Cold's eponymous debut is a set of ugly, harsh post-alternative metal in the vein of Korn. The group concentrates on brutal, bleak riffing, instead of tight songwriting -- it's an album about texture, where the hard-hitting, post-thrash rhythms and the group's vaguely nihlistic undertone combine to form a scary, provocative succession of sound. Cold's songwriting isn't always great and they're too concerned with adolscent angst and horror ("Everyone Dies," "Insane," "Serial Killer," etc.), but the band's sound is fully formed, resutling in a strong debut. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine Cold Music Review Average Rating: (3.7 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Cold fan?
If you like Cold, you will like this! Not as good as Year of the Spider, but still worth it!

 Very Dark Debut by Cold
I bought Cold's Year of the Spider before any other and I went back and bought the other two after I heard it. Basically I think they have grown as a band because their third cd sounds a hell of a lot better than this. Now I still like this cd, it's just really dark, many fans might love the sound, but it just seems too dreary for me. I give it 3 stars.

Great debut CD
This CD is one of the best debut CDs I have ever heard from a band before. The darkness really captures emotions felt by everyone. Scooter is a genius, and the darkness is what cold is all about.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No My favorite
Out of all of their albums and being a fan for over 5 years...this S/T is still my favorite. Scooters voice is original, I love the growl. Kellys guitar can only be described as eerie, Sam's druming is very very talented, and Jeremy is an amazing bassist who knows how to change up the sounds. The lyics in this album just doesnt compare to any other band. It's so deep and so dark. I love all the other albums with all my music loving heart, but this one has always really hit the spot on my depression days. Always nice going to a lake on a starry night blastin cold and think about things all night.

As the title might suggest, this grunge-metal effort is suitably gloomy and visceral, both in the growling vocal delivery of lead singer Scooter and the band's triple guitar assault. While it's nothing remarkable, there are enough decent hooks to tunes like "End of the World" and "Just Got Wicked" to make the album appealing to even the downright optimistic. ~ Tim Sheridan

| | VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD (2002)
Cold
$6.39 
The Corrs: Jim Corr (vocals, guitar, keyboards); Sharon Corr (vocals, violin); Andrea Corr (vocals, tin whistle); Caroline Corr (vocals, drums, bodhran, percussion).
Recorded at Ardmore Studios in Dublin, Ireland in January 2002.
You knew the Corrs had made it when they played the final JFK Awards ceremony of the Clinton administration. Playing it would have been achievement enough, but their status as a happening thing was cemented at the end of the ceremony, during the encores, when everybody was taking their final bows. Bill moseyed up over to Andrea, put his arm around her, and when she was looking away, sized her up -- at precisely the same moment Chuck Berry was checking her out. If that doesn't mean that you've broken America, entering its pop culture, I don't know what does, expect for maybe a VH1-endorsed piece of product like Live in Dublin. Lo and behold, that's exactly what the Corrs received in the spring of 2002, a year and a half after "In Blue" and its accompanying single "Breathless" broke down the doors in America for the U.S. Only two songs on this set list are shared with In Blue, but that doesn't mean that the group returns to their slightly more traditional Celtic roots on the remainder of the songs. Sure, there are hints of that, but there are also four pop covers, two of them ("Little Wing" and "Ruby Tuesday") featuring Ron Wood, with another song, the Lee Hazelwood/Nancy Sinatra duet "Summer Wine," featuring Bono. Some of this is not unfamiliar to the Corrs' repertoire, since they did cover "Little Wing" before, on Talk on Corners (plus ...
| | Breaking Benjamin Saturate CD (2002)
Cold
$10.45
Prod.By Ulrich Wild (Deftones, Powerman 5000,Static X)
This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
Contains an untitled hidden track following "Shallow Bay".
Breaking Benjamin: Ben Burnley (vocals, guitar); Aaron Fink (guitar, background vocals); Mark James Klepaski (bass, background vocals);
Jeremy Hummel (drums, background vocals).
Producers: Ulrich Wild, Bret Alexander, Paul Smith.
Recorded at Larrabee East, Los Angeles, California and Royaltone Studios, North Hollywood, California.
This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
As an alternative/hard rock band, the defining point of one's career is signing to a major label. With that said, it makes it all the more surprising that just as Lifer had begun to create a buzz on mainstream radio, guitarist Aaron Fink and bassist Mark James Klepaski quit in order to join Breaking Benjamin. Whether they saw something special in this independent band or were just sick of their former band's career decisions is unknown, but Breaking Benjamin went on to sign to Hollywood Records, and Saturate has serious potential to become one of 2002's most successful debuts, as although it is repetitive and generic, it is undeniably addictive. Molding hard rock in the vein of Nickelback with the more aggressive side of Korn, Saturate is accessible ...
| | Cold Year Of The Spider CD (2003)
Cold
$12.19 
Cold: Scooter Ward (vocals); Terry Balsamo (acoustic & electric guitars); Kelly Hayes (guitar); Jeremy Narshall (bass); Sam McCandless (drums).
Recorded at Bay 7 Studios, Valley Village, California and Sparky Dark Studio, Calabasas, California.
While no less a nu-metal authority than Fred Durst was their original benefactor, Jacksonville's Cold has always had a secret weapon in its heavy rock arsenal: mouthpiece. It's mouthpiece Scooter Ward's powerful singing -- not shouting or rapping, like so many of his contemporaries -- that distances he and his mates from the pack. This doesn't mean they're better; indeed, Cold's first two releases weren't consistently strong efforts. However, with the release of Year of the Spider, Cold has placed more emphasis on atmospherics, centered itself behind Ward's lyrics, and has even collaborated with Weezer. While these moves might alienate some metalheads out there, it's a great way of surviving the coming day of judgment, when the bell will toll for all but the best of the nu-metal moaners.
Year of the Spider was produced by Howard Benson, who's best-known for masterminding P.O.D.'s triple-platinum Satellite. Just as that group tempers its pummeling rhythms with passionate lyricism, so Benson has massaged the aggro-metal of Cold's initial releases into a better framework for Ward's gruff croon and deeply personal lyrics. Grappling with a family crisis, Ward pleads bitterly and openly in "Cure ...
| | Dredg Catch Without Arms CD (2005)
Cold
$8.49
Personnel: Nathan Calvin (vocals).
Audio Mixer: Terry Date.
Recording information: Studio Litho, Seattle, WA.
Editor: Ingrid Erickson.
Arranger: Chris DeGarmo.
It makes sense that Terry Date produced Catch Without Arms, Dredg's second record for Interscope. The producer is a veteran of Deftones albums, and it's that band's rich but still rocking palette that's the intent here. And they succeed. Like past Dredg releases Catch has a conceptual flow. But openers "Ode to the Sun" and "Bug Eyes" focus the grandeur and meandering pace of the band's past work around effective melodies and a steadiness in the rhythm. The choruses emphasize the Bono/Chino Moreno in Gavin Hayes' vocal, and when the rhythm drops out for a contemplative piano moment, nothing feels forced because this is what Dredg has been working toward for years. It's not like in the blurry emo world, where string sections crash regularly into soliloquies and it usually just ends up as melodrama. Catch Without Arms looks to groups like Deftones and At the Drive-In, but there's also a tremendous capacity in Dredg for straightforward pop. The title track is a standout, as is "Zebraskin," which with its keyboards and silky beat could be Cousteau or Sweetback. No kidding. And then the churning guitar intro of "Tanbark Is Hot Lava" drops, and you're bewildered again. "Sang Real" features drum processing and treated piano, "Planting Seeds" has the tension/chorus release quality of contemporary ...
| | Cold Different Kind Of Pain CD (2005)
Cold
$11.85
Cold: Scooter Ward (vocals, guitar, piano); Mike Booth, Matt Loughran (guitar); Jeremy Marshall (bass guitar); Sam McCandless (drums).
Their guitars are certainly loud, and there are moments when Scooter Ward bellows. But with Different Kind of Pain, Cold has largely departed alternative metal for brooding electric ballads. Distorted notes ring out meaningfully as Ward dwells on despair, shame, and symphonies of sadness. "If God created love, did he make it for everyone?" This is a very similar trajectory to Staind's, where feelings matter considerably more than rocking, and the quest for redemption never seems to end. Cold did almost end, incidentally. In 2003, Geffen soured on the band in the midst of promotion for their sophomore album Year of the Spider. Internal strife followed; Kelly Hayes departed, and Terry Balsamo joined Evanescence. Ward even had sick family members to deal with. Still, the band regrouped with new members, and a new label in Lava/Atlantic. Maybe that adversity accounts for Different Kind of Pain's subdued, searching feel. On the title track, the sound of pattering rain gives way to reflective piano notes and more unguarded lyrics from Ward; a guitar surges forth toward the end, but instead of launching into a explosive solo it only sets up the chorus once again. This is a song slow-motion hugs are made of, and there's nothing metal, or even post-grunge about it. Heaviness isn't a requirement for the band to be effective. But unfortunately, like Staind, Cold often ...

