Cold Years - Take you to 'Paradise'

Cold Years have just released their new single 'Night like This' from their forthcoming album 'Paradise'

Cold Years have today announced the release of their highly anticipated debut album 'Paradise', which is set for release on May 8th through eOne. It doesn't come much more grim than life in a gritty, remote Scottish city like Aberdeen. So says northeast native Ross Gordon, anyway, vocalist with rising, heart on sleeve Rock four piece Cold Years.

If you want a sense of the true sound of youth disaffection in post Brexit Britain, look no further. On May 8th the band will finally release their highly anticipated debut album 'Paradise', ­a title bearing more than a suggestion of sarcastic snarl to go along with the considerable bite found on the music contained within. Echoing the infamous, despairing, "it's shite being Scottish" rant made by protagonist Renton in Irvine Welsh's 1993 novel 'Trainspotting', Ross' near nihilistic take on the town where he was born goes further still, almost three decades and a generation later.

Rather than succumb to the pitfalls that laid waste to previous generations, however, he poured all of his frustration and all of his anger into the thirteen songs that represent his band's first foray into full length recording. Unlike the often bleak subject matter that inspired them, however, the songs of 'Paradise' burst from the speakers with a 'clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose' soul, springboarding off timelessly vintage-tinged sounds, fuelled by lung busting choruses and buffed-up with a thoroughly modern day, blue collar Punk Rock sheen. It's a proud Rock 'n' Roll record, capturing with unflinching honesty a World that offers little reason for hope, even if the songs sound anything but hopeless.
