Cold Shoulder is now coming more and more a band. The music they play can be described as 'indi-noise pop'. 
The songs differ between little more singer-songwriter material, pop songs with a noisy edge and some louder material. 
Bands Cold Shoulder is compared with are for example bands like Sebadoh, Bonnie Prince Billy (aka Will Oldham), Johan and Built to Spill.

We are sure you can hear in our songs to what we listen. We hope the combination of this is telling you something or may give you a great time.

At the moment Could Shoulder is busy to finish their first album. The songs which you will find on sound cloud are recorded in, studio Moskou in Utrecht, during rehearsal (the 'demo' songs) or in Studio 195 in Wernhout (near the Belgium border).

If you think you can mean something for us and do like our music, contact us (e-mail: cold-shoulder@hotmail.com). For example if you know a great place or venue where we should play, do a gig.
