COLD WAR KIDS ANNOUNCE NEW SINGLE AHEAD OF NEW ALBUM

Cold War Kids have officially announced the release of their eagerly anticipated new album. ‘New Age Norms 1’ arrives Friday 01 November. Produced by Lars Stalfors (St. Vincent, HEALTH, Foster the People), ‘New Age Norms 1’ marks the first volume of a three-album trilogy from Cold War Kids. The album – which features cover art by the Los Angeles-based band’s bassist, acclaimed artist Matt Maust – is heralded by today’s premiere of the new single, ‘Waiting For Your Love,’ available now at all DSPs and streaming services.

“Last summer we were on tour when Kanye was putting out his new records,” says Cold War Kids’ Nathan Willett. “Pusha T, Kids See Ghosts, Nas, etc. They were eight songs each. It was so fun waking up to these brand new records and taking them in as a whole while hanging out, working out, talking shit, pushing each other. I knew then I wanted our next release to be three volumes – eight songs each. Without the baggage and hoopla of a full record/tour/concept – more spread out – loose and inspired. Make it feel like you are listening to music that was made the night before. NEW AGE NORMS is a phrase Maust had written on a tee shirt. It seemed to summarize this moment we are in as a band and as a country. More on that later…”
