Geoff swinging tha microphone like it's 2001 still! Lmao

[@elliotyamamoto38]

Hahaha keep swinging that mic. This song is still amazing in 2019.

[@spencerryanlintelmann6801]

Dude is a full blown rockstar! Gotta get that energy out instead of switching it to using!!!

[@ippotsk]

I imagine him swinging too high one day and it crashes into the floor or ceiling lol. "Sorry folks, let's try that one again!"

[@TheVioletBunny]

Legend has it he’s still swinging

[@lancecamposano3633]

I like this comment hahaha It's what you call PRIME not faded!

[@eric_xmrmy3292]

This reminds me of the youth i lost……nothing like jamming Thursday with a house full of friends playing beer pong. What a time to be alive!

[@beerdsy]

Imagine the hell of not having already grown up and trying to be a kid now tho bud

[@eric_xmrmy3292]

Agreed. It’s deff a different time!!

[@Wussel_Restbrook]

incredibly jealous, would have loved to have friends to listen to thursday with while playing beer pong! such a sick band

[@rogerbenjamin3396]

you just took me back... those were the days

[@danevandenheuvel321]

I saw Thursday and Every Time I Die basically in a warehouse with a dirt floor in 2003 and they rocked it so hard. I still listen to Full Collapse at least once a week and have since I was a Junior in HS in 2001. They are an amazing band.

[@jimmygee3219]

Dane Vanden Heuvel damn you got the record two years early?!

[@danevandenheuvel321]

@@jimmygee3219 Crap, i had to do some quick math lol. I was a freshman 98-99, it WAS 2001 when I was a junior. I was sure I was a junior but got the year wrong...

[@IAMFISH92]

This band was one of the first bands that inspired me to write music. Such nostalgia.

[@terryah2136]

I never heard of Thursday until Geoff joined up with the ex Lostprophets guys to form No Devotion. They were never played on the radio or TV here. Yet I feel as if I missed out on a lot because they are absolutely incredible. Gawd I wish I knew about them in the 00's!

[@MrCartierG]

This song will always mean something to me. I thank you for it.

[@joseangelurribarri3773]

Thursday will stay forever in my playlist!!!!

[@GnarStark]

Damn it sounds so good live too 😢

[@bluepinkman4785]

Call them emo or whatever, they made this classic song. Great post hardcore band.

[@petercartwright5303]

Love it takes me back to 2001! This song/album came out shortly after losing a close friend in a horrible accident and i still to this day go right back there in time in my mind everytime I hear it! Not just that negative sad memory but a reminder of all the good times I spent with this friend growing up together! Great song and anyone who knows it I’m sure can somewhat relate to what I am trying to say, take care everyone!

[@zedwid3017]

Never knew Rusell Crowe sang backing vocals in this band

I thought this was just a small dinky field show until I saw 0:57. Really glad to see these guys can still play to a sea of people nearly 20 years later.

[@averagegatsby]

I've seen this band a whole bunch of times, and I'm about to see them again tomorrow and I'm so mother effing fucking excited!

[@betterwithnate1653]

If you’re watching this in 2021,you’re a legend.

[@RossKnows]

No album will ever top Full Collapse. You want to talk about a band that was on the forefront of a movement, look no further. No doubt nostalgia is inextricable from our opinions, but this band nailed it before many others and were bridge builders....that being said partying on division street in college myself and “dying in New Brunswick” on a nightly basis is the nail in the coffin.

[@cmillertime7477]

Agreed, but Thursday was much more than being "on the forefront of a movement." That's great and all, sure, but won't stand the test of time on its own. Where Thursday accomplishes that is in the incredibly poetic lyrics and the perfect music to evoke the right emotions backing them up. This band could have done *any* genre and become a treasure.

[@AlmostaFlipinSkater]

This might be unpopular, but I think War All the Time is slightly better.

[@I_am_Jordan_K]

In my mind, the evolution is: The Shape of Punk to Come -> Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Silence -> Relationship of Command -> Full Collapse -> Illusion of Safety -> Alexisonfire -> Translating the Name, with Thursday being one of the first bands to really start off with that style, instead of starting off as traditional punk and eventually evolving into it.

