For the longest time "cold lake" was Heavy Metal slang for "career-killing mistake"... until Metallica gave us "Lulu"!
Tom G.Worrior was not the Bass player.
I don't give a damn what anyone thinks, I love Cold Lake.
Tom G. Warrior/Fischer played guitar/vocalist on Cold Lake as well as the other albums. Curt Victor Bryant played bass on this album. Very good traditional Heavy Metal. Stop listening with your eyes.
"Cold Lake" was the first album I bought in 1988 from Celtic Frost and I could not understand why it was called a Black Metal band. Despites the differences, it's a pretty good album just like "In search of Sanity" from Onslaught. It only proves that if black metal bands try something else they surprises the world with how good they can actually play.
The producer himself doesn´t knows WHO the bass player was LOL. It´s really noticeable how much he hated Warrior Hahaha! I think the TERRIBLE album production was mostly Platt´s responsability but you can´t blame him for everything. Having to deal with 4 confused guys who didn´t know exactly what to do in the first place must be really hard. I mean the album is a whole mess of bad mixing, production, musical direction & terrible songwriting. Anyway this is a great interview, loved Platt´s insight into the moment. Brutally honest LOL.
This is one of the most hilarious interviews ever.
This guy is a classic rock guy n should have never been working with Celtic Frost.He doesn’t even know who played what
Calling Cold Lake a "glam record" is totally laughable tho. Maybe the back cover made them look that way.....but the music is anything but.
I listen to music with my ears, not my eyes and Cold Lake sounds absolutely nothing like Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Poison, etc. I know alot of guys were very sensitive about a band's image so I guess that affected their perception of the music very deeply. If that album is glam so is "Peace Sells".
It's so easy for younger Celtic Frost to defend Cold Lake and view it as an entertaing and temporary departure from their style. If you were listening since Hellhammer and than picked up that album as a twenty-five-old... and heard them lightening up the sound, singing about cherries, love and wine and dressed like Faster Pussycat that must have been extraordinarily depressing.
“But Tom, he was definitely confused” hahaha classic
They went Reverse-Pantera!
that ghost story is pretty damn amusing lol
Would like to hear his take on Another Perfect Day. Great album
CL is pretty rough but Vanity/Nemesis holds up.
Celtic Frosted Flakes
I feel Roses Without Thorns was great. Juices Like Wine is a comical song... The album may have been called lousy by many fans and even the band but there are die hard fans like me call it wonderful.
Remember buying this album when it first came out. Was like walking bare foot and stepping in cold shit. What a disappointing album.
It is not necessary to say that “he was definitely confused” the band was completly out of focus. The album got its moments like: (Once) They Were Eagles, Juices Like Wine, Downtown Hanoi and Roses Without Thorns. These songs I think that are the older ones from the album, they are more in CF vein than the rest.
