Thermals Coming in May

The Thermals are coming back to the Beachland on May 1st! I had such a great time seeing them live back in 2007 that I'll definitely be back for this show. Also keep an eye out for their new album on April 7th.

Hope you've been exercising those sing-along muscles

It's never a bad idea to go see the Thermals. Five years ago, I saw the Portland ragers play a converted auto body shop in Baltimore with the Hold Steady opening, and they wrecked. They're playing slightly larger venues these days, but it's safe to say that they will bring the same bouncing-off-walls basement-punk energy and accidentally-spitting-on-mics urgency to every show on their huge North American tour this spring.

Bands generally don't book gigantic cross-continental odysseys for no reason, so you probably won't be surprised to learn that the Thermals have an album coming out. On April 7, their new label Kill Rock Stars will release Now We Can See, their fourth full-length. And on April 18, Record Store Day, the Thermals and KRS labelmates Thao With the Get Down Stay Down will release a limited-run split 7" that you can only get at independent record...
