THE THERMALS - COMING TO AUSTRALIA

Hi, we're The Thermals.  We're a three-piece alternative/indie/punk band.  We live in Portland, Oregon.  You know, the place all your friends are moving.  So they can paint/record/do gravity bong hits, when they're not slinging lattes at one of a thousand or so coffee shops.

Anyways we are very excited to be coming to Australia in March to play some East Coast dates!!

Our record is called Now We Can See. You may have heard our singles Now We Can See and the new one We Were Sick on your local radio station. We think it's pretty good!  Pret-ty, pret-ty, pret-ty good.  Not only are the songs filled with some of our smartest lyrics and sweetest melodies, but the recording is, for us, another great leap in fidelity (you might even call it hi-fidelity), thanks to producer John Congleton (Explosions In The Sky, Polyphonic Spree), who brought massive amounts of sound and bombastic style to the project.

"An album that goes so far in proving that simplicity not only has its place, it's also often the path to unmitigated greatness."
The Onion

"Lots of bands play speedball punk rock, but The Thermals' members manage to infuse theirs with monster hooks and a surprising abundance of ideas."
NPR

"Any band that starts a song with a whoah-e-oh and then kicks into a classic indie guitar riff has got my vote. Add that they're from musical wonderland, Portland Oregon, and it's a win all round."
Zan Zowe, Triple J
