Is there a frame upon a frame? I’m making decollage Is there a notion to explain the mirror to the wall And the blank curtain What’s on the other side Of the blinding solar? I’ll take it as it rides There’s a rosary of patient pain, a second and it’s lost I wish it could be easy on you, that I could reduce the cost of the Blank curtain What’s on the other side Of the blinding solar? I’ll take it as it rides There is a blurriness, a thinness, in that context life Who flip through pages aimless, lit matches matching up right To the blank solar What was on the other side Of the blinding curtain? Does it provide? Is there a frame upon a frame I’m making? Is there a notion to explain the mirror to the wall And the blank solar What’s on the other side Of the blinding curtain? Does it provide?

about

Cola is a new project from former Ought members Tim Darcy and Ben Stidworthy formed with US Girls drummer Evan Cartwright. "Blank Curtain" provides an exciting hint of the way the new project picks up some of the threads of the pair's earlier work and weaves them into engaging new shapes, constructing a driving tangle of guitars around an arresting performance from Darcy.

"What started as stripped-down open D songwriting with a CR-78 soon became a full album and new band. We wanted to see how far we could stretch our compositions with just drums, one guitar, one bass, and one voice.

Blank Curtain is a quarter note kick drum pushing 240 bpm, a drone-like chord progression, and declarative vocals cutting through the haze. If you could invert the color of the Blank Curtain, you might have something like a Chicago house track that sounds like a band in a room."
