Today may be the birthday of Cold Cave frontman Wesley Eisold, but we are the ones getting the gift. As the band embarks on their 2019 tour, they released a new single called Promised Land. The timing is perfect because this is definitely one of those songs that you can’t wait to hear live. It’s a dark, romantic track that would do well in any dark wave / post punk club scene. We certainly plan on playing it at our next club event!
This single follows the 2018 EP You & Me & Infinity which featured what I believe to be the best song of 2018 – Glory. It seems as if they have given us a song already guaranteed to finish high on our 2019 best of list.
Be sure to catch Cold Cave on tour featuring warm up acts VOWWS, ADULT and Psychic TV.
THERE’S NO RESTING FOR THE WICKED
IMAGINE HOW TIRED I AM
I PRAYED FOR WARMTH AND PEACE
BUT SOME WINTERS NEVER END
IN CALIFORNIA BURNING
OLD HAUNTS AND A NEW ROMANCE
IN LIFE WE LOVE
IN DEATH WE DANCEI GET A LITTLE TOO HIGH
I GET A LITTLE TOO LOW
TAKE MY HAND
TO THE PROMISED LANDI WANT TO MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE
I WANT TO MAKE YOUR DARKEST DREAMS COME TRUE
CHERRY KISSES ON THE LIPS AND
ALL GOLD GROWS UNDER YOUR RAINBOW
CAN I JUST SPEND MY LIFE
BURIED ALIVE INSIDE OF YOUIN LIFE WE LOVE
IN DEATH WE DANCEI GET A LITTLE TOO HIGH
I GET A LITTLE TOO LOW
TAKE MY HAND
TO THE PROMISED LANDITS A LONG LONG LONG WAY TO GO
ITS A COLD COLD COLD ROAD ALONE
BLUE DAYS
BLACK NIGHTS
PURPLE HAZE
WHITE LIGHTITS A LONG LONG LONG WAY TO GO
ITS A COLD COLD COLD ROAD ALONE
