At Work

Whaddya mean, you don’t know Dark Thoughts? They’ve mastered the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it-twice energy of that sneaky subgenre some call ‘Ramonescore’ and made it their own, revelling in hooks and pace while making you wanna inhale a good lungful of industrial-strength glue.

The Philadelphia trio have been making a ludicrously addictive noise for a few years now, dropping their self-titled debut back in 2016, and now they’re ready to move out of the shadows and firmly into ‘your new favourite band’ territory.

They’ll call to mind the Bay Area punk of the 80s and early 90s, the instancy of Dear Landlord, and the buzzsaw racket of The Queers or The Riverdales. They’re a good-time noise for downbeat folks, and they know how to get your subconscious begging for more. Get familiar, asap.
