"I've had the fortunate opportunity to not only see More Than Heroes evolve from their original formation, but tour and become friends with them as well. Musically they lie in the same vein as Go It Alone, Another Breath, and Sinking Ships; but what sets these guys apart is that hardcore still matters to them. They display a passion and vigor unseen in most modern hardcore acts - whether it be between your ears or in front of you eyes. While being genuine has taken a back seat to popularity for most bands, More Than Heroes carves out their own niche with down-to-earth, honest, and solid songwriting.
Head North, Turn Left presents the band in the truest light possible. Melodic and emotionally heavy; every song feels fresh and apart from the rest with catchy guitar leads, subtle use of gang and guest vocals, and jazzy, solid drumming. More often than not, I find myself caught off guard or choked up by songs like Ralphie Parker, Susan, and Head North, Turn Left, even though they've been in constant rotation since mid-October.
More Than Heroes deserves so much more attention than they get. Constantly evolving and progressing; there just aren't enough good things I can say about this band. They have the work ethic to make things happen, and an honesty to admire.
Expect big things from these guys."
