The Cold War Kids have been ruling the indie music scene since 2004, and their newest album, ‘Loyalty to Loyalty’ is a sure indication that they intend to continue their reign. The band started this year off right with a major presence at the SXSW music festival in Austin, TX, and for the next few months, they will be on a world tour with Death Cab for Cutie. There aren’t any Boston dates set in stone yet, but with their early album success, you can bet that the tour will extend its way to Beantown.
I recently heard their new single “I’ve seen enough,” and it sets up a disappointing mood in the opening line ‘how’s it gonna feel when summer ends, out of money, out of friends,’ but the song is a beautiful reflection of experiencing a situation you don’t agree with and deciding to step in and take action. This song reminded me of the feeling I had when seeing the poor response to Hurricane Katrina on television. I was done watching people dying in the streets. I had seen enough and wanted to take matters into my own hands. Supported by strong vocals and lyrics that successfully carry out the singer’s frustration, this tune is on the track to be a Cold War Kids classic.
There’s currently a music video directed by Vern Moen found here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbxL9yDPJB4, but the web site verifies that an official music video directed by Sam Jones will release on their web site and probably youtube by the end of April, and “aspires to shatter all molds of existing online music videos.” I’m personally looking forward to the shattering. Keep a watch on their web site www.coldwarkids.com for these updates, so you don’t miss out on Nate Willett’s urgency to clap along with his own songs and the new music video.
