Why do we like this?
Prepare to step into a psychedelic secret garden when you listen to Secret Colours' "Blackbird (Only One)." All I keep thinking about while listening to this track is some tripped out scenery with mirages of unusual horticulture and rainbow-colored sky.

So basically, this song is great if you're into mind-altering substances. It's droney with a touch of kraut. Secret Colours easily melds a couple genres together: the psychedelic 60s and the grunge-filled 90s. Together you get a melancholy wonderland of retro fuzzed-out guitar adorned with spacey pedal effects and lulling, hypnotizing vocals.

May 28, 2013 is the date to remember. That's when Secret Colours will be releasing their upcoming album, Peach.
