About To Explode

Don't say you weren't warned about More Amor.  I'm here to give you the heads up.  With a user reviewed record of 86% on AP.net, the backing of former The Starting Line Guitar players Matt and Mike, experience from their previous bands The Higher and Youinseries, the current trends in music, and most importantly good songs, More Amor are the next big thing waiting to happen.  
           
         Their music has an intelligence about it that distinguishes it from the hordes of "emotronic" bands that dress like The Blood Brothers but sound like a farting computer.  Where many bands use excessive electronics as a substitute for songcraft, More Amor have solid melody and well written songs as the base of their music.  All of their songs could be recreated in a meaningful fashion with an acoustic guitar.

         More Amor sounds like a collaboration between The Matches and Her Space Holiday, but without the weirdness of the former and the melancholy of the latter.  If you want to do yourself a favor, start adding More Amor to you mix tapes now.
