LISTEN: How To Dress Well – ‘Cold Nites’

Listen to the new single taken from Tom Krell's follow-up to last year's Love Remains

How To Dress Well, aka Tom Krell, is set to release his new album Total Loss – the follow-up to 2010’s well received Love Remains – on September 17th through Weird World. Its predecessor, an album of glacial sunken R&B songs, had impressive reach, finding its way from end-of-year-lists to a surprise appearance on Ben UFO’s mix CD for Rinse FM. The new album promises a jump upward in both ambition and fidelity – you can sample the results on new track ‘Cold Nites’, which you can listen to above.

"’Cold Nites’ is a song about the will to preserve love”, says Krell of the song, “already a miraculous thing in the most hospitable situations – across long distances, challenging times, life’s changes – this will to love can give us the most beautiful stability and sense of accomplishment, but can also lead us into totally spiritually rending compromises, split between worlds."
