If there’s any type of music that will surely tug on anyone’s heartstrings, it’s those that sound like they’re recorded in an empty space, only starting with vocals and a guitar. “Cold Rain October” excelled in that department, with its vulnerable lyrics and a small, complementing rhythm.
cellardoor.mp3 and just martin collaborated on this single, creating an array of harmonies and verses that will get up all in your feels. It’s truly admirable how many new artists are coming up this year, releasing their own creations to the world and carrying their passion up their sleeves.
This song comes from a perspective of someone who’s self aware and unwilling to turn back to someone, or a relationship, not worthy of their time anymore. The proclamations and deliveries have firmness in them, and every description is said with certainty. In other words, this song is a response from someone who knows their worth, but is not afraid to admit how something in the past made them feel.
Despite the hurtful tones, the conclusion comes out better than it all started. Not only is this a great song in terms of ambience and melody, but it allows listeners to reminisce and move on, all in the span of one song. Go check “Cold Rain October” out.
