Cold Blood Club opens for Future Bible Heroes at Bowery on 07.23

“Goodbye to All That” (streaming below), the new single by Brooklyn art-rock ensemble Cold Blood Club, could be taken as an adieu to their previous sound — nervy, chorus-heavy dynamics based around the husky alto of Kendra Jones. This time around, Tom Staurt handles the leads in a soaring new romantic swoon that feels vibrant and tragic, the perfect vehicle for delivering the painful theme of letting one thing go in the quest for personal redemption. The track dips and rises around shimmering guitars and a tribal rhythm, reminding that the train of life goes in one direction: Forward. Catch Cold Blood Club at the Bowery Ballroom with Future Bible Heroes (featuring Stephen Merritt of the Magnetic Fields) and Luxury Liners on July 23.–Brian Chidester. – Brian Chidester
