Tx2

Fort Collins, CO · 2022–present · active
Tx2 is built around Evan Thomas's blunt, theatrical version of emo-pop punk, where confessional writing, social-media-era provocation, and glossy alternative rock production collide. The project grew from a solo identity into a full band sound, with clipped hooks, compressed guitars, chantable choruses, and vocals that often move between bratty sneer, rap-influenced cadence, and shouted release. Songs such as "I Would Hate Me Too" made the project's volatility part of the appeal, turning self-loathing, alienation, sexuality, and online hostility into compact rock anthems. Ghost of LA sharpened the storytelling side, framing personal rupture and Los Angeles disillusionment through darker, more cinematic pop punk. Later material pulls in heavier guitars, electronic impact, and collaborations from the surrounding alternative scene, but the core remains direct emotional confrontation rather than technical display. Tx2's music is intentionally divisive: loud, self-aware, melodramatic, and built for fans who hear internet backlash and identity crisis as fuel for a chorus.
