Cool Living

COOL LIVING could not have chosen a more apt name for
their debut Album Adult Contemporary and yet it is
incredibly misleading in so many ways. With intimidating
accuracy COOL LIVING’s 90s-Emo-Indie-Rock hits that
sweet spot somewhere between nostalgia and an intense
awareness of the moment that goes best with the cathartic
melancholy of an hour long lonely bus ride just when you
need it. Total Deceleration.
But Adult Contemporary is so much more than the perfect
inoffensive soundtrack. It’s the entire Anthology Film that
starts playing on the back of your eyelids the second you
lower them. Lyrically, COOL LIVING trade in the kind of
moments that are often intangible and yet so familiar. They
paint pictures with that special mixture of poetic
abstractness, utter sincerity and just a spoonful of
Americana that makes your favorite Indie movie feel like
you’ve lived it yourself.
“I’m a hot mess dancing in refrigerator light, I can blow up
in the colors of your favorite sports team if you like.”
In short: COOL LIVING is a vibe. A vibe that the three
Friends from Wiesbaden, Germany have finally captured on
Vinyl and are ready to release out into the world in 2022. A
world where hopefully full packed shows are a thing again
and make those daydreaming moments in the back of the
bus on the way home even more special. Either way, COOL
LIVING will be along for the ride, wherever it may lead.
