Deep in View is the debut album by Cola, released on Fire Talk. The band is new but members Tim Darcy (vocals, guitar) and Ben Stidworthy (bass) have previously played in Ought and they are joined by Evan Cartwright (drums), who used to play in The Weather Station and U.S. Girls.
Together they created the essential collection of dry and competent post-punk, that should immediately appeal to those who like the genre. The guitar work is fantastic and at some points songs go to really unexpected places (especially on the second half, like the beautiful and haunting closer “Landers”). Clocking in at just over half an hour, it is an easy record to love at first listen.
