"Pressing punk full of first-blush awakenings and fiery complaints" as described by The New York TImes. THICK pumps out high-energy girlwave anthems. The trio (Nikki Sisti, Shari Page, Kate Black) balances chorused chants with big hooks and lilting harmonies, drawing from the Riot Grrrls of the '90s and your favorite Blink-182 pop-punk jams. Honest and straightforward, the band's beer-soaked tunes are as infectious as their "I'm going to be myself and you can't stop me" attitudes.
