photo credit: Veronica IsleyNo Thank You recently announced their new album, Embroidered Foliage, due out October 23rd from Lame-O Records, and today the band are sharing its hook-filled second single “Letter Writing Contest.” Embroidered Foliage finds the Philadelphia-based trio pushing their cathartic sound to new heights to create their boldest work to date, as evidenced by lead single “Enough” (which garnered attention from NPR, Stereogum, BrooklynVegan, and more) and “Letter Writing Contest.”
The new song begins with a playful drum machine and the distinct melodies of vocalist/guitarist Kayee Della Monica before exploding into surging guitars, distorted bass, and interwoven vocal harmonies that offer a crash course on No Thank You‘s dynamic songwriting in just over one minute

No Thank You (Della Monica along with bassist Evan Bernard and drummer Nick Holdorf) sound more powerful and confident than ever on Embroidered Foliage, with the album’s buoyant hooks and often unexpectedly heavy instrumentation offering a compliment to Della Monica’s deeply open lyrics. The album explores a period of self discovery in the wake of a tumultuous relationship as Della Monica grappled with grief and anxiety manifesting in challenging ways. And while the experiences that led to Embroidered Foliage were fraught Della Monica explains that she found something in the process: “I was likely following my usual pattern of self destruction, but what ultimately came from the introspection was of the utmost importance: a glimmer of self worth.”
Embroidered Foliage is due out October 23th.
