Jackson Pollock listening to Black Sabbath.

So, to sort-of continue with yesterdays post I will talk about another group that has a similar name but totally different sound....

Colour Revolt hails from the state that every kindergartener loves to spell: Mississippi. They have a very driving intense, rock sound but that does not quite do it justice. There is almost a post-blues vibe with sparse piano thrown in and the occasional harmonica courtesy of lead-singer Jesse Copenbarger. They supported Brand New for several weeks last year and are soon to hit the road with them again in about two weeks with friends Anathallo. About half of these shows are already sold out, but they are playing this years Lollapalooza; and they are definately worth the effort to catch live.

Be sure to pick up their CD! About a month ago their van and all their gear was stolen and they are still in the recovery process! Read more about that here.
