LA Divine
'LA Divine,' Cold War Kids' most expansive and ambitious effort so far, pays tribute to Los Angeles in all its strange glory, embodying the Long Beach-bred band's endless fascination with their adopted hometown.
"In many ways, LA is the least divine city, the most hedonistic and irreverent and disconnected from history," says Willett. "LA's so massive, I feel like I'm always finding something new in it," adds bassist Matt Maust. "It's an incredibly weird place, and I'm happy to have made an album that totally honours that weirdness."
