It
all started with a tweet: “Our bassist has
agreed to take everyone out for dinner and a movie to who help try
and reach 7000 followers!“
I've been following the five guys from Niagara Falls, Ontario for a while but this tweet caught my attention. Obviously (and unfortunately) it was a joke but they got their 7000 followers, I had something to laugh at and a new band to write about.
I've Got Gloria are: Vocalist Matthew Dell, bassist and soon broke because of all the dinner invitations Jeremy Morocco, drummer Nicholas Plati and the guitarists Antonio Cirillo and Jason Golden. They started making music together in 2007 and released their EP Rebuilt on August 27th 2012.

The
first song on the record, Ange
Avenue,
created a little film in my mind while listening. Two teenagers are
driving in a car, he tries to get closer to her, she rejects him and
leaves. Later I find out that they were in a relationship which she
ended and now he tries to get her back while standing
alone at the corner of his heart.
I see him walking around at night with all the memories on his mind
but before I know how the film ended, I'm back to reality.
The next song totally contrasts with the first one: Better Now reminds me of summer, of long nights, of being happy. It's about a boy and a girl who leave together to a better place, he seems to love her a lot because he says he'd die for her. This is one of the songs I'd marry a guy for if he wrote it for me.
Oh the joy – I'm taken back to school again, to science class this time. Chemicals is about the end of a relationship, the writer's attraction for his partner will die soon. If I was better in chemistry I could probably say more about the metaphors but thanks to the talent of the whole band you don't have to understand the lyrics in order to get the message of the song.
Our Time basically is a song about the band, about how hard they work to fulfill their dreams and how they'll manage to stand out in the crowd. I can definitely picture these guys playing in front of a huge crowd because they manage to deliver emotions through their songs and if music isn't connected to emotions then I don't know what's the purpose of it.
The last song on the record, Rebuilt, is about love again, especially about the beginning when you're so in love that it feels like you're high.

So,
you should go and check out I've Got Gloria for two reasons: First,
they take you on a rollercoaster of feelings while you listen to
their songs and secondly they are really talented musicians who
deserve some more recognition.