[@evo7836]

This is facts. I was a full collapse fan at at lauch. Listened to everyone subsequent album afterwards and wasnt impressed. 10 years later listened to all post Full Collapse albums and they still dont compare.

[@fadedsun303]

I think War All the Time topped it by a large margin, honestly. Their song writing, and sound matured exponentially between that time. Full Collapse is a fantastic nostalgia listen, but when I look back on it, I can see why teenage me was blown away, and why adult me can find the flaws I never noticed. That screaming at the end of "Cross Out the Eyes" makes me cringe now, honestly haha. I return to War a lot more overall, and certain songs of Full Collapse.

[@renderedinoperable]

They can still jam

[@Branchofsin]

Love this band forever♡

Anyone else notice that the guitar sounds like an ambulance siren at some points? Like its responding to a car crash?

[@staylucky4727]

I never noticed that but damn you right

[@six6nix587]

Pumped to see them next week !!!!!

[@Trucker_Michiel]

This version is better than the original recording. The way they're tired, seem to lose the song, pick it up again.. AMAZING. since they never done a show in Europe never got a chance to see them preform on stage.. a shame.

[@adaptive_taste]

They've NEVER played in Europe?? Damn i didn't now this . Really a shame, like u said

[@Trucker_Michiel]

@@adaptive_taste nope, for as far as I know they never did a tour over here..

Fucking Geoff is a maniac! Love these guys and was so hyped I got to meet them at the Starland in Jersey. Great guys and they even played us songs from A City By Light Divided before it ever came out. Best concert I ever saw.

[@huntingsynth]

Thursday and Heavy Jersey barrels in the winter…yup

[@Iskaral_Pust]

I love this song and consider it a masterpiece in its genre. The hard truth though is that these bands (including bands like Taking Back Sunday, Brand New etc) were never really great live.

[@francolopez8283]

Michael Ryan your kidding right... brand new is awesome live!

[@ConArdist]

Best album is A City by the Light Divided. I don't find War All the Time all that special. Last three albums are the best.

[@copsarebastards]

yeah I wish they played more recent stuff from the recent shows, but I understand why they didn't. I love it's mature sound and cerebral lyrics. It's much more mature, and it grew with me.

[@JamesKramer1684]

I disagree, It's between Full Collapse or Waiting. City By The Light Divided was an ok album. War All The Time wasnt horrible but wasnt great at the same time.

[@davidanderson7643]

No Devolucion is right next to Full Collapse for me. Sparks Against The Sun is a fuckin banger.

[@davidanderson7643]

A City By The Light and the one after were their worst but they finished so fucking strong with No Devolucion.

[@bL3dbL4k]

I'm the exact opposite. First 3 albums are their best.. Waiting, Full Collapse, War All The Time.

[@ranshootcbc9953]

what about your dad? my daddy still emo

[@fadedsun303]

They upped the tempo too much here. I want to like Thursday live, but I can't find a performance that has ever wowed me. I remember finding a live performance of War All the Time, and Geoff was so out of key that I couldn't continue listening. If anyone has any good live suggestions, let me know.

[@youhavetogoback8449]

You have to listen to them in person. They play so damn loud that it makes the recordings of all the videos online sound shitty, and thin. Their full live album versions of Full Collapse and War All the Time on spotify sound way closer to real life.

[@jayscott9670]

Riot 2020 music

[@skeight976]

OPEN up the LENS and cant stop...

[@jreschke5]

It’s a little fast

[@mskcrc]

it must be really weird to be playing adolescent post-hardcore/emo into your 40s

[@metalmacabre9991]

These guys weren't played on the radio or had much exposure because they weren't some watered down pvssy band. I don't judge how good a band is by radio play or sales, because thats not what makes a band great, if it was then Justin beiber, and all those other crappy pop stars would be great. Lol

[@hollowify_tensa_zangetsu]

Haha love the intro. I HATE HATE HATE emo. I think it killed rock. It destroyed what I loved about music. But there are some guilty pleasure emo songs. This song isn't a guilty pleasure. I like this with no adjectives

[@genericwhitemale1114]
