Cold In Berlin announce new EP ‘The Body Is The Wound’

COLD IN BERLIN have announced a new EP!

Titled The Body Is The Wound, the upcoming EP from the gothic doom metal band is the follow-up to 2019’s Rituals Of Surrender, and is scheduled to be released in January next year, via New Heavy Sounds.

The upcoming EP was recorded at Dalston’s Bear Bites Horse Studio by Wayne Adams [GREEN LUNG – Woodland Rites] and is an exciting precursor to a new album in 2024.

Speaking about the upcoming EP, vocalist Maya explains, The Wounds… started as an idea about bringing together stories of loss and the idea that wounds can be growth, healing and that slow burn you use to fuel other fires.”

The lyrical themes on the upcoming EP dance around sex, murder, suicide and broken dreams, brought together in loose storytelling that allows listeners to add their own experiences and bring personal meaning. “I wanted to loosely tie the lyrics around two ideas,” explains Maya. “Psychology, which tells us the body houses the trauma we experience and carry with us – and Buddhism, which suggests there is no growth unless from pain; we choose to hold on to suffering even though we can learn not to, and so we continue in disillusionment – aware but not aware.”

Alongside the announcement of the new EP, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming EP; Dream One.
