Rising Toronto-based artist ThxSoMch has released his new single “Waste My Mind” via Elektra. Arriving alongside a visualizer, which can be seen now below, the track maintains the momentum of ThxSoMch’s critically acclaimed debut EP Sleez, which was released last month. On the track, ThxSoMch layers evocative vocals atop fuzzed-out shoegaze guitars, awash in grainy feedback. Bleeding raw emotion, the chorus resounds, “Can you waste my mind dear? Can’t believe you’re mine still.” Listen to it now below.
Offering a rare glimpse into his creative process, ThxSoMch recently sat down for his first official interview. The enigmatic artist spoke to Genius as part of the platform’s coveted Verified series to discuss Sleez’s breakout hit single “SPIT IN MY FACE!”. The propulsive track has already amassed over 330 million streams, charted on the Billboard Hot 100, and appeared on countless marquee playlists across streaming platforms.
Across Sleez, ThxSoMch effortlessly blurs the angst of 90s alternative with the raw energy of 2000s SoundCloud rap, presenting each track alongside an equally striking visual. ThxSoMch set the stage for Sleez with the release of early singles/videos “Hate.”, “Keep It Tucked”, “Caroline”, and “Crumbled”. Following the EP’s release, he unveiled official videos for “Swap Places” and “Vile”.
ThxSoMch is gearing up to make his eagerly anticipated live debut on the upcoming Sleez World Tour. The eight-city trek will kick off on September 3 in Vienna, Austria, visit major markets across Europe and the US, and wrap on September 21 in Chicago, IL. Check out the tour’s full itinerary below.
