Thursday is entering the studio to records its sixth album. As one of my favorite bands, not just in the post-hardcore realm, this is pleasing news. The band's most recent tour was opening for Converge in early May.
The band will spend the next few months recording at Tarbox Road Studios in Fredonia, NY with Common Existence and A City by the Light Divided producer Dave Fridmann (MGMT, The Flaming Lips, Mogwai) and plan to release the new album in spring 2011.
"We've worked with Dave Fridmann before, but this is definitely the most we've ever clicked with him," says singer Geoff Rickly. "In style, this record feels like a radical departure from our earlier records but in substance it feels like a return. The songs are more vulnerable than they've been in a long time. Some of the song titles include "A Darker Forest" and "Little Sparks Against the Sun"... It's very atmospheric and mood oriented so far." (via MySpace)
In related news, Geoff Rickly has released a 7'' vinyl for United Nations called Nevermind the Bombings, Here's Your Six Figures via Deathwish.
