Karate Mountain's second full-length album of storytelling instrumental indie-rock. It begins with an unashamedly simple melody, waltzes and stumbles its way through beautiful harmonies in urgent rhythm, and ends in an almost ceremonial cacophony. It’s our hope that by the end of "More Than Ever Before", the listener can wholly sympathize with the desperation and joy contained in the fury, even if the emotion is unfamiliar, inaccessible, or long-forgotten.
