Since catching their set at In the City a few moons ago DiS has gone on about these harmony-ridden York rock kids named after a Boards of Canada's track Colour of Fire.
On July 26th Colour Of Fire preview their Steve Osborne (U2, Suede, New Order) debut LP with an EP entitled 'The Exile'. The CD features 5 tracks: 1) The Exile, 2) The Company Won't Colour Me, 3) Ethereal, 4) Jennifer, 5) Fuck Work, Lets Party. The 7" Vinyl features 1) The Exile and 2) Fuck Work, Lets Party.
'Pearl Necklace' is the spunksome title for their debut LP. Folks in Europe can get it early (on PIAS) on 19th July and us pesky kids in the UK have to wait until August 9th 2004 to get it (released on Riverman Music).
And to promote the record, they're on a whirlwind tour of Europe with a few dates in the UK to whet our thighs...
