Each of the eight tracks is designed to flow into the next, creating the impression of a continuously evolving piece rather than a collection of tracks, but it's a mixed bag musically.

Colors is essentially one 64-minute song broken up into 8 tracks. The album flows as if it was recorded in one take and retains a truly amazing fluidity.

The band's next album, The Silent Circus, was its breakthrough, gaining a cult-like following by mixing metal, hardcore, jazz fusion, emo, and electronics, sometimes all in a single song.
