Colonies - Thirty Thousand

Year: 2009
Label: ????? it's indie, friends.

Ok so this band is so so amazing, I believe out of Seattle. They are just so perfect if your into straight up no fucking around indie rock. The drummers awesome, lots of crashing cymbals and stuff here. They really rock out and I love this album. Think along the lines of Japandroids here. OMG (ha ha) I love music and hate abbreviations. So here's some reviews about Colonies (taken from their myspace page)...

"Colonies is probably the best indie rock band that you haven’t heard of. Yet."
---Redefine Magazine

"...Colonies combines intelligence and ambience. Gentle keys and samples flavor heavy, bombastic percussion courtesy of Centoni, while Shumate's ethereal vocals float above the band's instrumentals. Crystal-clear guitar work cuts through the haunting, atmospheric quality of Colonies' songs, and the band somehow remains sonically captivating even in tense moments of quiet noise."
---The News Tribune

"...music that constantly recalls the moments after a summer storm. The rapid-fire cymbal action of drummer Adrian Centoni is a perfect counterbalance to the weary vocals coming from Travis Shumate. Their newest album, Sleep Patterns, is another chance to bolster your musical IQ."
---Rich and Blake Recommend

So there you go! Don't sleep on this one and for fucks sakes leave a comment, will ya? Take the time to come back and talk to me... I'm lonely.
