Coldrain have teamed up with Bert McCracken (The Used) for a new song titled “Poison.” That track will appear on the group's new album, “Optimize = Optdemise,” which will be out on September 25. Vocalist Masato said the following:
“‘Poison’ is a song about love and desire—about how something, or someone, you love can become so addictive that it’s easy to lose yourself in it. Trying to find the right dosage of that love—enough to satisfy you without letting it consume you—feels like one of the most human struggles there is. The song also features killer vocals from the one and only Bert McCracken of The Used, one of our all-time favorite singers. His signature voice brings a rawness and emotional intensity to the track that makes ‘Poison’ feel like a timeless emo masterpiece.”
