Mixing U2-esque reverb-heavy guitar with feisty pop punk vocals, Milton Keynes up-and-comers Ten Million Colours make a break for a bright, enticing world of opportunity with their new single Slow.
The track makes for a well-produced blend of influences that fits the band and their eagerness well - it doesn't ape the profusion of moody introspective indie types around at the moment and instead feels like a move towards a more enabled, open future.
With a video featuring masked ninjas and eerie-eyed people clothed all in white, as things progress outside to a harsh concrete landscape, it all goes a bit Clockwork Orange. Weird, but always tastefully so.
At both the song and the video's heart though is a definite drive to innovate, to prove themselves, and on that front, Ten Million Colours do an impressive, invigorated job of things.
Slow is available to download on iTunes now.
