Daily Thompson

GLUE (release 21st August) is the finest expression yet of the profound friendships that created Daily Thompson. Here the band finally find their place in alternative/grunge and indie rock. It feels like the band get their sound together as they always wanted it. Inspired by bands like Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., Alice In Chains, The Smashing Pumpkins, they created their vision of the 90ies Seattle sound, heavily influenced by the grunge scene, the songs on GLUE are known for massive, fuzzy, distorted guitars, melodic hooks and the signature vocals from both sides, this is the first time Mercedes sings the lead vocals for an entire song. But GLUE also contains songs like “Chains“, “SIAM“ or “Here I Stand“ that are dedicated to the actual grunge sound. The album creates a significant sonic connection through shared loud, heavy indie/alt-rock DNA. Like the American alternative rock scene that informed Seattle, bringing loud, feedback-drenched guitar back to indie rock years before grunge exploded. The band recorded the album in January 2026 in Seattle USA at APL recording again with Tony Reed. Their last album, Chuparosa, was met with critical acclaim, that is why the band returned to Seattle to record GLUE with Reed as producer and guest musician. The bands seventh studio album showcases Daily Thompson at the peak of their powers - grungy, effervescent, as confident as they’ve ever been and more emotional than ever before.
