History

Cold Cave was founded by Wesley Eisold, former vocalist of several hardcore groups including American Nightmare/Give Up the Ghost, Some Girls, and XO Skeletons,[1] and also the founder of publisher Heartworm Press. The group represents his first venture into instrumentation.[2] Though Cold Cave is a solo project, Eisold was soon joined live by Dominick Fernow of Prurient.

After initial releases on Dais Records, Hospital Productions, What's Your Rupture?, and Heartworm Press, the group is currently signed to Matador Records.[3] who re-released their debut LP, Love Comes Close on November 3, 2009.

Cold Cave was among the bands chosen by Matt Groening to perform at the edition of the All Tomorrow's Parties festival he curated in May 2010 in Minehead, England.
