North London indie rock band Sorry have released a captivating lead single from their album COSPLAY in November 2025.

Centered on the metaphor of a candle, the track depicts a suspended mental state that is neither burned out nor fully extinguished, quietly unfolding themes of identity’s dissolution and transformation.

Expanding the hues of psychedelic pop, the sound is marked by humid low end and ornamentation that rises like smoke.

The work carries the intriguing backstory of being inspired by Timothée Chalamet and Bob Dylan, poetically exploring cosplay-like assimilation through the lens of pop culture.

It’s recommended for those who want to savor the ephemerality of becoming someone else and the sensation of one’s self-image losing its contours.
