The great state of Kentucky is world renowned for many things. Bluegrass music? Of course. The smoothest, best-tasting Bourbon created by the hands of man? It doesn’t get any better. One thing that folks don’t always associate with Kentucky however is visceral, in-your-face rock and roll. The Cold Stares are determined to change that perception.

Chris Tapp and Brian Mullins have known one another for a long, long time. They grew up in Western Kentucky, just a stone’s throw from the border or Indiana, and attended different High School mere minutes down the road from one another. They originally started playing together in their early twenties before going their separate ways only to reunite in another outfit a decade down the line. “We were playing together in 2009 in another band that was doing really well,” Tapp said. “It didn’t work out, so we both kind of exited that band and contemplated retirement.” It didn’t take long before they were thankfully disabused of that notion.

That band is an intense amalgam of Led Zeppelin meets Free, Soundgarden meets Black Crowes; rock and roll wizardry where the riffs are hard, the vocals are searing, and the low end is capital “H,” heavy. Most of the album was recorded in a single day at Sam Phillips fabled recording studio in Memphis. “That’s our second record there, so there was a lot of familiarity going back in,” Mullins said. “The thing about that studio is that it’s old, and vibey. Sometimes you gotta bang on the gear a little bit to make it work. It’s kinda like the Millennium Falcon. It’s badass, but you just gotta get it running right.”

‘Heavy Shoes’ is Cold Stares’ best record yet, and they know it. It took a lot of blood, sweat, tears and doubt before Chris Tapp and Brian Mullins reached this moment, but it’s all the sweeter knowing they did it their way. “We’ve been through some tough times, and I’d say our band is a pretty good representation for blue collar people in general. People that work hard. We’re just a blue-collar American rock and roll band.” ‘Heavy Shoes’ is available August 13th through Mascot Records.

  • 5th studio album, debut release on Mascot Records.

Emotional support
Size: Large, Color: Octopus - Multi Color
Greatest toy ever! My dog is in love! This is like her emotional support toy. She sleeps with it and chews on it throughout the day. The only issue is the seams break open and the stuffing pops out after awhile. I just grab needle and thread and sew it back closed. Washes well too.

It lasted over a week- amazing for the fogzilla!
Size: Large, Color: Monkey - Green
There is no dog toy that can survive big puppies with strong jaws and sharp teeth, but the squeaker lasted a week and the arms/ legs are still intact. She's still playing with it, so I'm impressed.

Dye comes off. Stained hands and dog fur.
Size: Large, Color: Octopus - Multi Color, Size: Large, Color: Octopus - Multi Color
Literally dyed my hand and my dogs fur blue from the paint coming off immediately after opening the box. I have washed my hand multiple times and it’s still this color. I have given up on my dog’s fur. I’m assuming whatever it was wasn’t great for her to digest.

Not chew proof but great for stimulating your dog!
Size: Large, Color: Octopus - Multi Color, Size: Large, Color: Octopus - Multi Color
8 legs gone in one night! Haha to be expected because my dog is a heavy chewer. Like other costumers we are left with a blue ball which she still plays with. It’s a great toy for days that my dog really needs to get energy out. She was so tired after, she was panting like she ran for miles. I suggest combining physical exercise with things like purposeful chewing or licking toys to tired them out. Doing this has reduced my dog’s anxiety tremendously over the years therefore reducing destruction of our furniture 😅 a tired pup is a happy pup!
