It’s almost hard to believe it’s real life, what with a band putting out videos, getting ready to release an album and, most surreal of all, preparing to go on tour. The latter, of course, is pending further outbreaks of COVID-19 and lockdown — speaking from the disease-infested hellscape that is the United States of America, I wish them the best — but Daily Thompson have it all worked out. The whole plan. Same goes for their sound too on the new single “On My Mind,” a two-stage blues rocker that in the video below gives listeners a six-minute sampling of the kind of right-on grooves and vibe one can expect from the upcoming Oumuamua album being released next month by Noisolution.

While circumstances might make the trio playing in a room seem like a novelty — at least from my point of view; I haven’t been to a show since January — Daily Thompson‘s ease in portraying “On My Mind” speaks to the natural foundation from which their style stems. They’re steeped in classic heavy blues rock but not really a retro-minded band, instead bringing what was together with what is and forging their sonic persona from it. As guitarist Danny and bassist Mercedes come together on vocals in the song’s second half, it brings the track to a different stage of its progression  and adds to the already palpable swing and energy behind it. Like the preceding single “Sad Frank” (posted here), it also demonstrates the songwriting progression on which the band have embarked since their last outing, 2018’s Thirsty (review here).

Noisolution are taking preorders for the limited-to-1oo ‘Club 100’ edition of the album as of today, and you’ll find that link as well as more info under the video below.
