MUSIC: Colour Revolt



A while back I posted about some of my favorites EP's at that particular point in time. One such EP was by Colour Revolt and it so happens that they've got a new full-length out on Fat Possum titled Plunder, Beg, and Curse. The band has recovered from some unfortunate thievery which resulted in them losing their van, gear, and loads of other stuff to record an incredibly strong album. The new songs vier slightly away from the painstaking despair-filled tone evident in their EP, which isn't exactly a bad thing. Although this and the urgency is dialed down a notch, the hints of optimism and growth fit well amongst a marching sonic backdrop. Check out a few new tracks.

::: Colour Revolt - A Siren
::: Colour Revolt - Ageless Everytime
::: Colour Revolt - Naked and Red
