Cola:
C.O.L.A. is sort of a self-titled album. It's an acronym for Cost of Living Adjustment, a fitting conceptual framework for the band's third record. Why? Because C.O.L.A. considers, among other things, socialism vs. hell. It considers: rolling the dice of life. The eerie and sweet pangs that nostalgia can provoke. This is not new territory for band members Tim Darcy, Evan Cartwright, and Ben Stidworthy. It is, in Cartwright's words "a deepening of what we've been doing." C.O.L.A. is an intricate, beautiful, and sometimes strange record. It is the band?s most refined offering. A perfection of carefully honed aesthetic impulses.
Cola, as a band, says Darcy is defined by its "tasteful minimalism." A deep appreciation for making music that is romantic, subtle, and deceptively intense. C.O.L.A., however, is the band's most maximalist work to date. This is a little tongue and cheek ("We were so worried," says Cartwright, "About all the songs on this record being too different"). In practice, this maximalism means that a song like "Hedgesitting," has both live drums and a sample drum loop. "Hedgesitting," is a gorgeous, lush song. It’s like a deconstructed, chopped & screwed b-side from the Cure’s Disintegration. It's also a little indebted to Sarah Records. "When you were young," Darcy sings at the song's start, "you came to make it."
