The Sizzos / "Back to Cold"

   



The Skinny Review:
"Back to Cold" is a single from The Sizzos brand new album, Glitter in Gravel -- both released on August 4th. The album features a variety of styles, moods, and musical guests, creating something akin to a story through song. "Back to Cold" has an interesting mix, with subdued, almost buried vocals that give it an atmospheric vibe.

In Their Own Words:
“This was the first song written after the first album was released. While the first album was nostalgic lyrically, I wanted to create something nostalgic sonically. That led me to more of a shimmering guitar sound and prominent synth that I associate with the ‘80s.

This song was written in about an hour during a horrible bout of wildfires in the Pacific Northwest. I was homebound with my family feeling cooped up, frustrated about the toll we take on the planet, and real real hot! So, while I was wishing for fall to arrive and put out the fires and turn everything green again, I decided to mesh my need for cool air and clear skies with the perspective of the environment around me. So, in this song, it is really the planet speaking to me/us.”
