Indie rock band The Thermals shared "Spirit Collectors" today -- the first glimpse at the upcoming Under Crushing Rain, their first album in a dacade.
The band last released We Disappear in 2016.
"I set out to make an LP that was incredibly Thermals-like, in the same fashion in which I made More Parts Per Million: quickly, and by myself. Though not as no-fi as the first Thermals LP, it definitely has been made in the same spirit; It is fast, cheap, and totally in control. Produced in my own studio (Brainwash) and released on my own label (Static Catsup Aspic), I believe it is a fine addition to The Thermals’ catalog. For people asking—rightly so— “WHERE IS KATHY?” I kindly answer “SHE’S RIGHT HERE, sitting next to me working hard on the layout for the LP, as I write this.” Not only did I have Kathy’s blessing to make a Thermals LP, I had her help as well," Hutch Harris says of the new record, created mostly solo.
