Cold [1] are from Jacks… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least 10 artists called "Cold".
Cold [1] are from Jacksonville, Florida, USA. With the release of their self-titled debut, "Cold," in 1998, the band quickly became known for its angsty lyrics and the singer's distinctive voice. "Cold" has obvious touches of grunge, but on the following album, "13 Ways to Bleed on Stage," Cold changed towards a more ambivalent, and in some ways, alternative hard rock with slightly calmer, angst inspired songs. Since their early work, Cold has moved closer to plain rock, heavily inspired by lead singer Scooter Ward's dark lyrics and sorrowful sound. Cold released a third album titled "Year of the Spider" that moved them closer to mainstream rock as well as mainstream success. Cold collaborated with game developer and publisher Midway to produce an exclusive song titled "With My Mind" for the 2004 video game Psi - Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy. Their fourth release "A Different Kind Of Pain" moves more-so in the direction of dark, emotional lyrics. This album was released on August 30th, 2005.
Cold is rumored to have always been able to illicit very close and emotional feelings amongst its fans, which has resulted in a very tight fan base nicknamed the "Cold Army," an obvious Kiss reference in and of itself. Lead singer Scooter Ward is in close contact with certain Cold fans via the band's official homepage and forum, which is run and moderated by a former fan.
Former members of Cold include guitarist Terry Balsamo, who left the band after a joint tour to replace Ben Moody of Evanescence, and Kelly Hayes, who left the band amid turmoil over its future in music and in the music industry itself.
In late February 2006, Scooter Ward posted on the band's forum that Cold has "called it a day," but that he and drummer Sam McCandless will start a new project, "The Witch". The project just recently announced a new name, "When November Falls," and has also announced a tentative title for their first release as "The Series of Emotion." It is expected out in March, with the first single hopefully hitting the radio airwaves around January...
In late April 2006, Scooter Ward announced, via MySpace, that Cold was no longer going to disband, but instead simply take a break. It was presumed that Scooter Ward and Sam McCandless were going to continue work on "When November Falls" during this break. In November 2006, it was again announced that Cold was now officially over after a good 20 year run and that "When November Falls" was now Ward's main focus.
"When November Falls" was to "The Killer And The Star" in March of 2008.
In July of 2008 it was announced that Cold would reunite in 2009 for a reunion tour and a new album. The Killer And The Star would also be part of the tour.
Six years after their announced split, Cold reunited and released "Superfiction," their fifth album. "Superfiction" debuted at No. 37 on the Billboard 200, riding the success of the single "Wicked World." The album took the band in a somewhat different direction with their sound and lyrics, alienating some of their fanbase. Introspective, sorrow-laden lyrics were replaced with a form alterna-rock storytelling mimicking fairy tales.
On June 2019, Cold announces that their upcoming album "The Things We Can't Stop" will be released by September 13, 2019.

Feel It in Your Heart
Cold Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you cannot feel
Everything falls apart
In a tragedy
I am so far away from gone
I just want to be here
Everyone falls apart
In my symphony
Can you feel this in your heart
Can you take it to your soul
I don't want you to pretend
I don't want to be alone
Feels like i'm torn apart
And I cannot bleed
Caught in the web we made
This just can't be real
I am so far away from gone
I just want to be here
Everyone falls apart
In this tragedy
Can you feel this in your heart
Can you take it to your soul
I don't want you to pretend
I don't want to be alone
Can you feel this in your heart
Can you take it to your soul
I don't want you to pretend
I don't want to be alone
I don't want to be alone
Everyday
I live through this
Inside
I've changed
Everyday
I don't want to be alone
Can you feel this in your heart
Can you take it to your soul
I don't want you to pretend
I don't want to be alone
Can you feel this in your heart
Can you take it to your soul
I don't want you to pretend
I don't want to be alone
Inside
I changed
Everyday
I live through this
Inside
I've changed
Everyday
I live through this
Alone
I don't want to be alone
I don't want to be alone
The lyrics of Cold's song "Feel It in Your Heart" convey the message of the desperate need for connection, love, and support amidst the chaos and confusion of life. The opening lines suggest that love can be both a beautiful and painful experience. The line "Can't run away from love, if you cannot feel" implies that love is an inescapable emotion that can only be experienced wholly if one is receptive to it. The next line, "Everything falls apart in a tragedy" speaks to the vulnerability that comes with love, as life may take unexpected turns that can cause upheaval and devastation.
The chorus of the song repeats the question, "Can you feel this in your heart, can you take it to your soul?" This line serves as a plea for empathy and understanding from the listener, as well as an expression of the singer's own desire to feel connected and seen. The line "I don't want you to pretend, I don't want to be alone" reinforces the idea that genuine connection and support is needed, rather than superficial gestures or feigned emotion.
The verses continue to explore the theme of emotional turmoil and the need for a stabilizing force in one's life. The line "Feels like I'm torn apart and I cannot bleed" suggests a feeling of intense emotional pain that has become numb or unresponsive. This is contrasted with the later line "I just want to be here" which expresses a desire for presence and grounding. The repeated line "I don't want to be alone" underscores the message of the entire song: the need for love and companionship in the face of life's challenges.

The name and much of the album's lyrics were inspired by Ward's sister Jen's battle with cancer. In fact, the band wrote much of the material in Ward's, parent's house, particularly in Jen's room. Ward described the making of the album as "a healing process," and fortunately, as the band was finishing up, his sister had gone into remission.[1] Given the record's primary source of inspiration, A Different Kind of Pain maintains the visceral, anxious tones characteristic of Cold's sound yet strays from the band's typical aggression. Instead, it focuses almost entirely on perseverance through love and personal struggle which, while still conjuring a somber atmosphere, provides a distinctly more uplifting and spiritual presence that the group notably began exploring on Year of the Spider. This is evident "God's Song," one of various tracks laced with religious themes. Other subjects include the end of Ward's relationship to his fiancΓ© and mother of his daughter and the physical abuse of a 14-year-old girl by her father. In a first for Cold, the album also includes a trudging piano ballad in the form of its title track.
