It’s kind of crazy to think about the things that develop after someone or something has ceased to exist. Death and the general idea of things coming to an end has a strange way of making those still living feel compelled to get their shit together. Sometimes this means quitting your dead end job, while other times it means finally proposing to the girl of your dreams. For the members of The Color And Sound, Boston’s latest contribution to the world of alternative pop, it took the end of two popular regional acts for the group to find their way together. Without their previous efforts falling apart, the world may never know their curious take on pop rock, and it would almost certainly never have seen the release of the group’s thrilling Peace Of Mind EP.
Fortunately for us, those bands we never mentioned by name did come to an end and we do live in a world where The Color And Sound are able to share their music with the rest of us. Peace Of Mind finds the group channeling a number of classic and contemporary influences to craft a unique sound that falls somewhere between the likes of Say Anything, Fun., and Hostage Calm. It’s not punk enough for punk, nor is it pop enough for pop, but there are hooks and melodies good enough to keep you musically satisfied for weeks, if not months on end. The album is not out until September 16, but today we have the great honor of sharing a full stream of the record with all of you. Click below to discover your new obsession:
As we mentioned above, Peace Of Mind is set for release on September 16. You can order the album on vinyl through Black Numbers‘ webstore. Comment below and let us know your thoughts on the record.
