The Maccabees – Colour It In (2007)

When I first heard the song 'About Your Dress', I became obsessed with it - literally. I think I watched the video on YouTube about 80 times in a row, and I had the lyrics committed to memory; even now, nearly three years later, I'll happily reel it off after a pint or two. That's how good I thought this album was when it first came out. Yes, it's lost it's impact over time, and yes, Orlando's whiny vocals still grate a bit, but this album remains a perfect embodiment of whatever Dave was jabbering on about yesterday.
