After 3 listens The Color Spectrum is definitely my favourite album of the year so far.

Absolutely agreed, to the point where I'm not sure I want DT11 to beat it out.

Heretic · « **Reply #1017 on:** June 16, 2011, 08:29:20 PM »

Favorite songs:

Black: This Body
Red: I Couldn't Do it Alone
Orange: But There's Wolves?
Yellow: She's Always Singing
Green: The Canopy
Blue: The Collapse of the Great Tide Cliffs
Indigo: Mandala
Violet: Mr. Malum
White: Fall and Flee

I absolutely love the groove of I Couldn't Do it Alone. The Canopy is really upbeat and just puts a smile on my face, Mr. Malum is insane and I love the weird vibe it gives off. And I absolutely adore the end of The Collapse of the Great Tide Cliffs.

Almost exactly the same for me, except for White I choose Lost But Not All Gone, Deny it All for Red, and Lillian in Violet.

Another new observation: Blue EP isn't *bad* but it is rather unmemorable.

antigoon · « **Reply #1020 on:** June 16, 2011, 09:12:14 PM »

Blue is fantastic.

Blue is fantastic.

I don't mean it as a negative, but more like an absence of a positive. It goes by and before I know it, it's over, and I don't even remember it.

ClairvoyantCat · « **Reply #1031 on:** June 16, 2011, 10:29:57 PM »

I've really warmed up it, actually. It's certainly not the most memorable of the EPs nor the most "wow"-inducing one, but I've really grown to appreciate its subtlety. I think it'd be best enjoyed out at sea at night or something.

Heretic · « **Reply #1032 on:** June 16, 2011, 10:50:54 PM »

Agreed, the color "blue" really does suit the songs. Most of the colors, do, really.

You're probably right, and I can definitely see the possibility of its having the most effect in a certain proper atmosphere.

ariich · « **Reply #1034 on:** June 17, 2011, 12:42:05 AM »

I'm the same as SD with Blue. It's good, but not hugely memorable, and seems to have less of an identity than the others. The bluesy first track is great, but after that it's kinda nothingy.

ClairvoyantCat · « **Reply #1035 on:** June 17, 2011, 12:42:54 AM »

The Collapse of The Great Tide Cliffs is one of the best songs on the album

Zantera · « **Reply #1036 on:** June 17, 2011, 01:18:26 AM »

Blue really is great.
I love the oceanic/chilled out-vibe that it has, and it really sounds like an EP I would listen to if I would go out on a boat or something.
Or just great summer-music if I'm on a beach or something.

sonatafanica · « **Reply #1037 on:** June 17, 2011, 01:21:08 AM »

that's what yellow is for you dick

Zantera · « **Reply #1038 on:** June 17, 2011, 01:22:42 AM »

Well, yellow sounds rather... hard to describe, but I guess that would work well on a summer day as well.
Maybe more if I'm spending the summer day outside on the grass, meanwhile Blue really needs some sort of water-source.

Yup, yellow is more picnics and hotdogs and baseball games. Blue is the beach one. Sonata got it wrong as usual.

Green would probably be smoking grass. =D

Anyhow, Blue is much better then people give it credit for.
Just listening through the box for the 5th time, and every song on Blue is really good.

Super Dude · « **Reply #1043 on:** June 17, 2011, 05:25:01 AM »

I would say in general that Yellow, Green, and Blue are all summer EPs. All of them are either chilled out or bright and sunny in some way, so any one will do.

Quadrochosis · « **Reply #1044 on:** June 17, 2011, 06:17:21 AM »

So I just listened to Blue with Rainymood playing in the background and it was one of the most glorious things I've ever heard.

Super Dude · « **Reply #1045 on:** June 17, 2011, 06:18:46 AM »

Rainymood?

Edit: Whoooa....

ariich · « **Reply #1046 on:** June 17, 2011, 06:19:29 AM »

Yellow is playing games on the beach.

Green is sitting outside a country pub enjoying a refreshing pint.

Blue is more melancholy and reminds me of chilling out on a warm evening.

So yeah all three are quite summery.

ariich · « **Reply #1047 on:** June 17, 2011, 06:25:05 AM »

Ooh scrap that, definitely more rainy evening than warm one! Finally that EP's identity makes sense to me!

Super Dude · « **Reply #1048 on:** June 17, 2011, 06:37:27 AM »

I'm actually about to try the latter two songs with this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjciQMz_irU

ariich · « **Reply #1049 on:** June 17, 2011, 01:23:02 PM »

So, I think I can have a go at favourite songs now, although it's definitely subject to change:

Black: Filth and Squalor.
Red: I Couldn't Do It Alone
Orange: A Sea of Solid Earth
Yellow: Misplaced Devotion
Green: Crow and Cackle
Blue: The Collapse of the Great Tide Cliffs (this one just hit me today)
Indigo: Mandala
Violet: OH GOD I CAN'T DECIDE BETWEEN MR. MALUM AND LILLIAN.
White: Fall and Flee
