On June 28th 2024, Kole Cook released his brand new split single songs “Paper Skin” and “Corydoras”.
“I wanted to create a weird story that could be interpreted in loads of different ways and let the listener create their own meaning to it”
Kole performs with raw and unfiltered emotion and writes with honesty throughout his process. “This song is harder to understand unless you have been in the situation where I have been in” Kole explains, “dark times lead to scary stories which is what Paper Skin is about”. Although the song is of a shorter duration, Paper Skin openly displays dark thoughts and hands them to the listener on a relaxing and melodic platter.
One of Kole’s earlier songs “Glitch” gained popularity on TikTok and developed a small but cult-like following for his unorthodox sound and darker tone in the music masked inside the uplifting and joyful sounding melodies.
Paper Skin / Corydoras is out now on all major streaming platforms – listen here:
