"Boston's Screams of Erida have fashioned a blend of metal that involves catchy songs and excellent vocals. They have earned a following throughout the New England area thanks to their intense live performances and aggressive sound."
- Kathleen Giordano, NEMO
In the June of 2004, Screams of Erida released a six song EP titled BURN THE WORLD with producer Ken Susi (Unearth). Ken produced, engineered and mixed the EP in his private studio. The EP received positive reviews from many magazines, e-zines and fans.
Screams of Erida have been touring the northeast region steadily since the release of BURN THE WORLD which gained them endorsements from VHT Application, Spector Basses, Rock Star Energy Drink, Threadless Clothing and Destiny Clothing. They have also performed along side numerous national acts such as Unearth, As I lay Dying, Misery Signals, Atreyu, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Deftones, Thrice, A Life Once Lost, Remembering Never, The Autumn Offering, Cattle Decapitation, Emery, If Hope Dies and more.
In March of 2006, the band won the Taste of Chaos Tour/Myspace.com contest. They were voted number one by thousands of myspace.com members which allowed them to perform at the Taste of Chaos Massachusetts show at the Tsongas Arena.
This fall Screams of Erida will be releasing their full-length debut titled THE RED TESTAMENT. The album was recorded from January to March with producer Ken Susi (Unearth), and was mixed by Eric Rachel (A Life Once Lost, Every Time I Die, Atreyu, Dead to Fall). The band plans to keep performing regionally to promote their release and branch out into the national circuit.

Reviews
"I just cant get enough of this stuff. Six extremely talented musicians decided to make brutal music and out came a mixture out of Unearth and Cataract...really impulsive and full of hate with that great traditional Heavy-Metal edge. Highly recommended." - Dare Devil Magazine
"With so much garbage out there SOE is a breath of fresh air. Very heavy, better than most new bands I hear. I expect big things from them in the future."- Iann Robinson - MTV VJ
"The last time an album of this type of music impressed me this much was when Killswitch Engage put out "Alive or Just Breathing." Given the right chance at the right time, Screams have what it takes to be huge, not just in the underground, but the mainstream world of modern rock." - Bogus Rendition
"Screams of Erida are an exception to the regurgitation. They come hailing from Boston, MA with a serious mix of aggression and melody. The self titled EP has six intense tracks that kept my head moving and ears begging for more." - Hardcore Sounds
"Containing six songs, Burn the World is one of the best EP's I've heard. Screams of Erida's catchy hardcore, leaning towards metal, could be described as a mix of Heaven Shall Burn and Caliban." - Rokkizine
"Equal parts Brutal and Carnal, this TRIPLE guitar lineup has been tearing up the New England Metalcore scene since rising from the ashes of the band Spyndakit. The live show is a high energy sweat-fest, bringing back what was once lost in the glam age of nu-metal... plainly put, listening this band makes me want to eat a dead baby, and like it. " - Fuck Your Band
