    Éire (/e:rə/; Irish: [ˈeːɾʲə]) is Irish for "Ireland", the name of an island and a sovereign state.

    Etymology

    The modern Irish Éire evolved from the Old Irish word Ériu, which was the name of a Gaelic goddess. Ériu is generally believed to have been the matron goddess of Ireland, a goddess of sovereignty, or simply a goddess of the land. The origin of Ériu has been traced to the Proto-Celtic reconstruction *Φīwerjon- (nominative singular Φīwerjū < Pre-Proto-Celtic -jō). This suggests a descent from the Proto-Indo-European reconstruction *piHwerjon-, likely related to the adjectival stem *piHwer- (cf. Sanskrit pīvan, pīvarī and pīvara meaning "fat, full, abounding"). This would suggest a meaning of "abundant land".

    This Proto-Celtic form became Īweriū or Īveriū in Proto-Goidelic. It is highly likely that explorers borrowed and modified this term. During his exploration of northwest Europe (circa 320 BC), Pytheas of Massilia called the island Ierne (written Ἰέρνη). In his book Geographia (circa 150 AD), Claudius Ptolemaeus called the island Iouernia (written Ἰουερνία). Based on these historical accounts, the Roman Empire called the island Hibernia.

    Ire (album)

    Ire is the fifth studio album by Australian metalcore band Parkway Drive. The album was released on 25 September 2015, through Resist Records and Epitaph Records, and was streamed online on 20 September. It has been described (by both the band and reviewers) as changing the band's established metalcore style in favour of new heavy metal influences.

    Promotion and release

    Ire was announced on 8 June 2015, when the first song from the album, "Vice Grip", was released, accompanied by a music video. On 24 August, Parkway Drive released a second song, "Crushed", also accompanied by a video. On 14 September, the band released a third song, "The Sound of Violence". On 20 September, the album was streamed online in its entirety.

    Reception, musical style and themes

    Ire marks a change from the style established on the band's previous records. In an interview with Music Feeds, frontman Winston McCall stated: "...in the past ... [when] we took the influence we had and then we put it into the context of what the Parkway Drive formula was, then that influence got mixed or buried or lost amongst the other stuff. This time around when any influence or unorthodox idea came about we simply ran with it in its whole form and tried to form a concept around that, rather than try to squash it into the pre-existing formula. That became basically the conceptual approach for making this entire record. ... When you’re playing the same style of riff, the same drumming, the same vocals and same breakdowns for ten years, what point is there in people listening to your new record or even recording one if it sounds the exact same as the last one?"

    Ire

    by: Oddland

    Far, where dawn never ends
    Away, are echoes the old lady sings
    Crying that years
    Years I've been trapped in this cave
    Inside, a candle consumed by its flame
    And all of the repenting words aside
    I desire to hurt you
    Desert the world you belong to
    In the forest where I lay
    My hungry heart
    My mellow mind
    All my thoughts
    They're weak in kind
    They're dreams
    Red is the mountain of mice
    Rotten on the hour of demise
    The pile, it resembles a crown
    And every roaring squel
    Is shame in disguise
    Coming clear
    And all that you wished for
    Is becoming right now
    Still it stays, in troubling ways
    The ire
    Far, where dawn never ends
    Away, the old lady sings
    For years I've been trapped in this cave
