AmOr SeCo
Electro / Alternative

AmOr SeCo is a Mexican Electro / Alternative group. The duo was officially formed in 2007 by Erwin dFlores (Programming, lyrics & vocals) and Junko Okabe (vocals).

Erwin was born in Mexico City. He created a couple of bands in his teens, and started a Gothic Style band "Agnus dei". The band played in several states in Mexico, including Mexico City. The band was well known among the Gothc scene. Later, his band broke up. Erwin changed his life style to travel and study in Europe, living in France, Austria, Dominican Republic. In Dominican Republic, he met Junko Okabe. He kept traveling and playing his music. In the Spring 2006, he arrived in Canada. He decided to create his band "Amor seco" based on his Gothic idea with the influences from French and Mexican music. He invited Junko Okabe to his band "Amor Seco" as a singer.

Their lyrics are mostly English although some songs are in Spanish and French. The Spanish word amor seco means "Dry Love".

Amor seco is also quite popular in herbal medicine throughout South and Central America. In Peruvian herbal medicine today, a leaf tea is used as a blood cleanser; to detoxify the body from environmental toxins and chemicals; as a urinary tract cleanser; and to treat ovarian and uterine problems such as inflammation and irritation, vaginal discharges, and hemorrhages. In Belize (where the plant is called "strong back"), the entire plant is soaked in rum for 24 hours, and then 1/4 cup is taken three times daily for seven to ten days for backaches. Alternatively, an entire plant is boiled in 3 cups of water for 10 minutes, and 1 cup of warm tea is taken before meals for three to five days for relief of backache, muscle pains, kidney ailments, and impotence. In Brazilian herbal medicine, the dried leaves are used for the treatment of asthma, vaginal discharge, body aches and pains, ovarian inflammation, excessive urination, excessive mucus, and diarrhea. In Ghana, a leaf decoction is a popular remedy for bronchial asthma, constipation, dysentery, and colic, and is also used to dress wounds.
