It&#8217;s raw, it\u2019s emotional, it\u2019s chaotic in all the right ways\u2014and it\u2019s available to pre-save now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This debut isn\u2019t just a collection of songs\u2014it\u2019s a full-body exorcism. Produced by grayskies (d4vd, Wisp) and mixed by Mike Crossey (The 1975, Arctic Monkeys),&nbsp;\u2018The Sound of You Laughing\u2019 captures the electric push and pull between vulnerability and volatility. ThxSoMch wrote and recorded the album during a seven-month escape to Brazil, ditching distractions, ditching English, ditching time itself\u2014just him, grayskies, and the music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201c<em>It put me in the best mental place I\u2019ve been in for a long time,\u201d<\/em> he says. \u201c<em>No phone, no sense of time\u2014just flow. Creating this was like a cigarette after a long craving. I hope it can be that for someone else too. It\u2019s the sound of acceptance. Of mockery and coping. Choking and surviving.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The result? A record that blurs the line between alt rock, post-punk, emo, and SoundCloud-era rap. It\u2019s catchy but disorienting, comforting but confrontational. And it goes hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>New Single: <em>Sound of You Laughing<\/em> (feat. Flawed Mangoes)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside the album announcement, ThxSoMch dropped a stunner of a single,&nbsp;<em>Sound of You Laughing<\/em>. Built around a hypnotic guitar riff from Flawed Mangoes and finished off with drums by LMG, the track came together fast\u2014and naturally. Thx freestyled most of it in one take, driven by instinct and emotion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI recorded it the next day and couldn\u2019t stop listening to it,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s both comfort and discomfort.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wonderland Magazine nailed it, calling it a \u201c<em>sad boi banger<\/em>\u201d with \u201c<em>snappy, emotive vocals and heady, guitar-led instrumentation.<\/em>\u201d Basically, it hits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The official video is equally powerful. Shot backwards and built around the feeling of flipping through old playground photos, it nails the weird ache of nostalgia. Director Tommy Kiljoy said it best: \u201c<em>We wanted to bottle up that liminal feeling\u2014the soft dread of memory. I\u2019m genuinely so in love with how it turned out.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9Ig_nQCJs9c?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-CA&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Sound of You Laughing<\/strong><br>Out August 29 on Atlantic Records<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5198.jpeg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"855\" height=\"863\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5198.jpeg?resize=855%2C863&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"The Sound Of You Laughing ThxSoMuch cover artwork\" class=\"wp-image-43479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5198.jpeg?w=855 855w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5198.jpeg?resize=297%2C300 297w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5198.jpeg?resize=150%2C150 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5198.jpeg?resize=768%2C775 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 855px) 100vw, 855px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Pre-save <a href=\"https:\/\/thxsomch.lnk.to\/tsoyl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">available now<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Tour Is Coming: North America and Europe This Fall<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ThxSoMch isn\u2019t just dropping an album\u2014he\u2019s taking it on the road.

That track alone racked up over 672 million Spotify streams and landed on the Billboard Hot 100, setting the stage for a career that\u2019s been anything but predictable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But he\u2019s never been one to chase trends. His music is messy and real\u2014genre-bending, emotionally charged, and sharply self-aware. He blends the angst of \u201890s alt rock with the lo-fi grit of 2000s internet rap and the dark pop instincts of a kid who\u2019s seen too much, felt even more, and somehow turned it all into anthems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Disappearing to Brazil only sharpened his vision. With over a billion career streams and three tracks clocking over 100 million each, ThxSoMch is redefining what punk, pop, and pain can sound like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-default\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned. ThxSoMch isn\u2019t done.
