Dinosaur Jr, Brand New, Black Lips, Okkervil River, Menomena, Explosions in the Sky—the list of bands that Mississippians Colour Revolt have toured with reads like an all-star roster of indie rock. This spring, the band will add the Breeders to the list.
The guys brought their incandescent grunge rock to the Dell Lounge at SXSW and have already played a smattering of dates in anticipation of their debut full-length Plunder, Beg and Curse, which hit stores April 1. Clay Jones returned to produce the project, who also worked with Colour Revolt on its self-titled 2006 EP
Check out the first track from Plunder, Beg and Curse below.
