Cold Court – “Cola”

Philadelphia glitch masters Cold Court are back with the new single "Cola." It's their final single, following "Burn" and "Backslang," from their forthcoming EP \ (^_^) / that's out this Friday. "Cola," which was the last song that Mini Serrano and Jojo Lavina-Maldonado worked on for the project, has some shrill, shredded piano woven in there and some thick-necked synth work that recalls Justice. It's vivid on the level of an abstract impressionist painting.

Well maybe I picked the wrong artistic era to describe it. "We created without inhibition or concern for genre or era. We approached it more like a painting. We didn't want to be another band, we wanted to be Basquiat. We were in our neo-expressionism bag \ (^_^) /," Jojo said in a press release.

Listen to it below.

\ (^_^) / is self-released 6/19.
