Sorry's New Album 'COSPLAY' Blends Past and Present in Uncanny Fashion

In November 2025, the London band Sorry released their third album, 'COSPLAY', which marks a departure from the irony that characterized their previous work. The album is a sonic exploration that blends pop culture references and alluring idiosyncrasies, capturing the disquieting sounds of a foregone future.

Over the past decade, Sorry has embraced the tension between the past and present, shining a floodlight on their musical influences and references rather than burying them in the mix. Across their two albums and a collection of EPs, the group has incorporated elements from Oasis, Tears For Fears, and Death Cab for Cutie, refashioning them in their own wry, neurotic image.

With 'COSPLAY', Sorry has taken on new personas, from UGK MC to folk troubadour to dark ambient chanteuse, without the veil of irony that once kept listeners at a distance. The result is an unpredictable, sensuous, and slightly spooky album that reflects the disquieting reality of a future that has already been shaped by the past.
