Bio:
More are a British heavy metal band who were part of the new wave of British heavy metal scene in the early 1980s.They recorded two albums and two singles, and opened the German 1981 Rock Festival Golden Summer Night at Stuttgart and Darmstadt in August 1981, as well as the Monsters of Rock festival at Donington Park one week later.Initially the band was fronted by vocalist Paul Mario Day, who had sung in an early incarnation of Iron Maiden.By the time of their second album, Frank Darch and Laurie Mansworth had left, the latter going on to form the band Airrace.Andy John Burton was recruited as the new drummer and the band became a four-piece. Bassist Brian Day also left during the recording of the second album, to be replaced by Barry 'Baz' Nicholls.Following Paul Mario Day's subsequent departure from the band, the line-up of Cox, Nicholls, Burton and vocalist Mick Stratton released a 7" single called "Trickster" in 1982, before splitting up.Kenny Cox revived More briefly in 1985, with vocalist Ron Jackson, guitarist Mel Jones, bassist Baz Nicholls, and Paul George on drums. Following that, Kenny Cox moved on to the band Mammoth with ex-Gillan and Sun Red Sun bassist John McCoy and ex-Samson vocalist Nicky Moore.A further attempt to reform the band occurred in the spring of 1998, with Mike Freeland featuring on vocals. A track called "My Obsession" was recorded by this incarnation of the band, but they split up shortly afterwards in the year 2000.In 2011, Andy John Burton recruited Baz Nicholls (bass; joined More in 1982), Mike Freeland (vocals; part of More's 1999 line-up), Paul Stickles (guitar; also with the band Dangerous Breed) and special guest Chris Tsangarides to form a More tribute band called Exmore. They performed live at the Headbangers Open Air Festival in July 2011, with a Warm up show at the Astor Theatre in Deal, Kent before the festival (in July ) plus an after festival club show on the Sunday.It was this small club gig and the amazing reaction from the enthusiastic audience which led to the band wanting to carry on flying the More colours.Exmore played a co-headlining show with Marseille at the Sir Robert Peel venue in Kingston upon Thames, Surrey on 15 October 2011.The following year, the band changed their name to More 2012 and scheduled further shows, including: 26 May at the Railway venue in Bolton, 23 November at the Red Lion pub in Gravesend, Kent, and 1 December at the Hard Rock Hell VI festival, with Steve Rix on drums.An appearance at the 'Metalwave UK' festival in Purfleet, Essex, alongside Praying Mantis, Dennis Stratton, Cloven Hoof, Chariot and Deep Machine, took place on 5 October 2013,followed by a performance at the 'Heavy Metal Maniacs' festival in Amstelveen on 19 October 2013.In May 2014, Dave John Ross replaced Paul Stickles on guitar. Further concert appearances were then scheduled for the 'Bang Your Head!!!' festival in Balingen on 12 July 2014,[9] and the Hard Rock Hell VII festival in Pwllheli on 15 November 2014.In 2015, the band played at Legends of Rock Festival in Great Yarmouth and Hard Rock Hell VIII festival in Pwllheli. In November and December 2016, the band undertook a short European tour as special guests to German band Bonfire, taking in shows in Belgium, Germany and Holland.
Album:
Rock Candy Records remastered reissue of British rockers MORE debut album ”Warhead”, including as bonus track a hard to find B-side.Based in London, while pretty much hard rockin’ in style MORE’s roots actually lay in the very same avenues and alleyways frequented by Iron Maiden.Indeed, vocalist Paul Mario Day had been – alongside Steve Harris – a member of a pre Iron Maiden outfit. Both went their separate ways, of course, with Day reappearing as front man for MORE, a ball-busting rough and tumble five piece with a volatile two guitar line-up laying waste to a bunch of catchy hooks.Signed to Atlantic Records, Warhead was originally issued in 1981 and produced by none other than Henry ‘H-Bomb’ Weck, leader of seventies cult US hard rock combo Brownsville Station (‘Smokin’ In The Boys Room’), the album features a fine selection of tracks primarily designed to bludgeon the listener into boot-licking compliance. Fortunately it’s a game they won hands down.Definitely large traces of classic metal to be found on the title track, fast crunchy riffage and the nuclear war lyrics to boot, one of the strongest cuts along with the excellently done ‘Fire’, another heavy cut which kicks total ass via a simple yet catchy riffage intertwined with excellent vocal catchiness definitely likely to draw comparisons to Samson.Then there’s a cool mixture of driving riffs and great poppy melodies on ‘We are the Band’, sporting some Thin Lizzy-ish vibes.A sorely underrated band with a sound derived just as much from bluesy hard rock as the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, More had polish and basic song structures that made the group much more accessible than many of its counterparts.Simply put, the band just flat-out rocks, taking tight grooves and crunchy power chord riffs and placing them all over guitarist/lead singer Kenny Cox’s blues-infused guitar shredding, which obviously owes considerable debt to Jimmy Page.It’s a peculiarly strong debut from an unrepeatable era.
