seangj Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 New album from Cold War Kids out October 14, 2014. Amazon is the only pre-order for just the vinyl right now for $24.98 here. Cold War Kids are selling bundles only for some reason. Vinyl, Shirt, Print for $50 here. There are a couple of singles too. "First" - https://soundcloud.com/coldwarkids/first "All This Could Be Yours" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Exquisite Death of NK Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Robbers and Cowards: A+ Everything since (including this single after one listen): C- at best. Side note: really like the lead singer and bass player's side project French Style Furs. Worth checking out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seangj Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 FSF is great. Better than any newer CWK. Robbers and Cowards is their best by far. Loyalty to Loyalty isn't bad. Mine Is Yours is pretty forgettable. Dear Mrs. Lonleyhearts was still bland, but better than MIY. So far "All This Could Be Yours" I think is better than "First". I guess I'm holding onto hope that they will make something as good as Robbers and Cowards one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dack Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I thought Dear Miss Lonelyhearts was a triumphant return to form -- the way its songs sizzle is great -- so I'm really excited for this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Dear Mrs. Lonelyhearts never stuck with me, but "All This Could Be Yours" definitely catches my attention more than that whole album. Will check out French Style Furs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvphotoandvideo Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Loved R&C, and LTL, but MIY barely exists to me. DML was a step in the right direction. I feel like they keep trying to make sing-a-long tracks, but the songs are just okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 French Style Furs is A+ I don't know how I've never heard about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seangj Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 Updated OP with the link to buy from Coldwarkids.com Bundle only (vinyl, shirt, print) for $50. ouch, I'm sticking with my amazon order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelso330 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Loyalty was a fantastic record, IMO. Mine is Yours was ok considering they tried to be Kings of Leon...Dear Miss was a total failure! I am not optimistic for this album...a steady decline since first 2 records...

thepunkguy Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I may have missed this on the thread but does anyone know when the "official bootleg" version of this LP is going to be in stores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seangj Posted September 12, 2014 Author Share Posted September 12, 2014 I may have missed this on the thread but does anyone know when the "official bootleg" version of this LP is going to be in stores? No. I assume a week or so before the release date. I think that was what they did with DML Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spider Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Ordered 180 gram clear wax from a link I saw on Instagram. Absolutely agree nothing's been as good as R&C, but I think that's mostly due to over producing. Most everything sounds great live. Either way, CWK are a band I have a full discography of, so I'll keep buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spider Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 ^^ This has already been changed from clear to black wax. Axed for a refund, and will track down a bootleg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hxcoliver Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I know this is the wrong thread, but it's sorta related. Anyone listen to French Style Furs yet? I got the album a few days ago and really dig it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spider Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Got two thirds of my refund. Now to find out about the other third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Got two thirds of my refund. Now to find out about the other third. How in the hell did they only refund you 2/3s? That seems like bullshit to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spider Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 RIght? Apparently the money I got back was for the LP, and the rest is for some online access thing. Told them I don't need that either, so the rest should follow soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
