Coldwar is an intense and culturally conscious metal band originating from Dublin, Ireland, known for their socio-political themes and their aggressive blend of hardcore punk and extreme metal. The band's music is a testament to their name, reflecting the tensions and dichotomies present in the socio-political landscape, much like the historical period of the Cold War itself. Since their inception in the early 2000s, Coldwar have carved a niche for themselves within the metal community with a sound that is as cerebral as it is visceral.

Their catalog of recent releases, including "Pantheist" and "Christus Deathshead," showcases their ability to merge relentless riffs with thought-provoking lyrics. With "Babylon The Star Spangled Whore," Coldwar critiques the modern-day political climate and consumer culture with a scathing intensity. "Bloodfire Sunset" and "In the Suns Dead Rays" continue this trend, exploring themes of existentialism and the human condition against a backdrop of unyielding sonic force. Each release contributes to their reputation as a band unafraid to challenge both musical boundaries and societal norms, solidifying Coldwar's standing in the international metal scene.
