Latest Musical Discovery, the awesome Cold War Kids

...just want to offer a big plug to the Cold War Kids - have listened to their album "Robbers and Cowards" only thrice but was enough for me to start adding their vinyl to my collection already.

Sadly they are American but I can forgive them for that, as their music is completely fresh and inspiring. Hints of Jack White's genius are in there somewhere along with distinctive vocals occasionally remenicent of the dearly-departed Jeff Buckley and hint of Arcade Fire thrown-in.

But I dont want to tag them as emulating anyone - they are their own sound, so listen - they have some free tracks to download here Cold War Kids free mp3 download

I recommend Heavy Boots near the bottom of the page - but the best tracks are on their album, tracks such as Hang Me Out To Dry are brilliant, I would happily copy the cd and send to it everyone but thats illegal seemingly and not going to help get this group the recognition they deserve - so you'll ave to buy it!
