A post-hardcore / metal band with energy, ambition and attitude!
Cold Black was formed in the winter of 2011 near Copenhagen, Denmark. The ambition from the get-go was to create a hard-hitting and heavy band with a very melodic edge and a visual aspect like few others. The band came together easily and naturally, since Vic (vocals) and Alex (guitars) are brothers and both cousins to Martin (guitars). Jamal (drums) was a long time friend and a talented drummer. Vic was originally both the singer and the bass player, but in the spring of 2013, Jeff was added on bass to increase the intensity and energy of the entire live performance.
Within a year of the band's inception, they were playing some of the biggest venues in Denmark. In late 2012, Cold Black was discovered by Terry Coughlin, president of DJQ Artist Management, and given the opportunity to travel to Cleveland, Ohio to record a 5-track EP. The EP was recorded during the summer of 2013 at Spider Studios, Cleveland and was later mixed by Matt Dalton (Attila, Vic Fuentes, I See Stars, etc.) and mastered by Joey Sturgis (Asking Alexandria, Attack Attack, Crown The Empire, Blessthefall, etc.).
The EP is called ”In Motion” and is a testimony to the wide aspects of Cold Black's songwriting skills. From heavy riffs and growling lows to big chords and soaring melodies. Cold Black is definitely in motion and moving up in the world!
