Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Thursday were an Alternative Rock band from New Brunswick, New Jersey. They were one of the forefathers and Trope Makers of the 2000s Emo scene, credited for influencing many bands and bringing the emotive hardcore genre into the 21st Century. They would later switch to a more Alternative Rock sound with a bit of Shoegazing and Post-Rock elements while keeping what would be their distinct sound. They unfortunately have broken up as of 2011, after releasing No Devolución.After splitting ways, members have joined other side projects while Geoff Rickly has toured solo (with some help from backing members and friends). He released his first mixtape (read: EP) in November 2012, continued making music with his hardcore/powerviolence outfit United Nations and is now the lead singer of No Devotion, formed with the members of Lostprophets who are not pedophiles.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The band reunited in 2016 as part of an effort to repair their friendship after their previous split, before amicably breaking up again in 2019 after a long tour, though Geoff has left the door open for more shows due to international fans complaining that they didn't tour outside North America. Members: Geoff Rickly - vocals Steve Pedulla - guitar Tom Keeley - guitar Tim Payne - bass guitar Tucker Rule - drums Andrew Everling - keyboards (post-War All the Time)Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) Studio Albums: Waiting (1999) Full Collapse (2001) War All the Time (2003) A City by the Light Divided (2006) Common Existence (2009) No Devolución (2011)Everything Else: Five Stories Falling (EP, 2002) Kill the House Lights (Rarities compilation, 2007) Thursday/Envy Split (EP 2008)

Literary Allusion Title: The band, consisting of literature fans, has a lot of references in their lyrics. One of them, War All the Time is named after a Charles Bukowski poem.

 Thursday (Music) / int_6d332aea

Driven to Suicide: Some of their lyrics revolve around the concept of suicide, and their experiences with loved ones who fell to this. One line in "War All the Time" talks about one of their friend's older brother who fell off a cliff.

Spoken Word in Music: Geoff loves to do this a lot. One of many examples in "Paris In Flames": Waiting's closing track "Where the Circle Ends" is just Geoff rehearsing a long poem set to the rest of the band playing.

Joisey: The band is from New Brunswick. As you can tell from their lyrics, they're not very fond of their hometown. Especially evident in "Dying in New Brunswick" and "Counting 5-4-3-2-1".

Shout-Out: The band, big fans of Joy Division, have made many allusions to the band, naming one of their early songs after their iconic vocalist, "Ian Curtis". Also, "Love Has Led Us Astray". The line "the needle and the damage done" in "Understanding In a Car Crash".

Cover Version: They had quite a few, including Negative Approach's "Evacuate", Buzzcocks' "Ever Fallen In Love" among others. And with his solo tour, Geoff has covered Bruce Springsteen's "Atlantic City" and, bizarrely, Usher's "Climax" acoustic. The latter also appears on his mixtape.
