Inspired by post-punk fervor, the spiky pop of C86 and early Flying Nun / Creation label output, San Francisco's Brilliant Colors stake out their own spot in the indie music landscape. They jangle, they sigh, they shuffle, and together they sound as if the Pastels were from California.
Not really produced and not really polished in anyway, Brilliant Colors manage to be, err, brilliant thanks to their shambolic pop sensibility. Sounding like they may just shatter into a million pieces and only too happy to do so, Brilliant Colors know the joys of fragile pop songs.
Their new album, Again and Again is filled with such delights and sees them moving further into the classic C86 thing. The album is released on July 19th on Slumberland and the band will head out on the road in June to pre-promote.
