Thoughts Like Rockets

**Thoughts Like Rockets** is a fiery post-hardcore/alternative rock outfit hailing from California, known for blending punchy, high-energy instrumentals with introspective, emotionally charged lyrics. Since emerging in the early 2010s, they’ve carved out a space with releases like the *Worlds Collide EP* and *Blast Off! EP*, which showcase their knack for anthemic hooks and chaotic-meets-catchy songwriting. Tracks like “Cardiac Fires” and “Want to Feel It Coming” highlight their signature mix of raw aggression and melodic vulnerability, while collaborations like “Broken” (featuring Michelle Moyer) add dynamic layers to their sound. Though they keep a relatively low profile, their DIY spirit and relentless live energy have earned them a dedicated following, proving they’re not afraid to launch listeners straight into the emotional stratosphere.
