May 11, 2026The lushest, most fleshed-out Cola record so far.

May 11, 2026Cola don’t offer any easy answers here — that’s not their style. But it’s an album full of dynamic passion and determination, from a band to keep following.

May 8, 2026Not everything here works; the album’s middle section gets a little too bogged down in the weeds to the point of distraction. However, the final stretch sees a thrilling switch to route one, such as the climax of Third Double or the excellent Favoured Over The Ride.
