Foreign MySpace band of the day: Cold Remember - by N.L. Belardes
Cold Remember, a post-hardcore band out of the agricultural landscape of Fresno, California fits nicely into that hard-rocking scene just 100 or so miles to the south along the Southern Valley rim. Unless you want to go ahead and admit it’s a valley scene… Now this came about because Sean from the band wrote to me and let me know they has new demo stuff online… And I gave it a listen… more than once.
This five fab from Fresno appears mellow upon first listen to their ‘Untitled’ song. Give it about 45 seconds and it speeds up into one of the best melodic adrenalin rushes I have heard in a while. I’ve listened to this song about five times in a row and keep enjoying the build-up to its emotion-driven ending. But you have to listen to it all the way through to feel the impact and value of this song.
I’m thinking the rest of you will enjoy ‘Fist fight in a phone booth’. There’s your valley angst in a song right there. It screams, it sings, it transitions back and forth between softly seducing to screaming at you for being human.
These guys need to put more into their site. But I like their enthusiasm, “There's five of us. We like music, so we create it. You create something.” Now there’s a message we should all listen to… Go ahead, ask yourself what you have created today. And while you’re thinking, spin that song ‘untitled’ again and again. When the ending comes driving in like a rainstorm you might just feel inspired with creative thoughts of your own. Get to know Cold Remember, I'm sure I'll be writing about them again.
