From my experience, grungy and bright can each be difficult to pull off. These guys did both and nailed it. File size does seem a bit over the top, but I'm not going to assume that they didn't research their users first.

I think the site looks good. I wouldn't say it was bad because of too many colors, and I don't think it looks anything like the Century Media Records site. They did a good job on the look and feel of the site.

I must say that reading the source code was a pleasure. However, the source did not validate as xhtml strict. If you are going to put that much effort into your code, might as well make it validate. Also, the css didn't validate either.

@ Adam, Colin, Jason, Abinadi:

Cheers for the comments - all very much appreciated. I admit that the filesize is a little on the dangerous side, but yeah, we felt we could get away with it!

The XHTML Strict validation is sadly broken because of a very poorly-written CMS that had to be strapped on to the site... I wonder how often this happens! Lots, I imagine. The CSS should validate, though: see here

@ SrcnCkr: "Too many colours" isn't really an intelligent criticism of any site, let alone one where the primary colour scheme (red / yellow / green) is based on the Jamaican flag with which Reggae music is so synonymous.
