We’ve already heard “Cracks,” the debut single from Cold Beat‘s Into the Air. Now, the San Francisco quartet have shared “Spirals,” the album’s second single. Where “Cracks” runs its synths at full volume until they go hot and crackle into guitars, “Spirals” is much tidier, an appropriately hypnotic cloud of circular synth-pop. “Spirals” feels like one of the more honest songs I’ve written. It’s a song describing an emotional state of surrender,” singer Hannah Lew said in a statement. “I really allowed myself to be vulnerable and express some feelings I might not have had access to in a normal band setting. It’s more intimate. Stepping away from guitars and leaning more towards electronic instruments seems like a natural evolution for the band right now.”
