It’s amazing when a band like The Pains of Being Pure At Heart essentially resurrect a genre (twee) and bring it back into the limelight after it had so long rested on the like of Belle & Sebastian and Camera Obscura, and its not surprising that other twee ands trying to make it will no doubt get more attention. Brilliant Colors are one of these bands, and coincidentally are signed to the same label, Slumberland, as TPOBPAH. Brilliant Colors is a female trio that adheres more to the traditional twee sound of lo-fi, single guitar and soft female vocals. I honestly can say I feel like I am in the mid 90s when I listen to this band; which I dont have to tell you is a very enjoyable experience. “Motherland” comes from their debut Introducing which comes out November 3rd and can be ordered (at some point soon) through the Slumberland store.
