VIOLET COLD<br />
Anomie<br />
I just love it when totally out of the blue,<br />
you come across a new band or artist that<br />
you have never heard of before, and they<br />
totally blow you away.<br />
It was only yesterday when talking to<br />
Alex from the mighty Microdance that he<br />
sent me a link to a brilliant new album<br />
from an Azerbaijan artist, recording<br />
under the name Violet Cold.<br />
Now, it is, as ever, tricky to give a name<br />
to the music Violet Cold are making – is it<br />
shoegaze, maybe dreampop, could even<br />
be post black metal nu gazing something<br />
or other? – who cares. What I do know is<br />
that it is totally entrancing, beautifully put<br />
together and full of tiny ideas that send<br />
a shiver to all the places you need a<br />
shiver directed to at some point or<br />
other.<br />
Other than the music I know nothing<br />
about Violet Cold, but hopefully we can<br />
put that right over the coming months,<br />
and they are truly a fantastic band (if a<br />
one chap band is called a band, I don’t<br />
know.)<br />
Either way, go check them out and<br />
enjoy, they are quietly, and then loudly<br />
and then louderly brilliant.<br />
