Era Vulgaris were formed in Dublin in 2004 and instantly set about creating the kind of music they wished someone was writing. Recruiting drummer Chris Con in 2005 gave them a further unique sound, a drummer with a new found passion for metal whose only prior drumming experience was break beat, jazz and electronica - things were starting to get interesting.
Their debut album What Stirs Within was entirely self-financed and then released through Open Your Ears Music, a label started by the band to gain the attention of distributors and press who would otherwise have passed them off as another unsigned metal band.
Hard work is the central element that keeps Era Vulgaris together, having secured a full UK & Ireland distribution deal with PlasticHead/Code7 they are now looking to play in every town they can across Britain.
The album has been lauded in all corners, Rock Sound Magazine named them as one of their 100 bands to watch in 2007, calling them "prog-metal overlords in waiting" and the album has received stunning reviews so far ("an eight track stunner...get it" Live4Metal, "a sound that is consistently their own...listen to it" MetalIreland, "a great cd...a must hear" MetalTeamUK) and slowly the name is starting to spread out beyond their Emerald Isle and across the seas.
