Cold Feeling is the sixth album by Australian indie rock/electronic band Underground Lovers. It was released in 1999, and peaked at #92 on the ARIA albums chart in March 1999.
The band comprised just original members Glenn Bennie and Vincent Giarrusso but the album also featured contributions by Matt Bailey and Mérida Sussex of The Paradise Motel, ex-Triffids pedal steel guitarist Graham Lee, minimalist producer/performer David Chesworth, as well as cellist Helen Mountfort and violinist Hope Csutoros from My Friend the Chocolate Cake and Robert Tickner and Jim Yamouridis, former members of Melbourne band A Bunch of Lonesome Losers.
On Cold Feeling, the band "approximated something similar" to the 1981 album Architecture & Morality by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark.
Two singles, "Cold Feeling" (November 1998) and "Infinite Finite", were lifted from the album.
