About this product
Contemporaries of Fontaines D. C. and The Murder Capital, Thumper are among the leading lights of the Irish scene. Over the last two years, the north Dublin six-piece have been developing their sound - and building an increasingly passionate following. They combine intense poetic lyrics with a big punky sonic assault to startling effect. While Delusions of Grandeur features plenty of homages to classic alt-rock such as Weezer, Pixies or The Dandy Warhols, it is also steeped in the influence of contemporaries such as Viagra Boys, King Gizzard, Shame and even Idles at their most psychedelic. At other points, the sheer bombastic nature of it's production recalls Irish psych alumni My Bloody Valentine on Loveless or no wave veterans Sonic Youth on Daydream Nation

On her new album, Delusion, Tempers - the musical alias of New York-based artist Jasmine Golestaneh - embarks on a non-linear journey of healing and becoming. Across ten tracks, she navigates tempestuous emotional tides, feeling her way through a fever dream of stormclouds and sunburst towards psychic clarity, creating a soundtrack for Inchthose who love too much, fall too hard, and dream too vividly.Inch The album moves comfortably across genres, from art pop to techno, grunge to metal cues, with epic balladic moments seeded throughout. Co-Produced by Golestaneh and Jorge Elbrecht, Delusion features collaborations with artists Camille Henrot, Estelle Hoy and Sandra Mujinga and is set for April 24th, 2026 on Golestaneh's own new tag fear of luxury, distributed by Cascine/Secretly.
The long-awaited reissue of Rifferama, the acclaimed debut album by Glasgow indie trailblazers Thrum. Out on Fire Records, the remaster revisits one of the most revered cult records of the 1990s UK guitar scene. The includes an exclusive download of the band's reunion show recorded live at Airdrie Town Hall in 2025, along with a new studio version of 'Hey Joe'.Originally released to critical acclaim, Rifferama captured a moment when melody, distortion and emotional urgency collided to create something timeless. Now newly remastered from the original recordings, the album returns with enhanced depth and clarity, reaffirming it's reputation as a lost classic of the era.Fronted by the unmistakable voice of Monica Queen (known for her work with Belle and Sebastian and Snow Patrol), Thrum's sound blended shimmering pop hooks with driving, fuzz-laden riffs. Alongside Johnny Smillie's distinctive guitar work, the band forged a sonic identity that stood proudly alongside the era's most influential alternative acts.This reissue is dedicated to the late great Phil Vinall, who mixed the album.
