ColourMind’s brand new single “Wish It Was” is consistent with the alternative punk direction the group are headed in, while offering enough deviation to keep things interesting. The thick guitars, pounding drums, rumbling bass and angst-ridden vocal performance hit the listener with a cathartic range of emotions. 
Here, ColourMind are again inspired by bands such as Blink-182, Green Day, Rise Against and Sum 41, but inject some melodic metal lead and solo work into the established major-key soundscape.
Thematically, the song deals with the need to gain a sense of belonging. Wanting to leave your hometown is an age-old tale in the pop punk genre, but here the metaphors and imagery flesh out the co-dependency that prompts you to stay.
In summary, “Wish It Was” is a pop punk song with metal elements, searing with emotion that hits you right in the feels. The band’s successful blend of punk influences and metal lead work is poised to please those who are fans of both styles.

ColourMind’s line-up consists of:
Jimmy Watson – lead vox/guitar
Jonny Essiech – backing vox/guitar
Reg King – backing vox/bass
Matt Wenke – backing vox/drums
