ELOY — Colours (review)

ELOY — Colours album cover Album · 1980 · Non-Metal Buy this album from MMA partners
2.5/5 ·
Warthur
This transitional album finds Eloy refreshing and updating their sound to suit 1980s fashions in sound and production values whilst continuing the space rock direction of Silent Cries and Mighty Echoes; in other words, whilst that preceding album was dedicated to capturing the sound of past space rock triumphs, Colours was an attempt to project the style into the future. Whilst I don't think it entirely succeeds, it will entertain anyone who was particularly taken with that album and is generally much more accessible and mainstream-friendly than Eloy's prior material. Still, I wouldn't recommend it over any of the albums from Floating to Silent Cries.
