2) Hailing from Brazil, AURAS was formed in the beginning of 2007 by Gui Oliver (lead vocals) and Ferpa Lacerda (guitars). Tired of playing in cover bands and feeling that they were musically mature, both musicians decided to show the audience their own music.
The first song they wrote together “Hungry Hearts” was exposed to fans and selected press gathering excellent responses also from famous producers and musicians around the world. After the warm reception of “Hungry Hearts”, Gui Oliver and Ferpa Lacerda moved forward and recorded another few songs in order to find a label that could give them the chance to show the big audience their music.
During the recording process the great jazz drummer Edu Sallum, who had already played with Rafael Moreira (Pink, Christina Aguilera, Rockstar INXS, Paul Stanley), joined the band.
In 2008 the band had the chance to be face to face with their idols Jeff Scott Soto and Jimi Jamison when they opened their gig in Curitiba, AURAS hometown. When the band was on stage Jimi Jamison mentioned that AURAS songs took him back to the eighties and reminded him of the great bands of that period.
It was just a matter of time really and a few weeks later the band signed with Frontiers Records and they were the first band from South America to sign with the Italian label. What once was a dream had become reality. Gui, Ferpa and Edu therefore joined forces with the local studio musicians Matt Brandon and Hemerson Vieira and started to record their first album called “New Generation”. The album was finally mixed and mastered to sonic perfection by Dennis Ward (Pink Cream 69, Sunstorm, Place Vendome, Khymera etc.).
Influenced by bands like Journey, Survivor, Toto and Chicago, AURAS tries to mix in their music new elements to the classic AOR/Melodic Rock style. AURAS want to be recognized as a real band, not another music project.
Love, dreams, faith and hope are what AURAS music is all about.

Auras Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To find our niches within this world
So how do we still feel shapeless?
Where do we even belong?
Why do we feel shapeless?
Where do we belong?
Where do I fit in this puzzle?
So many pieces left
Confused with every breath
Like lost children in a tunnel
Crawling from the darkness
To get me out from this hole
We are all here searching ourselves
To find our niches within this world
My chest is shapeless and vacant
Yet my heart feels so heavy
I feel my dreams have awakened
Yet my mind, it feels so empty
Where do I fit in this puzzle?
So many pieces left
I'm lost within this struggle
Confused with every breath
Like lost children in a tunnel
Crawling from the darkness
To get me out from this hole
We are all lost.
The lyrics of AURAS's song "Cosmic Black" convey the feeling of being lost and searching for one's place in the world. The singer questions why they still feel shapeless, even though they are trying to find their niche in the world. They express confusion and a sense of struggling to find where they belong, feeling like lost children crawling from darkness. The singer's chest is shapeless and vacant, and their mind feels empty despite their dreams awakening. Ultimately, the song is about feeling lost in a confusing world and searching for meaning and purpose.
The lyrics of "Cosmic Black" reflect the broader themes of AURAS's music, which is often introspective and emotional. The band's debut album, "New Generation," deals with themes of self-discovery, relationships, and mental health. The song's title, "Cosmic Black," also evokes a sense of cosmic or transcendent themes, suggesting that the search for meaning and purpose is part of a larger existential journey.
Line by Line Meaning
We're all here searching ourselves
We are all on a journey to discover our true selves
To find our niches within this world
To discover our purpose and place in this world
So how do we still feel shapeless?
Despite our search, we still feel incomplete and unsure of who we are
Where do we even belong?
We are unsure of our place and where we fit in
Why do we feel shapeless?
We feel like we lack direction and purpose
Where do I fit in this puzzle?
Where do I belong? What is my role in this world?
So many pieces left
There is still so much we don't know and have yet to discover
I'm lost within this struggle
I am struggling to find my place and purpose
Confused with every breath
I am uncertain and anxious about my future
Like lost children in a tunnel
We are lost and trying to find our way in the darkness
Crawling from the darkness
We are slowly making progress towards our goals and finding our way out of uncertainty
To get me out from this hole
To overcome our struggles and find direction and purpose in life
My chest is shapeless and vacant
I feel empty and unsure despite my growth and progress
Yet my heart feels so heavy
Despite my doubts, I am still full of emotions and passion
I feel my dreams have awakened
I am starting to understand my true desires and passions
Yet my mind, it feels so empty
Despite my emotional awakening, my mind is still filled with doubts and uncertainty
We are all lost.
We are all searching for direction and purpose, and it's okay to feel lost at times.
