On their new EP Flyying Colours take their sound a step further, refining their songwriting into a near perfect collision of pop melodies and shoegaze textures. The expected touchstones of Ride, MBV and Chapterhouse are all there but they’re filtered through a gauze that is equal parts Smashing Pumpkins and dream pop. The songs are tight and the rhythm section drives the songs along with real verve and propulsion which allows the guitars and vocals of Brodie J Brümmer and Gemma O’Connor to create some wonderful sonic and melodic interplay. Running Late in particular is the perfect distraction from daily life.
