releasenotes
From the opening chords of the frenetic and furious "It's Tomorrow," the
self-titled debut by Overwhelming Colorfast bears an obvious Hⁿsker Dⁿ
influence, with Bob Reed's voice at times resembling Bob Mould's. Like Hⁿsker
Dⁿ, this quartet churns out catchy tunes powered by abrasive guitars and
impassioned vocals. Influences aside, Overwhelming Colorfast proves quite
adept at draping its lively melodies with layers of fuzzy guitar on tracks
like "Totally Gorgeous Foreign Chick," "My Trip," and "Arrows." The band also
delivers a solid cover of the Beatles' classic "She Said, She Said," injecting
the song with a little more muscle than the original version. The album's
emphasis on a thick guitar sound could be attributed to the fact that Butch
Vig produced the record, shortly before presiding over sessions for the
Smashing Pumpkins' similarly crunch-heavy Siamese Dream. Though certainly not
a groundbreaking album, Overwhelming Colorfast will easily satisfy fans of
brisk, post-punk rock & roll.
