Hailing from Minneapolis, COLD COLOURS was formed under the name of WOLFTHORN in 1995 with sole member brian j huebner. After releasing a few demos, WOLFTHORN changed their name to COLD COLOURS in 1999 while recording the debut full length CD "Somnium XIII."A second CD entitled "The Burden of Hope" was released in 2005.

While a show was played at the 1999 MILWAUKEE METALFEST; COLD COLOURS didn't become an actual working live band until 2001. COLD COLOURS has performed all over the U.S. for the past 7 years. Also headlining all the major venues in the Minneapolis Area including First Avenue, Station 4, The Rock and many others, earning a strong following in the Twin Cities Area.

After many different lineups, Brian finally met his match in Ryan Felgen, who joined the band in 2008. The 2 are currently writing many new songs for the future. The 2 core members have also been joined by live members Sam Van Moer (Gracepoint) on bass, and Dave Hart on Guitar.

While maintaining our own identity, we are strongly influenced by acts such as SENTENCED, AMORPHIS, MOONSPELL and PARADISE LOST.

COLD COLOURS has shared the stage with a wide variety of acts including ICED EARTH, MOONSPELL, AMORPHIS, CANDLEMASS, WITHIN TEMPTATION, FASTER PUSSYCAT, KATATONIA, BEYOND FEAR, THE LAST DANCE, DORO and many more!

While many different sounds have occurred in the bands tenure, COLD COLOURS are a Metal Act that some have called Goth Metal, Progressive, Aggression Depression and most notably WUSS METAL. We have pride in being a Dark and Moody Heavy Metal Band with a Rock and Roll Attitude! .

'eclectic and very progressive metal music. very unique and excellent! ~ DARK SYMPHONIES label and disto (usa)

"Cold Colours display a beautifully crafted and primitive aspect of heavy metal that is so often forgotten. The magnificent dexterity of these guys is something of a prodigy.
