“Dark Thoughts is a Ramones band.” That’s something that frontman Jim Shomo has said, out loud, about his own band. He didn’t need to say it. It’s all right there in the band’s sound: the turbocharged melodies, the wildly economical brevity, the absolute lack of anything remotely pretentious or show-offy. The Ramones are the basic foundational influence of pretty much all American pop-punk…What makes Dark Thoughts special is the energy and vitality they bring to it.” – Stereogum
For the first time ever and after over ten years of belting out charging melodic three-chord blasters, Philly USA punks DARK THOUGHTS are making their way to Australia to play an insane show at The Tote supported by THE BLAMERS from Sydney (back again after a recent successful Melbourne weekender) and local rockers LEATHERMAN, CHECKPOINT and STREET SWEEPER.
This is the ultimate punk rock show to get you out of those winter blues!!
