Olausson, Sparding, and Görsch had previously been members of Girlfrendo. The trio promptly regrouped after that band's demise and added Lindwall, who had recorded in a side project with Olausson and Sparding called Cat Skills. They finally added the missing piece with saxophone player Fredrik Eriksson.

While earning many rave reviews from the blogging community for their blend of art punk and indie rock, the band released several singles, one of which made single of the week in NME. The singles were collected on the debut LP Nine Times That Same Song, released by New York-based What's Your Rupture? in late 2005. After much touring through 2006 and 2007, Eriksson left the band and Love Is All continued on as a quartet. A Hundred Things Keep Me Up at Night and the remix album Love Is All Mixed Up arrived in 2008, along with Eriksson's replacement Åke Strömer (saxophone, keyboards). They are currently signed to the New York-based indie label What's Your Rupture?.

Bigger Bolder
Love Is All Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Faster, louder, my love for you
Bigger, bolder, my love for you
There's no sense for you to make this ******
I simply hate every minute that we're apart

Taller, stronger, my love for you
Whiter, brighter, my love for you
There's no point for you to sound smart

I simply hate every minute that we're apart

Hotter, wetter
Larger, longer

No no no there's no sense for you to make this *****
I simply hate every minute that we're apart

The lyrics to Love is All's song "Bigger Bolder" seem to be expressing an intense desire for the subject of the song. The singer's love for them is described as "faster, louder, bigger, bolder," and "taller, stronger, whiter, brighter." The repetition of "there's no sense for you to make this ****" and "I simply hate every minute that we're apart" suggests that perhaps the subject is playing hard to get or there are obstacles in the way of their relationship. The lines "hotter, wetter, larger, longer" could be interpreted as sexual desire, although it's left up to the listener's interpretation.

Overall, the song seems to be an expression of desire and frustration, with the singer wishing to be closer to their object of affection. The use of intense adjectives and repetition helps to convey the depth of feeling involved.
