The Colour
As the affectedly Anglophiliac spelling of this Orange County-based band's name indicates, the Colour originally had a stake in the early-2000s revival of British post-punk tropes, alongside the likes of the Strokes, Interpol, and Hot Hot Heat. However, as that scene has faded from Next Big Thing status, the Colour have dropped much of the faux-English posturing while (at least temporarily) discovering their inner heshers.
