Spawning lead singles including ‘wishing coin’, ‘fleur rouge’ and its title-track, thistle. have swiftly captured the imagination of the press landscape on both sides of the Atlantic, with key champions such as Stereogum, Clash, The Line Of Best Fit, Rolling Stone UK and So Young all throwing their support behind the band, in addition to early spins across the BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music and Radio X airwaves from key tastemakers Steve Lamacq, Deb Grant and Tom Ravenscroft.

Armed with a lo-fi, introspective yet hardcore sound, having originated from a garage in Northampton, the trio are newly partnered with Venn Records, an independent label renowned for fostering some of the UK’s most boundary-pushing punk, hardcore, and alt-rock acts such as High Vis, Meryl Streak and Bob Vylan. Having also ticked off supports alongside the likes of Man / Woman / Chainsaw, as well as capacity shows at The Great Escape Festival, thistle. are primed for festival slots at the likes of Left Of The Dial in the coming months and a support run alongside Cryogeyser as they continue to cement their thrilling live reputation.
