Los Angeles psychedelic rock outfit Tombstones In Their Eyes present their new single ‘I Am Cold’, born from a period of intense personal freefall. It’s a raw, unflinching look at vulnerability and the chilling acknowledgment of emotional detachment, transforming inner turmoil into a powerful, resonant anthem.
‘I Am Cold’ is released by Kitten Robot Records, along with the B-Side ‘Take It Down’, which was recorded during the ‘Asylum Harbour’ sessions. Spawned from a dark night of the soul, is a visceral outpouring of longing and a stark confrontation with a perceived numbness. A testament to creativity salvaged from the depths, this song is a gripping sonic journey forged in a crucible of personal hardship.
‘I Am Cold’ is the final offering from the band’s latest ‘Asylum Harbour’ album, following psychedelic audio-visual trips for the singles ‘By My Side’, ‘Gimme Some Pain’, ‘I Like to Feel Good’ and ‘Mirror’. Recorded at Kitten Robot Studios, this album was recorded produced and engineered by Paul Roessler (known for his work with Josie Cotton, Nina Hagen, Hayley and the Crushers and Gitane Demone) and co-produced by John Treanor.
Today, Tombstones In Their Eyes is made up of long-time members John Treanor (vocals & guitar), Stephen Striegel (drums), Courtney Davies (vocals), Phil Cobb (guitar) and Paul Boutin (guitar), along with new band members Nic Nifoussi (bass) and Clea Cullen (vocals).
What started as a demo-swapping exercise between Treanor in LA and James Cooper in NYC a decade ago evolved into a powerhouse band crafting expansive psychedelic soundscapes. For Treanor, these sonic explorations are not only an immersive subliminal journey, but a way to grapple with anxiety and depression by channeling it into art that boldly gazes outward at the universe while diving deep into the soul. Literally a cosmic therapy session.
The video for ‘I Am Cold’ was created by Italian multi-arts visionary Francesca Bonci, known for her work with Federale (BJM’s Collin Hegna), British bard Philip Parfitt, The Dandy Warhols’ Peter G. Holmström a.k.a. Pete International Airport and Slowdive’s Rachel Goswell.
‘I Am Cold’ is out now, digitally everywhere, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp, where the ‘Asylum Harbour’ album is also available on CD and on snazzy red vinyl.
