You are tripping, the moon and Antarctica is the definition of cold.
Try listening to the first track without shivering, without thinking of winter.
EDIT: "Lives" may be the coldest one, colder even than The Cold Part.
EDIT2: I take it back, the cold part is SUPER cold. Lives is just more memorable
I totally agree, but I'm not sure OPs notion of 'cold' is the same as ours.

I didn't even know music had a temperature! I still have so much to learn about earth culture.

Not super common I guess, but I find temperature describing a valid way of describing how music feels to you... Closely related to matching colours to music, which seems more generally accepted as being a 'real' thing

_Cold: high-pitched, clear, dry, minimalistic sounds. Metal, ice, brittle materials breaking. Abrupt changes. Sharp sounds, with reverberation. Clear, precise, correct, sterile. Digital, technological. Lack of emotion.
Hot: Pleasant, immersive sounds, without abrupt changes. Muffled sounds, as if heard through a warm blanket. Warmth = wellbeing. Rich, deep, low sounds. The sound of soft materials melting. Human, analogue, non-digital. Love, closeness, emotion._
And also for example how a high quality vinyl record playing on old school decent stereo can really feel very different (warmer) from all other ways of listening to the same music... In general imo society did lose audio quality (warmth) when moving away from vinyl and big stereos to digital and pc speakers, Bluetooth speakers, earplugs... it's still the pinnacle listening experience for albums.

Sharp edged & heavy but nice for napping, with it on low volume in headphones. Has a dreamy quality. Not warm, not cold or expansive. Something about it is neutral to me.
Father John Misty, most of his catalog.
A lot of alternative rock stuff is very neutral sounding to me, not warm or cool, it's between.
