Why do we like this?

So, umm, where did this single come from? Let me just say that in no way, shape, or form was I expecting a new album so soon from Cold War Kids, but come October we will be welcoming their fifth studio album, Hold My Home.

"First" is the first single off said album, and as a long time follower, I'm glad to see that they are still sticking to their roots. Nathan Willett's vocals are as emotive as always, and he makes his presence well and truly known on this expressive piece of rock.

Pretty darn excited, to say the least!
