Thumper - Ad Nauseam
Thumper are living up their name by shaking 2020 to the ground with their new single ‘Ad Nauseam’.
This might six-piece are the latest product of the booming Irish punk movement, with the Dublin outfit really putting the grind in throughout 2019 to earn them the coveted spot of being Eurosonic’s top pick of 2020.
The sextet are certainly looking to exceed the expectations that are being for them, Thumper are looking to do that with their high octane, energetic live shows. The Irish outfit have just rounded out their biggest UK headline tour to date and are already gearing up for another busy summer on the European festival circuit.
‘Ad Nauseam’ is certainly the band’s most lively release to date, with the entire 218 seconds leaving you gasping for every breath as your hit with pounding bass lines and punchy guitars. Despite the noise, ‘Ad Nauseam’ certainly has more meaning with it being a cautionary tale of “repetition” and dealing with the never-ending horror show that is the “echo chamber of ego”. ‘Ad Nauseam’ is as infectious as it is thought provoking and is a great steppingstone into a very big year for Thumper.
‘Ad Nauseam’, the brand-new single from Thumper is available now on all major streaming platforms.
