Blue, the colour of peace and calmness, here the musical chameleons from The Dear Hunter have a hard time, trying to make something that's not their usual kind of stuff - quiet, peaceful music. Nope, TDH were always about emotional bursts full of melody hooks, wild crying out loud. And indeed, much of it reflects here too and you can't call it peaceful (as in minimalistic) album, but they're trying to, do their personal approach to such emotion. Again, I have to admit how diverse this album is, how it manages to capture mood of most these feelings. And again the did it.

SpongeBob background music.

Terrible way to describe this EP, I know, but that's the best way I can define this Color's sound in a few words. As if Green wasn't chill enough, Blue takes it on a whole another level, practically nothing happens in this entire EP.

Blue has no prog aspects, no alternative rock aspects, no country aspects, it's just chill acoustic ballad-oriented music with a very spacey vibe. Just like Green, this album consists entirely of ballads.

There's no standouts in this album, all songs are ok and enjoyable due to their simple nature, but not remarkably phenomenal. Three Stars, good but not essential.
