I introduced you to electro-pop quartet, The Pass, last month, to a great response, something that’s always exciting when dealing with a brand new band. Now The Pass are offering up the title track from their Colors EP for you all to download.

“Colors”, instantly likable and kinetic, is cut from the same A-Grade cloth of indie pop that made Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix one of the late ’00s most memorable records. You can listen to and download “Colors” below, and make sure you also have the Pass’ debut single “Crosswalk Stereo”, which you can download for free right here.

You can now purchase The Pass’ Colors EP at iTunes, via sonaBLAST! Records.

I dunno bout you guys, but this isn’t doin as much for me as Crosswalk Stereo. I’ll give it another few listens and see what happens.

I like Crosswalk Stereo more as well, but I feel like this one is more of a radio play tune…super catchy beat and what not. Red Square is my favorite song of the EP, they should post that one.
