THE Alarm frontman Mike Peters has confirmed a side project for the follow-up release of a 1999 album. COLOURSØUND II is the brand-new album from the alt-rock songwriting project by Billy Duffy of The Cult and Mike Peters of The Alarm. With a release date set for July 16, COLOURSØUND II is a record of raw power, utilising the rock genre’s simple but effective components of guitar, vocals, bass and drums. Closing a gap of twenty years between their first record and now, the creative partnership of Billy Duffy and Mike Peters was originally forged in 1997 when neither were aligned to the groups with whom they are equally synonymous.
