On their 2020 debut 925 and 2022 follow-up Anywhere But Here, London’s Sorry hammered together a sometimes jarring collision of sounds that took in everything from lo-fi bedroom pop and indie to glitch and drum ’n’ bass. On their third album, Sorry’s mutant hybrid holds together much more coherently. That’s in part due to core duo Louis O’Bryen and Asha Lorenz leaning into their more unsettling qualities, with the resulting atmosphere binding everything under its dark spell. With Lorenz’s childlike vocals shifting between panic-attack anxiety and creepy playground taunts, COSPLAY skips and lurches through a shadowy sonic underworld coloured by clanking industrial noise (“Jetplane”’s frenetic collision of beats), haunting gothic nightmares (the Cure-like miasma-swamping “Love Posture”), and desolate folk (the O’Bryen-fronted “Life in This Body”). While the album’s title might suggest dressing up in someone else’s style, on COSPLAY, Sorry have fashioned something truly unique.
