Cold Cave – The Laurels of Erotomania


Cold Cave is an experimental synthpop musical group based in Philadelphia. According to Pitchfork the band’s sound “weaves incomprehensibly distorted vocals with bits of synthetic feedback”, but some songs “also come bearing serious hooks.”
The group was founded by Wesley Eisold, former vocalist of several hardcore groups including Some Girls, American Nightmare and Give up the Ghost, and also the founder of publisher Heartworm Press. The group represents his first venture into instrumentation. Though a solo project, it now includes additional live members and collaborators: Caralee McElroy (ex-Xiu Xiu), and Dominick Fernow (Prurient).
After initial releases on Hospital Productions, What’s Your Rupture?, and Heartworm Press, the band is now signed to Matador Records who re-released their debut LP, Love Comes Close on November 3, 2009.
