New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA (1997 – present)
Thursday is a post-hardcore band from New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA that has released five full-length albums: Waiting (1999 Eyeball Records), Full Collapse (2001 Victory Records), War All the Time (2003 Island Records), A City By The Light Divided (2006 Island Records), and Common Existence (2009 Epitaph Records).
Band Formation and Waiting:
Thursday was formed in 1997 by vocalist Geoff Rickly, guitarist Tom Keeley, guitarist Bill Henderson, bassist Tim Payne, and drummer Tucker Rule. The band began playing basement shows in New Brunswick, and surrounding areas. The band played their first official show on December 31, 1998 in Rickly’s basement alongside Midtown, Saves the Day and Poison the Well.
They recorded demos to hand out at shows and in the summer of 1999 they teamed up with MP3.com for their first official release, the 1999 Tour EP which featured demos of songs that would be soon be found on their debut EP, Waiting, released December 6, 1999, on New Jersey-based Eyeball Records.
Full Collapse:
Hesitant to join a larger label, but with full support from Eyeball Records, Thursday signed to Chicago, Illinois-based label Victory Records. The band’s relationship with Victory Records would be a troubled one, as the band and the label rarely saw eye to eye. Thursday finished up their follow-up to Waiting, Full Collapse, but could not release it the way they intended; Victory Records claimed the band’s lyrics were unimportant and not worth the extra packaging. Further, Victory Records created Thursday whoopie cushions for distribution at Warped Tour, an act that infuriated the band.
