Cola share new single, “Conflagration Mindset"

“Conflagration Mindset" arrives after lead single "Hedgesitting", and was written after the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires, in which vocalist and guitarist Tim Darcy lost his home.

Speaking about the track, Darcy explains: "Most of the lyrics on this track were written after I (Tim) experienced a house fire during the wildfires in LA last year. The phrase "Conflagration Mindset" became a jumping off point for one of the more personal songs on this record, though I certainly pulled from an array of experiences. When you go through something like that, people come out of the woodwork and share their stories with you. I learned a lot about house fires in general and the way they can reshape lives and whole communities. Because of that it's really a song about the nature of loss in general.

"This track began as a wintry-cold synth and drum machine exploration that Evan sent around. Ben and I were hanging out at his apartment and were immediately taken with it and started messing around with finding ways to play aspects of his synth part on bass and guitar, a fun challenge we continued to explore even in the studio as we played with blending the synthetic and live versions of the track."
