More loose ends from the year in music: here’s another EP I meant to write about but briefly lost in the shuffle. More! is the aptly titled follow-up to Dead Billionaires’ excellent 2023 Disaster Preparedness Coloring Book, and it comes packed with four loud, melodic punches.

It opens with Hopes & Dreams, a suspenseful indie-rock burner capped by an absolutely massive sing-along chorus—100% guaranteed to blow the roof off any basement with everyone shouting it back. Then comes the killer punk-rock blast Slowly Shifting Change, followed by the band’s own theme song that carries a hint of power-ballad drama without losing its grit. The finale is another sharp punk track in Busted Sideview Mirror and keeps the momentum rolling.

This Richmond (Virginia) trio continues to churn out loud, earnest, hook-heavy tunes, and we’d better keep pace, because they’re not slowing down.

EP out now on Possum Lick Farms Records.
