THAO returns with 'Sick of the Times', the politically charged opening statement from her forthcoming album 'Show Me'. Arriving six years after her previous studio record, the song finds Thao Nguyen confronting a world that continues generating fresh reasons to switch off the news and stare thoughtfully at a wall. The track retains her sharp rhythmic instincts and conversational songwriting while carrying the urgency of somebody who has run out of polite ways to describe the situation.
'Show Me' will feature contributions from Neko Case, Adrian Quesada, Tune-Yards and The Linda Lindas, suggesting an album shaped by collaboration without losing THAO’s unmistakable voice. Personal change and wider political frustration appear ready to share the same crowded room. The times may be exhausting, but at least the chorus has arrived prepared. Explore more indie rock news.
