The Thermals

[yeahwho]

How is it bands that make hokey grand statements like U2 and a whole plethora of others sell platinum while other extremely hot bands like the Thermals (http://www.thethermals.com/) wander around in obscurity?

The Thermals recently received much attention for refusing $50,000 to license a song to General Motors for use in a Hummer commercial. They received an enormous amount of positive feedback for something they did NOT do. The Thermals would like you to know that they also have not killed anyone, nor have they committed any fraud or treason, in case you would like to congratulate them for that has well.

Not spamming, just headbanging. Fucking Thermals is Sick. Click the websites player up to "Heres Your Future (http://www.thethermals.com/audio/mp3s/heres_your_future.mp3)" I've been stuck on a Pillar of Salt for months now. Daily listener.

Anybody else have a band they've been thriving on this past Winter?

Yo, is this a Seattle band? Can I go see them around sometime? I listened to the track and liked it.

Portland Oregon band that hangs out here quite a bit, they were regulars around town the last few years. They played Bumbershoot last year and a few club gigs. Now they're catching on a bit so I think the local club shows will be rare.

I've seen them twice, once at the Crocodile a few years ago and then again last year at Nuemo's .....they were sort of "eh" the first time but last years show kicked ass.

They played again in Feb of this year at the Croc.
