Cold - Superfiction Review

Cold On July 19th, Cold will make their return to the music scene after being on hiatus for the past several years. Singer Scooter Ward was focusing on his side project "The Killer and The Star" which was very different from Cold. After much speculation of who were actually in the band and with many push backs, we will finally see this release. The band returns to some familiar territory with this album as well as exploring the new. You will hear some classic COLD on this record as well as some "The Killer and The Star" influences.

"Wicked World" starts the album with its "Just Got Wicked"- like sound. I hate to compare the music to the previous albums but for the die hard fans I will. "13 Ways to Bleed comes to mind when hearing the opener for the album and will put a smile on any COLD fans face. "What Happens Now" could have been off of the last COLD album with its big chorus and chugging guitars leading the front. I believe "American Dream" can be the next single from the record as it has radio written all over it. This song starts with an eerie ballad like guitar line that kicks into a big melodic chorus. The bridge of the song is my personal favorite with the gang vocals singing ",,,, And the Stars will shine in Hollywood." "Welcome2MyWorld" is more to the range of "Stupid Girl" and not as heavy but in the 6/8 time signature this is a great sound for the band to take on. This is a fun upbeat type of song for Cold.

The song "Emily" has a very dark chorus and a grunting Ward that we haven't heard in a while. Towards the end of the album we get into the slower songs. "Delivering the Saint," "So Long June" and "Flight of the Superstar" were the Killer and The Star songs resurrected to COLD status. You can tell since Ward is singing the same as he does in TKATS but with a little more auto tune this time. "The Park" gets back to the typical COLD sound, heavy and melodic.

So the question is will COLD fans like this album? Yes. They will love it. Again, not the best album, but definitely on the right track for bring the band back together and hope to see more from this band soon. The stories that Ward tells on this album and the lyrics are quite good as they do a great job brining COLD back to life.
