| "The last few years have seen an unusual number of bands playing goth-inspired, melodic, wispy metal, more often than not fronted by gorgeous women who look more like they should be on Fashion Television than fronting a band. More.ca is a good example of this - they've got the keyboards, the romantic sounds, the eerily clean guitars, the female voice, the dominating Sisters of Mercy sound. Yet somehow, they ended up on a metal label. Either way, metal yahoos and goth dweebs cannot deny that 'The Gift' is a great song." |

| "Just in case you were beginning to get the idea that Utopian Vision is just an "extreme" (we used to call it death metal) label, here's More.ca (you know, like More-Canada). Something like a more prog Sisters of Mercy (the early years). The goth guitar and singing styles are omnipresent but the technical precision of the delivery accentuates the spookiness of the whole. Just enough echo on the guitars to lend that spooky air to things, but in all, More.ca doesn't take to excess. These songs are immaculately crafted, and the playing matches. Even with all that care, the emotional impact is still solid. Just enough here to make me crave more. More.ca sure has a cool way of piecing together a song or few. More is certainly wanted from this corner." |

| "Ooh, after I suffered the 60 psychotic minutes of the new GORGUTS CD some minutes ago, their countrymates from More.ca sounded to me like a calming, relaxing elixir. Their gentle and melodic music is a great opportunity for you to relax and rest from the intense and stressful way of life! It is obligatory bands like this one to exist, the music of which makes you close your eyes, caresses your ears and stimulates you to try and transform your musical fantasies into motley pictures of your own imagination and dreams! The gentle female vocal of Ilana Demers (who also stands behind the piano) can make you experience the most tender feelings, which you haven't even suspected to exist. The clear male vocals of Miguel Calavaro add a slight Dark Wave element to More.ca's music. This is not metal, but it's value!" |
