With his third album Trace Adkins develops his sound beyond his previous work, while remaining careful to keep the arrangements simple, the singing true, and the quality of the material high. “More” and “Can I Want Your Love” flirt with pop and rock hooks, but Adkins’ understated, no-nonsense approach keeps them from becoming silly. In fact, More… goes to great lengths to reinforce its author’s cowboy credentials. “Working Man’s Wage” is a reminder that, regardless of any success Adkins achieves in Nashville, blue-collar blood still runs in his veins. “All Hat, No Cattle” is a George Strait-like slice of Western swing that calls out phony cowboys: “He's talkin' cowboy this and cowboy that / Well I'll bet one thing's for sure / The only stampede that he's ever seen / Is the clearance at the western store.” More… also contains some of Adkins’ best stories in the form of “Don’t Lie” and “The Night He Can’t Remember,” two cheating songs told from opposite perspectives. The former portrays a husband who has to beg his wife to come clean about her affair; the latter shows the lasting scar left by a one-night stand (“That night he can’t remember / The one that she just can’t forget”).
