For this concept album each month from November 2011 to March 2012 a song came into being. Every one of them is the most emotional expression of personal experiences and experiences of nature during the time of creation. The five songs reach a total playing time of more than 40 minutes.
As it is typical for concept albums, also "Weeping Winter" emerges its full force only when listened as a whole in one run. He who only listens to the music along the way is definitely missing something because of the richness of music elements. The music on "Weeping Winter" unfolds its charm because of the Drone, Noise and Industrial components as well as other stylistic devices.
Although the record can be seen in stylistic relation to Drone and Funeral Doom, genre boundaries get exceeded. The compositions are also not aligned to ordinary song structures. Furthermore, the songs are complex due to a large number of audio tracks and many details. Nevertheless they do not miss certain catchiness. Each song retains its individuality, but as a whole album the songs form a unit.
"Weeping Winter" was professionally produced. The mixing and mastering took place in Blockstudio, in Berlin. Music and artwork were produced by The Cold View.
"A brilliant and very atmospheric Doom/Drone Metal project. [...] If you're feeling brave enough this is an excellent album to check out. [...] Highly recommended" - Sludgelord
"In my opinion The Cold View is a very great sounding mixture of Drone and Funeral Doom Metal and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this band." - Dark Underground Music Zine
"If you want to deepen your depression in this sometimes so sick and depressive world, this is all you need to fall down completely." - Droning Earth
