Rising from the gutters of Chalmette, LA comes cherubic, yet sagacious group Miracle at St. Anna (MASA).

Starting from a high school talent show to performing main stage at Voodoo Fest, MASA has inevitably blossomed into a six-piece metalcore project with intentions of raging through interminable tours and seeing new faces on the daily.

With such vigorous stage performances, MASA has managed to manifest their own musical persona across most of the central-south region of the US.

In June 2010 they began to record their album with Drew Fulk at Think Sound Studios in Greensboro, NC. It was then that they were picked up by Tragic Hero Records and asked to finish the album, which is to be released in 2011.

Through subliminal diction, impulsive riffs, and delectable melodies, MASA plans on abducting the stage and making it more than your money's worth.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics are in Japanese and can be translated as follows:

"Wet nose, clever but undisciplined,
A police dog is walking.
He wore his own
Uniform,
But he has no trace.
Where to take him?
He has nothing to fear.

To me, Murai, give me a dog
for the day.
Put legs on me,
To me, Murai, give me legs
All my friends and everything
Will be alright."

The song "Opening" from the film "Miracle at St. Anna's" is a haunting and introspective piece that sets the tone for the movie. The lyrics are a reflection of the main character's state of mind, as he requests a dog and legs to help him on his journey. The symbolism of the police dog in the song represents the singer's desire for discipline and focus, as he navigates through the chaos and uncertainty of war.

The song is a beautiful portrayal of the human spirit and the strength that comes from friendship and community. It speaks to the theme of brotherhood and the importance of standing together in times of adversity. The longing for legs in the song is also symbolic of the character's desire for freedom and mobility, as he is confined to a wheelchair.
