At the start of the band’s career, Cook would join Matt Helders and Andy Nicholson in backing vocals for songs such as “Fake Tales of San Francisco”, but has gradually shied away from singing duties, leaving them to the other three members of the group.
In the band’s early stages, Cook was considered to be the “indie music fanatic” of the group, enjoying The Smiths, The Strokes, Oasis, and Queens of the Stone Age.
