Their 2005 debut <em>The New Normal<\/em> established the Sydney trio as festival mainstays, leading to Gold-certified follow-up <em>Sharing Space<\/em> in 2008.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">After a five-year hiatus, Cog\u2019s 2016 comeback tour sold out entirely, proving their fanbase had only grown stronger. Recent years saw the band finally gain control of their music rights after a 15-year battle, leading to long-awaited vinyl releases and another largely sold-out Australian run in 2024.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">\u201cWalk The Line\u201d marks the band\u2019s first new material since the standalone track \u201cDrawn Together\u201d dropped six years ago.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">\u201cWhatever the future holds, we would like to once again express the deep gratitude we have to all the people who have supported the band over the years,\u201d the band shares. \u201cWe hope you enjoy the new music we\u2019ve created together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>\u201cWalk The Line\u201d is out Friday 26 September, with exclusive early access available Friday 12 September via Cog\u2019s YouTube channel.
