London band Sorry took several years to define their sound and made it - quite undefinable. "Their official debut, '925', bears all the characteristics of hungry, wandering minds not tied to pre-established structures" - Stereogum writes in a review, and adds - "in approach and nature, '925' could only come from kids raised on the internet: run-on sentences, half-thoughts, a tendency to take a bit of everything and throw it together in unexpected and idiosyncratic ways". Generally, Sorry are "still a rock band, it’s just that they make a rock music that doesn’t follow contemporary context or logic. Theirs is an artier strain that is broken down and rebuilt over and over, constantly bristling against the confines of the form... This is the sound of rifling through debris, and the strange new things you can build with what’s worth saving".

Sorry took four years to write their debut album '925', trying to distance themselves from their earlier singles that were "more rocky, and that’s not what we want to do”. '925' ended up sounding less as a genre-album, and more like their generation, with honest and vulnerable lyrics like “I want drugs and drugs and drugs and drugs, I want love”. As they told the Guardian, they are lazy, beholden to very little ambition - “We’re just making some music and seeing how it goes”.
