OUT FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1 VIA CWKTWO/AWALCOLD WAR KIDS ON TOUR NOW
Cold War Kids have released a
video for “Beyond the Pale,” a new song from their forthcoming album NEW
AGE NORMS, 1. The song, co-written with Mikky Ekko (Rihanna, Clams Casino),
is a piano ballad that features lead singer Nathan Willett at his most
emotionally bare as he shares the universal tale of a life spent on the road
away from his family. The video portrays the frenetic yet fun lifestyle of
being in a band on the road while the despair in the lyrics reshape how one
sees these images.
