Cold War Kids are back with their upcoming sixth album ‘L.A. Divine’. Cold War Kids (Formed 2004) are an American Indie Rock band from California. The members are Nathan Willet (vocals, piano, guitar, keyboards, percussion), Dann Gallucci (guitar, percussion, melodica), Matt Maust (bass guitar), Joe Plummer (drums, percussion) and Matthew Schwartz (keyboards, piano, guitar, percussion, vocals).
“I wanted to capture my own relationship to LA.,” Willett told NME of the writing of the record. Lots of talk about long term relationships. There are too many songs about new love and breakups. What are the songs that dig deeper? LA became the backdrop and how being an artist in entertainment while being in a grounded relationship is like being pulled in two different directions.”
He added: “I think [the album] is more rock, more upbeat, more direct. There’s only 1 kind of sad, melancholy song, I’m pretty sure. Usually we have like four really abstract slow weepers. Not this time.”
‘L.A. Divine’ will be released on 7 April.
Ready for the new album, Love is Mystical got me pumped
I like it.
this album is in the wrong category… this isn’t an indie band, they are on a major label Capitol Records.
