'He was a lonely ghost uttering a truth that nobody would ever hear. But so long as he uttered it, in some obscure way the continuity was not broken. It was not by making yourself heard but by staying sane that you carried on the human heritage.'

COG @ The Middle

There's nothing like watching a great band perform live and having seen COG play once before I was thrilled to see them again. They didn't disappoint, rocking a packed crowd!


COG's music is often political, with lyrics that carry a message of change, of not just accepting that life has to be this way. Singer and guitarist Flynn Gower summed this up perfectly before they played their song 'What If' from the soon to be released album 'Sharing Space'. He said "people accept that there is only one option in life, when there are infinite possibilities" and that 'What If' "explored some of those possibilities".

"What if in the future people just decided, no more leaders fighting to control us"

Great gig guys.

Big thanks to Charlyn for the photo.
