DIRTY REVIVAL – “SO COLD”
SO COLD 7” (2018)

“At the time we first started working on So Cold, it was very unlike anything we had ever written together. Because the music felt so unique, in writing the lyrics I suddenly found myself focused on highlighting uncomfortable and isolating experiences. “So Cold” became a song about a couple who, perhaps due to infidelity or maybe just the passage of time, lost the passion for each other and their indifference became a source of animosity. I like to picture this song being almost screamed with a burst of intensity that, even though it comes from a place of anger, is the maybe the truest and most honest dialogue this couple has shared with each other in years.”
