Title: COLD
Post by: Vultch on March 31, 2003, 09:34:20 pm
Cold is a band I've dug for a couple years now. Their last album had some mindblowing tracks. "No One" was an amazing single, the one that got me hooked. From the same album there was 2 tracks Aaron from Staind did vocals on. The best being "Bleed" which was a soft acoustic song! It was a single too but got little play.
Last year they had the song "Gone Away" on the MTV Tough Enough soundtrack and that got good play.
Now they have a new album coming out on May 13th... and I just downloaded it (6 weeks early!) and I LOVE it! "Stupid Girl" is the lead single but its not even close to being the best track. Most the tracks on here would be perfect singles.

Cold has some amazing albums.... however I am forced to add a P.S. and that is this: they suck live! Scooter the lead singer just can not bring the same feeling to the stage thats on the albums. Which is sad but I still enjoy the albums!

> This song was really well done in 'A Walk to Remember".  I am such a sucker for that movie.  Not just because of Mandy Moore.  The forst time I saw it, I didn't know who she was.  The soundtrack really got me into the movie.

> Speaking of AWTR, Switchfoot is also a great band.  Thier tune from the movie  just kills me.  I get the shivers when it comes on durring the movie.

> Ya... Ah... I am not even touching that one.  'Popass'  and Mandy Moore in the same sentance is an interesting subject.  It is more of a fantasy really.  I will keep it clean for all the kiddies though.

I just saw the "Stupid Girl" video for the first time on MTV's Return Of The Rock. Decent video, performance mostly... Scooter's new look is interesting. The bald head with the scruffy beard.  8O

Yet another chance to sit back and laugh at MTV's attempt to be hip. They have this thing called "The Leak" where they offer an entire album in streaming Real Audio format a week or so before the release...
http://www.mtv.com/music/the_leak/cold/index.jhtml

To bad the rest of the internet got "the leak" a month ago.
An interesting note tho, there's a "bonus track" which is actually "Gone Away" from last year's Tough Enough soundtrack. I thought they were just gonna leave it off the CD, but it looks like it'll be on there as a bonus track after all. Good move, I like that song.

I got a promo CD sampler tonight, it had "Cure My Tragedy" on it so me thinks that will be the second single from this album. A good choice if so!

So close yet so far. I almost got to see COLD live last night but they cancelled last minute because one of the band memeber's father died. Hopefully they'll reschedule soon.

I don't know. I just saw them two days ago, and I didn't really like them. At all. I mean I wasn't the biggest fan before, but a live performance did nothing for me.

(abridged review)
Renda and I headed to the End Session with COLD.
We had to walk about 8 blocks to get to the studio where it was being held. But due to my poor map skills we ended up taking a detour and when we got to the studio, 2 people got to the door 5 seconds before us. So we were 3rd & 4th in line. So this is about 1:15pm, the End Session was slated to start at 2:15pm. Hour early, just about right. 2:15 rolls around, no sign of the band, 3:15 rolls around, no sign of the band. 4:15 a SUV pulls up and Scooter & Terry get out. 3 hours we waited outside in the sun, dehydrated, hungry and loopy as all hell!
So the band is setting up, Terry comes outside again for a smoke and is talking to the first girl in line, she was a total Cold fan so that was cool for her. He finished his cigarette and went back inside, and finally they let us into the studio. Since we were nearly first we got right up at the front and grabbed PILLOWS! I was basically laying down for the whole thing, plus peeps behind me could see too then. All the lights were off and lots of candles lit, it was beautiful.
Cold was late arriving because they had just come from a 30hr bus ride from Kansas to Seattle, with little sleep. Scooter wasnt feeling 100%, but his performance was amazing!!! They did an acoustic set with "Gone Away", "Bleed" which half way through Scooter wasnt diggin the way it was going so he started it over. Thats my favorite Cold song too so I was lovin it... TWICE! Then they played "No One", and "Suffocate" which during the chorus he started to sing the original lyrics he had written for the song on accident. lol so he started over that one too. Then by obligation basically they played "Stupid Girl". lol That was gonna be the end of the set, Terry was done but Scooter wanted to do one more song, so he grabbed the guitar and performed a rare bonus song called "Check Please".
After that we all head out and pass by the table where they sign stuff. I got them to sign a promo 8x10. Told Terry he did a great job when he was playing with Staind back in 2001. And I like thanked Scooter and shook his hand.

For Kevin / Scooter / Terry

So then Renda and I head on back to Bumbershoot. I get to where we were to meet up. The gate to Memorial Stadium was open and people were flowing by the hundreds, John & Phil had already gone through. So we go in, use a payphone and get a hold of John. I go to score seats in the grandstand to find John, Phil, Lisa, & Biggs all there too. Renda makes her way back and we hang out for a while waiting for the show to start. Phil & Renda being totally insane head down to the field to be closer and get killed by the moshpit. smooth move.
Cold comes out. Acoustically they were AMAZING but I've seen some of their live rock performances and usually they are not that great... they blew me away! EXCELLENT SET! You would never know they were hella tired and damn near dead. They hit it right on! I was totally impressed and am an even bigger fan now without a doubt after a perfect acoustic show and a perfect rock show.
(then Evanescence performed)

the new single "Suffocate" has finally started getting some airplay.
Its a radio edit with the "fuck" replaced by something else, I forget what they used. But its amusing.
Title: COLD
Post by: Holly on October 21, 2003, 08:21:14 pm
really? cool! i wanna hear it...
i thought "cure my tragedy" was the next single? or will that be the one after suffocate?

i missed them when they were here, i was so mad! it was my brother's birthday that night and i thought it would be rude to ditch him for a concert, lol.

This week they are on MTV's Hard Rock Live. First airing was tonight, but it'll repeat this weekend.
Those guys kickass. And I always like seeing Terry do his thing, he's a diva on the guitar, some of the tricks he does to create the effects.
And now he's playing with Evanescence. HA!

Its not permanent, just while Cold is on hiatus, Terry's been filling in.

not the blonde, Terry's got long dark dreads, covers his face most the time when playing but when you see em walking around, he's kinda the chunkier one of the bunch.
During the show he plays on the right stage side.

Not sure exactly. After the Nintendo Fusion tour they were taking time off, and Terry is doing this...
I dont know if they will continue touring in the Spring or maybe work on a new record. I'm not in the COLD loop enough to know which.
