Cola (a newly-formed band consisting of ex-Ought members Tim Darcy and Ben Stidworthy alongside U.S. Girls drummer Evan Cartwright) have announced the release of their debut album, Deep In View, which will be out on May 20 via Fire Talk. The band have also shared a video for their new single, “So Excited,” in addition to announcing a tour. View the video below, along with the album’s tracklist/cover art and full list of tour dates.

In a press release, Darcy elaborates on their new single: “We would talk about this track as the ‘capstone’ of the Cola record. It was that song that we would warm up with and get tight on since it was one of the first to really come together, plus it’s fun to play. There are Cola songs of mine that predate this one but this was the one I was working on when Ben told me he was going to come back from grad school and we talked about jamming together. It clicked when we played it out with Evan and from there we decided to work on songs for a new project.”

After the announcement of Ought’s breakup, Cola shared their first single, “Blank Curtain.”
