Cola: “Albatross”

Tracks
Written By Michael Gutierrez

Albatrosses are getting panned lately. Local alt rockers Sorry, Ma! slammed the winged wanderers in their own track “Albatross.” Now Canada’s Cola is getting in on the act with our highlighted track “Albatross.” The classic Cola formula of krautrock-damaged post punk minimalism is in full effect. Vocalist Tim Darcy has some stories to tell on the new album The Gloss. Come for the DIY artcore stylings, stay for the bird slander. Available via Fire Talk Records.
