Since frst forming in 2014, New York trio THICK have triumphed at turning the harshest truths into wildly exhilarating punk songs

On their second album Happy Now, vocalist/guitarist Nikki Sisti, vocalist/bassist Kate Black, and vocalist/ drummer Shari Page deliver their most complex and confessional work yet, exploring everything from self-sabotage and insecurity to victim-blaming and destructive relationships. Raw, irreverent, and brutally honest, Happy Now ultimately offers both joyful catharsis and much-needed instruction for living well in turbulent times.The follow-up to 5 Years Behind (a 2020 release praised by Under the Rader as a "dazzling debut album…laced with anger, humor, killer guitar riffs, and soaring punk melodies"), Happy Now fnds THICK working again with producer Joel Hamilton (Iggy Pop, Juiceboxxx) and recording at Studio G Brooklyn. In a profound evolution of their previous work, the 11-track album encompasses sharper arrangements and stickier hooks and a more explosive energy — an effect often achieved through the sheer force of their three voices singing in unstoppable unison.
