Honestly, Klapper, there are bound to be at least some songs on here you'll enjoy. The Indigo EP sounds like someone had been listening to some radiohead or bjork, while the Green reminds me of Good Old War at times. The Red EP rocks pretty hard with Manchester Orchestra, and the White reminds me if Thrice's Air was a bit more uplifting and energetic.

Are the individual ep's getting separate releases/have they already been released? I ask because someones gotten pretty ambitious with The Dear Hunter's artist page here
|

I like that they are there both as a whole and as separate ep's. As a compilation, this rules.

Yeah I like that they are separate EPs too (although I don't care if that is represented on Sputnik with 9 different EPs)
I rarely have time to listen to 36 songs at once, so im sure i will end up going with a random EP a lot in the future, which will still rule partially because they all work on their own and partially because in the back of my mind i know there is more to it

I did a review of this for their Color Spectrum album (not the extensive collection as reviewed here)., I must say it was very well done and like the concept suggests the instrumental aspects match the nature of the colors. It reminded me of the Thrice's Alchemy Indexes. A well written review Sowing : )

It does look kinda stupid on the artist page, but it is true that you can get them individually.

I'll review the EPs individually sometime so I'd like the pages to stay around.

4.7 average? Let's not get carried away here.
After my first listen, it's a 3 - 3.5 at most. Good job on the review though, very well written.

"good review but i know i don't have the attention span for this album atm"
thats funny because Casey said recently on his website, that one of his motivations for making a 2+ hour collection of music was to show that people do have attention spans still now days. He thought that record companies try too hard to tailor releases to people without attention spans, and wanted to make something that would require people to sit down with their headphones, and zone out for a couple hours.

Your second paragraph sounds very conflicted with the rest of the review. On the one hand you are trying to say how great this collection is, and at the same time try to argue how it seems fail to fully realize its conceptual goal.
I don't think the concept of this album was going much deeper than allowing for each color to represent a certain sentiment musically. The band was then able to show how many influences they have by composing music from different genres for each ep that reflect these sentiments. I think it is easy to hear these distinctions in style, from ep to ep. A yellow song sounds very different from a black song, as does each of the other ep's. The two that sound the closest in style are red and orange. I think that is a nice detail, considering how orange is a secondary color of red anyways.

This album is fucking incredible. Never cared much for The Dear Hunter before, but they have more than won me over on this one.
