Cold War Kids More Satisfied With Third Album

Cold War Kids 'Mine Is Yours'

Nathan Willett of Cold War Kids spoke with the Sacramento Bee about the band’s latest album ‘Mine Is Yours’, which the frontman said was a more satisfying effort from their first two albums ‘Robbers & Cowards’ and ‘Loyalty to Loyalty’. “The first two albums were the result of our eagerness and insistence on recording live. We would only be in the studio a week or two,” Willett exlained. “This time we’ve spent a few months in the studio, and it’s allowed us to make changes and capture ideas. I remember thinking that if ‘Loyalty’ is the last record we do, I’d be disappointed. It was a step, but I thought, ‘We have to be about something bigger.'”
