Blink once and you might miss the first Dark Thoughts LP in almost six years. Blink twice and half of Highway To The End is already gone — 11 songs in 16 minutes, each one buzzing with relentless energy and zero filler.
If there’s a tighter, faster, dirtier Ramonescore band on the planet, introduce me, because Dark Thoughts are playing like they’ve strapped rockets to their guitars. Even when they take an unexpected left turn with the acoustic Please Don’t Be Lonesome, this record still sounds like they’re kicking down a door.
From the opening chord, Highway To The End is a pop punk tornado that lifts you up, shreds your speakers, and tosses you out bruised and grinning, instantly ready for another round. Dark Thoughts’ fourth LP is a punk stunner, out now on Stupid Bag Records (US) and Drunken Sailor Records (UK/EU).
