Track of the Day: Then Thickens – My Amsterdam
Glasswerk favourites Then Thickens have just announced their second album ‘Colic’ – released 23rd October 2015 via Hatch Records – and the Chorley-based band are also streaming their huge new single ‘My Amsterdam’ below.
An unassuming and frank ode to frontman Jon-Lee Martin’s home, the track erupts into a hugely atmospheric climax. Of the track, Martin says: “my home is my Amsterdam and though flawed and frustrating it’s still where I’m most comfortable. I’m not a hermit ….yet, my door is always open but I’ve found a solace in isolation that I’m truly enjoying. My Amsterdam is the triumph of imperfection.”
Colic is released 23rd October via Hatch Records, supported by the Momentum Music Fund. Momentum is managed by PRS for Music Foundation, supported using public funding by National Lottery through Arts Council England, and in association with Spotify.
