The indie-rock band Broken Colours from Buckinghamshire is slowly gaining recognition in the UK music scene and has now reached a significant milestone. Their new single, "Pretending," is also the title track of their latest EP, "Could Be Worse." This song not only fits the project, but also defines it.
Broken Colors have always found a balance between strength and emotion, rooted in High Wycombe. Impersonation builds on that foundation with confidence. There's no doubt about it, the song starts with a sense of power. The bluesy rock swagger and modern indie sensibilities come together to make something that feels both new and old. It makes a lot of noise. The noise of a stadium. A song that must be played live.
When the chorus starts, you can really feel the emotion. The song sounds brave, but there is an honesty that comes through the layers of rhythm and distortion. It sounds like an anthem born of real life, honest thoughts, and real feelings. Broken Colours fully embrace their artistic growth, going beyond their past works and refining their identity with bold determination.
With "Pretending," Broken Colours show they are not just another indie-rock band putting out a single, they are an evolving group that grows more powerful, sharper, and more interesting with each release. "Could Be Worse" shows us their past, and "Pretending" shows us where they're going.
