2 stars The colour of wisdom (well, hard to prove if it's in music), or transformation, few other describing words, but none of them plausible for my liking. Well, let's see, nobility would be the best one. Is this music noble ? It's ethereal enough, distant somehow, but in general it's more distant, even electronic at times (Progress sins a lot with this trait, what an ironic name for a song that doesn't Progress anywhere, right ?) and in general, it's my least favourite colour of them all. I really thought differently of this emotion (to the hell with emotion, I don't like this single at all, that's also important). Trip-hop, electronic, trippy music with a bit of Post-Rock tones (but more like in terms of influences).

2 stars The worst of the EPs.

I simply don't like this at all. There's something I must give Casey credit for, and it's how well defined this Color's sound is: It's the most distinguishable of all the colors, but unique doesn't always mean good.

Indigo takes spacey-ness to a whole new level. Every track feels vast, open and distant. There's very strong use of electronic noises utilized as droning that can be heard in Post-Rock, and songs don't even bother on technique or showing off, but rather on leaving the listener on a suspended state.

I personally don't like this one at all, but I'm still pretty sure fans of atmosphere and electronic ambient will like it. Two Stars, for fans only.
