Vegyn / HEADACHE
Thank You For Almost Everything
Thank You For Almost Everything is the sophomore album for Headache, a collaboration between writer and poet Francis Hornsby Clark and music-producer Joseph Thornalley aka Vegyn. This new album follows on the surprise underground success of their debut: The Head Hurts But The Heart Knows The Truth (released 31 May 2023) releasing on Vegyn’s own PLZ Make It Ruins label.The debut record has streamed over 19.4 million times on Spotify alone and sold over 8,000 physical copies worldwide. The debut gained its popularity entirely organically with zero marketing or PR spend. Since its release, Headache has built a dedicated global fanbase, with several fans even going so far as to get lyrics or the project’s logo tattooed on themselves.Thank You For Almost Everything continues the original’s distinct style of Trip-Hop / Downtempo Electronica but combining with its own unique (and now imitated) AI-voiced spoken word. For this new album, Headache steps away from the hum-drum of Blighty and instead focuses his gaze to sunnier shores. Recalling personal histories of ruffled hair and school cafeterias, ancient unsolved Albionic riddles, Rome’s changing seasons and its poignant graffiti, arguments with girlfriends at luxury hotel beachfront restaurants, and what it truly feels like to be alive in this inscrutable but beautiful world.The project features a further collaboration with artist Cali Thornhill DeWitt who returns to design the packaging and cover for this new album. This double 12” vinyl release, like the first, includes the instrumental versions exclusive to the vinyl version. PLZ is also producing a very limited run of 1,000 silver disc colour variants exclusively for Rough Trade (USA & UK), Big Love Records (Japan) and the PLZ Make It Ruins D2C Store.The album, mixed and mastered by Margo Broom at RAK Studios, will use the same surprise drop strategy as the first, with both digital and vinyl releases scheduled for the 17th of October 2025 and with in-person record signing at Big Love Records in Tokyo, Japan commencing on the 18th. Leading up to the release Headache will debut a new performance at Bali, Indonesia’s Klymax Discoteque. The duo intend for more performances to follow in Q3 2026.
