The Subways Release New Single “You Kill My Cool” & Announce New Album

The Subways are back with their brand new single, You Kill My Cool, which will appear on the trio’s upcoming fifth full length that is due out this fall. The global pandemic might have cut short the band’s international Young For Eternity Anniversary Tour, but they kept busy in vocalist Billy Lunn‘s newly-established Hertfordshire studio, with Charlotte Cooper and Josh Morgan, who has since left the band, in their respective homes focused on remotely recording album five. The Subways will also be hitting the road on a full European Tour featuring their new drummer, Camille Phillips (The Ramonas).

“You Kill My Cool was written at a time when I felt love so strongly that I wanted to be consumed by it, to give myself over to it entirely. I recognised a self-effacement in this feeling, as it was a willing submission or surrender that was as much destructive as it was productive. You become ecstatic, beside yourself, and not what you were before. Time stops but moves too quickly, you grow but you also diminish, you feel pleasure alongside immense pain. The one you love is more than just a single number amongst seven-billion others, more than a profile picture or a name by which you call them. They’re godlike – and with such power, they can send you to a state of nirvana and they can demolish you. Either of which continues to enthral.” (vocalist Billy Lunn)
