Soon arrived Francesco and Simone (guitarists) and MMIV started officially their funny trip in December 2010 with a particular ingredient: a female screamer.
2011 started with the first recorded tracks produced at OneWay Recording Studio by Fabrizio Paneb
arco (Melody Fall) who sang a part in the first MMIV song out ever: In Vino Veritas.
They immediately and unexpectedly had a lot of followers, probably attracted by Sara's fury (and not just that) , and they played a lot of gigs in Italy during 2011.
Summer 2011 arrived and MMIV went to Hungary at Rampage Fest to play with their friends Claps for Caroline; in October they played in their beloved Rome with Texas In July and Scared By Beauty, thanks to their Booking Agency Get Real Family.
In December 2011 MMIV presented their first Offical video called Marshall's War (with Romeo from 1000Degrees on drums), track recorded by their friend Tommaso Antico and mastered by Alessandro Vanara.
Here came the time to think about the future and imagine the first album, so MMIV decided to stop gigs to focus all their energy on creating a full-lenght album.
Unfortunately some of them had different ambitons, so MMIV had to say goodbye to Stefano and Francesco; they will be always in their memories as friends.
After 6 months of hard and meticulous work, MMIV recorded their first album at Fusix Studio and found their peculiar stronger sound and the ultimate line-up with the new members Gabriele Cara on drums (ex School Disaster) and Riccardo Caccialanza as guitarist.
The new sound is characterized by a mix of melodic metal-core and post-hardcore; MMIV's major influences are: Parkway Drive, Caliban and Architects.
In June 2012 the first single of the album came out (Tortuga), with its official video on Blank TV directed by Andrea Larosa and in September MMIV released the lyric video of a new track, Anchors Like Chains, created by Tommaso Antonini.
The debut album "Hey cap, we've got a situation", Recorded, Mixed and Mastered by their Producer Andrea Fusini (Ms White - Rise Records US, Upon this Dawning – Fearless Records US, Melody Fall – Universal IT, Notimefor and Last Day Before Holiday – Radtone Records JAP) is out from 23rd October 2012 (also on-line store and iTunes) and it contains 8 tracks including an important featuring of Frez from If I Die Today (in the 3rd song Balck Waves Vs Red Sky) and other guest and backing vocals by Alex Loan and Giovanni Chiricosta, from My Aim To Farewell. Album artwork was created by Alberto Becherini and all songs were written by the band itself.
MMIV now have a main Management/Booking/Digital Distribution (Myo Agency) and are part of Get Real Family, but they don't have a final label yet.
MMIV line-up has a new change: the longtime friend Linje from 1000 Degrees is actually the new guitarist, but Simone will be forever and ever part of this project and of their lives. Finally the band is formed by 5 real good friends who have the same dreams and love music, fun, parties and wants to bring their message and passion (Music is union, not envy and competition!!) to every stages all around the world. They have great already began performing their new album and are planning a lot of gigs in Italy and an upcoming European tour.
Mayday
Marry Me In Vegas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm by your side, My captain
Will you carry me through your life?
My hero, My hero
Mayday, two thousands of lives
You're leaving in despair
At the mercy of jackals' power.
Will you carry me on your shoulders?
The time that I remember
You were bold and stubborn, selfless every moment
When you chose your joy for cash
Mayday, two thousands of lives
You're leaving in despair
At the mercy of jackals power
Mayday Mayday
How can you turn your courage into this mistake?
This is the last mayday
Think of your passengers, Don't leave your passengers
This is last mayday
Since you were only a child
You dreamed of becoming a captain
You forgot responsibilities
Concentrated on your jacket's stars
Will you carry me on your shoulders?
Mayday, two thousands of lives
You're leaving in despair
At the mercy of jackal's power
Mayday Mayday
How can you turn your courage into this mistake?
This is the last mayday
Think of your passengers, Don't leave your passengers
This is last mayday
This is last mayday
The song Mayday by Marry Me In Vegas is a powerful and emotive plea for someone to carry the singer on their shoulders and be their hero as they face a crisis. The repeated chorus of 'Mayday' is a distress signal used by pilots and sailors, underscoring the sense of danger and urgency in the song. The lyrics also evoke a sense of helplessness and despair, as the singer describes how two thousand lives are at stake and how they feel at the mercy of the 'jackals' power'. The song seems to be calling on someone to take responsibility and act with courage and selflessness to save the day.
The lyrics also paint a portrait of someone who has lost their way and forgotten their responsibilities. The lines 'You forgot responsibilities, Concentrated on your jacket's stars' suggest that the captain has become too focused on his own status and prestige, and has lost sight of his duty to the passengers he is responsible for. The singer pleads for him to think of his passengers and not to abandon them in their hour of need.
