Editorial Reviews

Enhanced CD pressing of the 2008 debut album from this North London five piece, who are all in their final year of school. The Colourful Life is packed full of whimsical tales of love and youth, Daniel Blumberg's vocals are brought to life by scattering jangly guitars and atmospheric synths. The band recorded the album with producer Bernard Butler at West Heath Studios. Features 10 tracks including the enhanced video for 'The Race'. XL. --This text refers to an alternate Audio CD edition.

The songs in the album sound unique. They bear some resemblance to The Kooks (the lead singer even looks like Luke Pritchard). The majority of the songs are very catchy and easy to listen to. My favorite was Amylase.

To start off, this album is neither "Cajun" nor "Dance" music, just so you know. More Indie or Alternative I would say. Decent enough though. Nothing special though. "Time Falls" is kind of o.k. "Amylase" is interesting sounding enough. Their sound to me is like a combination of late 60's British rock and New Wave. 'nuff said.
