COLD IN BERLIN: London dark/doom rockers build a bridge to post-punk

SPONSORED POST

Cold in Berlin are releasing their fifth album “Wounds” on November 7, 2025 after a six-year wait. As usual, the Londoners combine doom metal and post-punk to create a hypnotic work of art. Singer Maya explains the concept behind it: “Wounds” is “a series of songs about the different ways people live with and process the ‘wounds’ of their lives. A strange celebration of those defining pains we’ve all experienced in one way or another. The loss and joy of survival – the joy of finding others like us, the gift of knowing that after the fire comes life.”

The first single to be released is “Hangman’s Daughter”, a “song about unrequited love”, Maya explains and continues: “A woman was loved, but could not return this love, so she is drowned by the man who loves her. However, she is not lost – she pursues the murderer and he cannot escape her. The title hints at the past, but in fact this is a very topical subject for women today – how they can literally survive not loving a man who has decided he only wants them.”
