THURSDAY ANNOUNCE 10th ANNIVERSARY FULL COLLAPSE US TOUR
November 11, 2010Los Angeles, CANew Jerseys volatile, experimentalist rock band Thursday will keep the tenth anniversary of their classic, groundbreaking album Full Collapse by kicking off a US go with their friends, Underoath, in January/February where the isthmus will do the celebrated book in its entirety.Tour dates will be proclaimed in the upcoming weeks.
Released in April 2001, Thursdays sophomore album, Full Collapse, pulled Thursday from the underground basement and VFW shows they were exploited to and propelled the ring to the forefront of mainstream rock with its unique melding of emotionally charged post-punk and aggressive post-hardcore.
"Full Collapse was a book that changed the line and form of my life, says singer Geoff Rickly.We began touring for it in basements and VFW halls, continued, opening for bands like the Murder City Devils and Rival Schools and ended up as a good time touring band meeting hundreds of thousands of masses with whom we formed late and lasting connections.Time passes and we embrace new medicine and different goals but, ten days later, Full Collapse continues to motivate people and for that we are really grateful. This circuit is a festivity of those times and the end of a chapter in the spirit of Thursday."
Called harshŠcatchy and simply beautiful (Punknews.org), Full Collapse opens with the ambient, calm-before-the-storm intro track A0001 before seguing into the vehicular smash hit Understanding In A Car Crash.Rickly holds nothing back as he pours his eye out about child abuse on Concealer and gnashes his teeth during the stirring tale of manifest destiny in Autobiography of a Nation.Even today, fans continue to refer to Full Collapses honest lyrics about life, finding individuality and the crushing loneliness of post-modernism. Musically, Full Collapse weaves outside the lines of standard hard stone with Steve Pedulla and Tom Keeleys innovative and dueling riffs that dim the lines between metal, hardcore, new wave and post-punk influences as heard on Cross Out the Eyes, Paris In Flames and Winding Up.From first to finish, Full Collapse stands the examination of metre and remains a relevant classic from one of the decades most groundbreaking bands.
In the ten days since the loss of Total Collapse, Thursday have gone on to publish three more fan-coveted studio albums, including 2009s Common Existence with their new label Epitaph Records.With each release the circle continues to acquire and evolve, pushing boundaries, genres, labels and categories aside.In July, the band entered the studio to start work on their sixth studio album, which will be released in 2011.
Catch Thursday performing Full Collapse live this coming January and February and stay tuned for news about Thursdays much awaited new album coming in 2011!
