Aoria is a four-piece outfit from Sweden that plays rock music with the electro-pop influence of The Cure. The songs of this three-song EP are strongly written and the intricate composition of the songs makes repeated listens essential, and yet enjoyable. "Assassination," is very reminiscent of Oceansize and A Perfect Circle, no doubt fans of both would enjoy this EP. Even though the songs that make up If I Slow Down Everything Will Disappear pass the five-minute mark, they do not bore nor do they seem repetitive at all. We highly suggest looking into this band, you will be pleasantly surprised - scenepointblank.com

02. The Host
Download

Aoria's third two-song EP. While the previous demo had more a new-wave meets rock aspect to it, these two songs tread different water. “A Slow Moving Storm” is just that - a slower moving track that seems to draw an awful lot from the post-rock world, but with dramatic vocals akin to OK Computer-era Thom Yorke. The second track here, “The Host,” is a little closer to the music of their previous release. The vocals still have that Yorke-esque quality, the music is a bit more rock oriented, but still drifts into dreamy post-rock sequences here and there. Overall, this is another nice venture, though we'd like to see what Aoria could do with a full and proper release. - scenepointblank.com
