If you took the Smiths and in particular Johnny Marr's fine guitar work and blended it with Samiam and recorded it at Inner Ear, the result would be Thursday.
This is a highly polished emo driven release that blurs the boundaries between indie, punk and hardcore. Thursday deliver 12 powerful cuts of choice dynamic music with melodic, emotive and slightly distressed vocals that you could mistaken easily for Kevin Seconds.
This is wonderfully melancholic with an up beat kick that makes this album a worthwhile listen. The album also has you feeling as a spectator on the process but that only serves to make it all sound more interesting.
