics, as well as a special aesthetics of performances and videos, where the participants appear in knightly armor and medieval costumes. Deep vocals, melody and rhythmic electronics create a real world of mystery and spiritual sublimity.

The Mass is the third studio release by Era, released in 2003. This album continues to develop the project's distinctive sound, where classical choral arrangements are combined with modern musical elements. The title track “The Mass”, inspired by the motifs of “O Fortuna” from Carl Orff's “Carmina Burana”, has become one of the most famous works of the Era. The album received platinum status in France and Switzerland, which confirms its great success among listeners.
