Cola Announce Their Debut Album ‘Deep In View’ And Unveil A Detached New Single, ‘So Excited’

It was bittersweet when Ought announced their break-up late last year after nine years of being a band. However, the ending also marked a new beginning in the form of a trio named Cola, who released the promising “Blank Curtain.” Now they’re back with the announcement of their debut album Deep In View as well as a US and UK tour. They’ve also released a new single, “So Excited,” the title of which is a bit ironic, considering the vocals are a detached deadpan in the vein of Interpol and the mathy instrumentals are repetitive and aloof.

“We would talk about this track as the ‘capstone’ of the Cola record,” vocalist and guitarist Tim Darcy said about the song. “It was that song that we would warm up with and get tight on since it was one of the first to really come together, plus it’s fun to play. There are Cola songs of mine that predate this one but this was the one I was working on when Ben told me he was going to come back from grad school and we talked about jamming together. It clicked when we played it out with Evan and from there we decided to work on songs for a new project.”
