Sykamore were originally named Access Denied, playing pop punk styled rock songs. The change in name reflected a change in the bands sound towards more of an alternative rock edge, whilst keeping the poppy hooks and punk ethos. Sound has been likened to Paramore but with a distinct British vibe.
The band split in mid-2008 due to pressures from full time work and other commitments with the members at university.

You're searchin' through the static
For a good one
When we miss our reservations and I'am complaining
You're calling in takeout
And we take it out on the lawn
You turn it around
When I'm running on fumes
I'll just hold on to you
When I'm empty you're my gasoline
When it's going up in smoke
And my heart's nearly broke
You're my fix, you're my nicotine
When good turns to bad
You're bringing me back
You're my Make It All Better Half
When I'm sick of working late and had the worst day
You're standing in the doorway
With a bottle of red wine
When I'm higher than high maintenance, keep you waiting
And test your patience
You've got nothing but time
And I don't know how
You turn it around
When I'm running on fumes
I'll just hold on to you
When I'm empty you're my gasoline
When it's going up in smoke
And my heart's nearly broke
You're my fix, you're my nicotine
When good turns to bad
You're bringing me back
You're my Make It All Better Half
And I don't know how
You turn it around
When I'm running on fumes
I'll just hold on to you
When I'm empty you're my gasoline
When it's going up in smoke
And my heart's nearly broke
You're my fix, you're my nicotine
When good turns to bad
You're bringing me back
You're my Make It All Better Half
You're my Make It All Better Half

The first verse exemplifies this idea by describing a scenario in which the singer is stuck in traffic while their partner is searching for good music on the radio, ultimately creating a more enjoyable experience for their partner. In the second verse, the singer complains about failed dinner reservations, but their partner instead provides takeout and a calming presence in their backyard. The chorus is a declaration of gratitude, describing how the partner is the supporter's fuel and fix when everything else goes wrong.
Overall, the song is a heartfelt message of appreciation for a person who provides unwavering support, even during trying times. It speaks to the importance of finding a partner who will lift you up when you're down and make everything better. The repeated refrain of "you're my Make It All Better Half" emphasizes the deep emotional connection between the two partners and their reliance on each other.
