Amor Vincit Omnia is the second full-length album by British progressive rock band Pure Reason Revolution.

The title of the album is Latin for Love Conquers All. It is also a reference to the painting Amor Vincit Omnia by the Italian baroque painter Caravaggio, completed circa 1601. The track title Victorious Cupid is also an alternate name of the same painting. Lead singer and song writer Jon Courtney, however, claims that the album title was derived from his school motto, veritas vincit omnia (truth conquers all),.

The album introduces a more electronic sound than the first album. The band makes heavy use of synths, most noticeably on "Les Malheurs" and "Deus ex Machina". The album cover and artwork have been designed by band member Chloe Alper.

The lyric, "Did you feel loved? Did you ever burn Avalon?" is repeated on several tracks on the album including "Deus Ex Machina", "Disconnect" and "AVO".
