Montreal post-punk trio Cola are making their Australian debut this June, in support of their new album, Cost of Living Adjustment, out May 8th via Fire Talk.
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.
This June, Australian audiences will finally get the chance to experience Cola's taut, hypnotic live show, with dates spanning the east coast and beyond. Don't miss it, tickets on sale now!
