>John Earls, Planet of Sound, Channel 4:
'Having wowed us a year ago with the funk of their 1st demo, they return with a whole new spectrum.
Some might call it post-coldplay, but big old anthems like this will never go out of fashion. Especially when unlike their peers, its got a supple rhythm section - check out the Doves-y drums.
Not just better than a Morning Runner, superior to most signed acts out there'
The-Mag, Southampton:
The Colours have been causing quite a stir in the press recently … Whenever I see a band for the first time, there's a little hope somewhere inside that I will be blown away and fall in love with their sound, attitude, look, everything. On this night I had that blissful experience.
If this band aren't on the national consciousness by the end of the year then I'll find an old hat and eat it.

Hey Guys, you really blew them all away at the Vines gig thats for sure. Wow what a great sound for a three peice. Really enjoyed it and hope to catch more sometime soon. Keep on keeping on dudes :) T.W
But then I'd be known as the girl with the same jacket as one of the guys in the band .. that could be considered weird .. unless I was your sidekick .. That would be cool :) xx
The weather was a downer but it won't bring a downer on the music :) I really also wanted your sequin jacket one of you guyses was wearing it was immensely cool :) I didn't see you around after you played did you camp?? x
I dont know if you can remember me but i met you guys in the box in Glasgow. It was a mega gig chaps, just thought id pop by and see if you plan to be playing up here again some time soon.