Additional personnel: Brendan O'Brien (keyboards, percussion).

Photographer: Catherine Wessel.
After taking a harder and more frequently metallic approach on its self-titled fourth album, King's X continued in that vein on its next project, Dogman. Through it all, the Christian headbangers remained very recognizable and continued to make recordings that were impressive, even if they did fall short of the glory of Gretchen Goes to Nebraska (which remained their best album). Showing an awareness of the mid-'90s alternative rock scene, guitarist Ty Tabor had grown increasingly aggressive -- and yet, brute force is hardly the only thing this album has to offer. King's X was still a band that thrived on harmonic nuances ...

U.K. remaster with extra songs.

Recorded in 1979 at the Marquee in London, the band's third album did nothing but prove that they weren't quite ready for the big-time yet, although their next album, 1982's Chase the Dragon, would be their first major success. Poor sound quality and multiple instances of microphone feedback make for an awful listening experience. ~ Jon Samuels

| | Coheed & Cambria No World For Tomorrow CD (2007) Bonus DVD; Deluxe Edition; Edited
Cold
$16.95
Like previous prog powerhouses Rush and Yes, Coheed and Cambria showcase an immediately divisive element in singer Claudio Sanchez's high, sweet voice--a choirboy lilt that undermines the musical muscle for some, while granting it an additional dimension for others. No matter the listener's opinion on the vocals, no one can deny the scope and ambition of C and C's vision. NO WORLD FOR TOMORROW is not just an album--it's also the next chapter in the band's multimedia sci-fi comic book story, THE AMORY WARS. It's rare for a band to use its music specifically to tell a continuous, overarching story, and even rarer for it to come with its own accompanying comic.
The music, like the concept, is a distinct throwback to the bombast of the '70s arena-prog titans that once plentifully populated the earth. Thoughtful acoustic passages give way to epic, soaring choruses, with arena-filling guitars and washes of keys swelling over the whole mix. Songs like "The Hound (of Blood and Rank)" and "Feathers" blend the theatrics of prog-metal with the more pedestrian drama of emo standard-bearers like Fall Out Boy and Jimmy Eat World, while slower ballads like "Mother Superior" revisit the pastoral Tolkienism of Led Zeppelin. For fans that have been following the band's epic story, it's the equivalent of another STAR WARS movie, but there's plenty for plain old rock fans to enjoy as well.
With guitar bombast and shrill vocals, No World for Tomorrow concludes Coheed and Cambria's long-running prog-opera about family, homicide, and the apocalypse. There's enough genuine melody here to attract newcomers, but tuning in to Coheed's sci-narrative during its final installment (Tomorrow is the finale of a multi-chaptered story) is similar to watching Return of the Jedi without seeing any of the preceding Star Wars flicks -- there's still fun to be had, but one can't help but feel a tad uninformed. Accordingly, the album is simple ear candy for those who haven't studied the band's previous releases, and sweet resolution for those who can spot the references to older songs (specifically "Blood Red Summer") and former riffs ("The Crowing"). Claudio Sanchez continues to steer his bandmates through progressive rock territory, using Queensr˙che's Operation: Mindcrime and Rush's conceptual catalog to help light the way. Like the singer's shockingly huge mound of hair, Sanchez's vocals are campy, ludicrous, but nevertheless appealing, with high notes and vibrato-heavy lines drawing the usual comparisons to Geddy Lee. Still, the whole package may be difficult to stomach for some ...
