Profile
“Third-wave post-Libertine-ers” is how a critic might put it. All you need to know is that Colour It In, these young Brits debut album, is deliriously replayable summer guitar pop. Over spring-coiled guitar riffs, front man Orlando Weeks hems and haws about girl troubles in his full-mouthed South London burr. The mantra-chorus of “Happy Faces”—“So run, boy, run!”—is the joyful apex. Part of the 2007 CMJ Music Marathon.
