Sounds Like:
The next generation of dreampoppers. The impact of a marshmallow sledgehammer. Nice harmonies.
Time-lapse of growing plants. Sleepy music, beautiful sparseness.
Hybrid Magazine (US) - Januari 2008
Every song on the record is worth a single.
Xavier Records (Japan) - December 2007 - by mark
A precious disc, that carries the listener along a 51 minute's journey of floating dreams. Meet a belgian band with an international attitude. Definitely to be continued.
Dark Entries Magazine (Belgium) - October 2007 - by HV
It should come as no surprise to all those who've heard them given that they sound like some heaven bound union of the Cocteaus, the Sundays, the Lover Speaks and the Bang Bang Machine mixing soothing atmospherics with heartbreaking braids of chiming resonance that together combine into cloud kissing perfection - rip the ice tipped romance laden bliss out 'broken'.
Losing Today (US division) - August 2007 - by mark
De muziek krijgt een haast filmische dimensie, of beter gezegd: Colour Kane kan een song doen aanvoelen als een impressionistisch schilderij..
Kwadratuur (Belgium) - August 2007 - by Erik De Dijn
Colour Kane… Ou comment se frayer un chemin sur l’échiquier musical international tout en restant à l’ombre des médias. Comme dit le dicton : nul n’est prophète en son pays ! Un chant féminin aux intonations proches du groupe, quelques nappes électro atmosphériques, une basse rythmée et de sons de guitares planants. Un genre de projet pas si éloigné d’Hooverphonic qui peut s’avérer très efficace sur scène.
MusicProductive (Belgium) - August 2007 - by Géry Brusselmans
Fin dai primi istanti di "A Taste Of", la canzone che apre l'omonimo disco, le chitarre dei Colour Kane risplendono magneticamente sotto i raggi di luna e poi più vanti la voce della cantante Marjan Snykers ammalia tra vortici di delicatezze che in più di un'occasione ricordano i voli di Elizabeth Frazer.
Losing Today (Italy) - July 2007 - by roberto mandolino
'A taste of' is een trip vol elektronische beats, etherische gitaren en ijle vocalen
Rifraf (Belgium) - July 2007 - by bvm
“Love hurdles†o “Unseen†son canciones irresistiblemente seductoras, mientras que la languidez de “A taste ofâ€, encargada de abrir el trabajo, es una hipnótica introducción al mundo Colour Kane, en el cual abundarán refinadas composiciones, preciosos coros y sugerentes imágenes que depararán más de un agradable momento.
Y Sin Embargo (Spain) - June 2007 - by hernán dardes
des morceaux, en passant par les sonorités, faites de jolies guitares cristallines sur lesquelles se dépose délicatement une voix aérienne.
Le fantastique(Belgium) - June 2007 - by Frédéric Cotton
A Taste Of features no shortage of blissed-out material but perhaps no songs are more heavenly than the anthemic "Share My Ease", "Silya" and, yes, "Seaside Dream" which constitute as magnificent a sampling of dream-pop as you're likely to hear in this lifetime.
Textura (Toronto, Canada) - May 2007 - by Ron Schepper
Dit is muziek waarin elk detail tot zijn recht komt. Wat ons betreft mochten die medleys (op myspace nvdr) gerust langer duren. Eeuwig, bijvoorbeeld. Dan zouden we alleen nog uit onze zetel opstaan om het eerste volledige album van Colour Kane te kopen.
Cutting Edge (B)-
Januari 26th 2007 - by Jennifer Beckers
The lyrics are reminiscent of Cocteau Twins, This Mortal Coil, Dead Can Dance and oter 4AD bands. This sound is backed throughout by electronica beats. It's a mix I don't think I've heard before.
Lagniappe Magazine (Louisiana, US)- July 2006 - by Brad Goins
This pop trio has a light, dreamy sound that's like layers of clouds floating overhead ...pastel coloured sounds and sweet vocals will have you dancing....
Indizoo Magazine (New York, US)- March 2006
Ce premier jet est véritablement prometteur, donne envie de les suivre et de découvrir d'autres petites bulles multicolores...
Fingers in the nose (F)- Octobre 8th 2005
This cd is most suitable to spin on a sultry indian summer evening like this. Whatever, the four songs reside in my I-Pod and I don't think they'll soon dissapear from my harddisk. Simply beautifull...
