Cola, the collaborative project of Ought's Tim Darcy and Ben Stidworthy, and U.S. Girls/The Weather Station drummer Evan Cartwright, have shared new track "Degree" from their upcoming debut album Deep In View.
"Degree" is the fourth track to be lifted from Cola's debut album, following previous singles "Water Table", "So Excited" and "Blank Curtain", and arrives with a Rapapawn-directed video.
Tim Darcy told Consequence of the new song, "The character in "Degree" is cycling in and out of these dreamscape states (movie theater, meditation, etc) and then trying to catch up to something in their day to day life. I picture what it feels like running to catch the bus when you’re in a daze and suddenly have to sprint."
Deep In View is named after Alan Watts’ anthology of the same name.
Cola started collaborating in 2019, and ended up writing songs separately when the pandemic began. Darcy explains, "It wasn’t the post-Ought band right off the bat, we really just took time to enjoy the process of collaborating and writing songs together."
