Indie Pick: Colorsound

One time not so far in the past I got a friend request on Facebook for a band who called themselves Colorsound. I'm usually not so open to random friend requests, but sometimes I make exceptions. I dug a little deeper and found out who they were and I realized rather quickly that they were a very talented power pop/punk band hailing from Montreal. (Has anybody else noticed the steady stream of talent coming from the province of Quebec lately!?!)

I accepted their friend request, because I'm nice like that, and I love to support the lovely Canadian bands. After checking out their wonderfully designed Myspace page where they have their music showcased for all to hear, I definitely encourage you to do the same!

So for their sound...My first impression when I listened to their music was that they were catchy, upbeat and fun to listen too. And now, after a couple of weeks of listening constantly, my opinion hasn't changed. I've always found myself drawn to this genre of music and I was rather excited when I heard them because they're like candy for my ears!! I couldn't listen to them enough! Unfortunately due to my lack of funds right now, I am unable to support them by purchasing their tunes (either on itunes or otherwise), I encourage all you readers to go out and buy their EP!

They were most recently heard in the background of a scene during "The Hills", which is really exciting for the band to be getting international coverage!! Let's hope there's more experiences for these guys in the future!

If you like the sound of The New Cities (fellow Montrealers), The Mission District, or even Faber Drive, I can pretty much guarantee that you'll enjoy their sound! Check them out and support them by adding them to Myspace and/or Facebook and support their music!
