Cox formed Deerhunter with drummer Moses Archuleta in 2001. The band has released eight studio albums along with several singles and EPs. Atlas Sound is a name Cox has used since he was ten to refer to his own music. Cox has released three full-length productions under this name. Let the Blind Lead Those Who Can See but Cannot Feel (2008), Logos (2009), and Parallax (2011). Cox's method of creating music is stream of consciousness, and he does not write lyrics in advance.

He made his film acting debut in 2013's Dallas Buyers Club.
