Thursday Live Preview: 1/30, Concord Music Hall, Chicago

Thursday at Riot Fest 2023

BY JORDAN MAINZER

Tonight at Concord Music Hall, New Jersey emo rockers Thursday perform their third album, War All The Time, in full. The 2003 record was their Island debut following a bumpy exit from Victory, and it was their first album to feature keyboardist Andrew Everding (who would become a full-time member and remain in the band for 15+ years). It was also a triumphant effort that emerged despite massive personal life changes for the band members--marriages, deaths--and writer's block. Stylistically, though it's certainly a post-hardcore album, it notably introduced the post-rock builds of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Mogwai, and especially Sigur Rós, the last of whose live show directly contributed to the noisy backbone of "Division St." (Thursday would later pay tribute by covering "Ný batterí" for a bonus track on the Japanese version of War All The Time.) Most importantly, it stands the test of time: Geoff Rickly's anxieties about all-consuming capitalism ("For the Workforce, Drowning"), identity ("Signals Over the Air"), and the military industrial complex ("This Song Brought to You by a Falling Bomb") are political because they're personal, honest assessments both biographical and thoughtful.

Many of the songs on War All The Time have a consistent place in Thursday's setlists, from "Signals" to the twinkly, yet sharp title track, whose influence you can hear in bands forming just around that time like La Dispute. The band has also played the record in full before, but if you've never been to the album show and are curious how it may sound, Thursday did digitally release a performance of War All The Time in 2022. Listening to it, a couple things stand out. First, playing the album allows the band to revisit the second half of the album that they admittedly didn't appreciate as much at the time and haven't played a ton. You can hear the crowd relishing every moment, singing along to "Marches and Maneuvers", "Falling Bomb", and the title track. Second, the opportunity to play the record allows Rickly to re-contextualize the songs and share what they mean to him today. He dedicates "Division St." and the title track to New Jersey kids and those who have been there from the beginning, perhaps growing and changing along with the band itself. He explains "Signals Over the Air"--which I've seen him previously describe as about men beating up on women in mosh pits--as a song about feeling the need to perform based on society's expectations of you. Similar and touching is "M. Shepard", certainly based on Matthew Shepard, who was murdered for being gay, and which famously interpolates words from Shepard's father. Around the time the album came out, Rickly said it was about about a friend afraid to come out of the closet, but these days, Rickly decries Shepard's lack of agency: That he's merely a symbol of hate and hate crimes takes away from his life and, in Rickly's words, "what kind of person he [might have turned] into."

After playing War All The Time, Thursday should end the night with a few highlights from their discography. NYC post-hardcore legends Rival Schools and MANY EYES (the new band of former Every Time I Die singer Keith Buckley) open. Doors at 6:00 PM, show at 7. Tickets still available at time of publication.

Lol remembering the time I went to a Hawthorne Heights concert when I was fourteen and this dude with Victory Records thought I looked cool so he gave me, like, fifteen sample CDs featuring a bunch of bands from the label to hand out to my friends.

Like I had friends!

Top: We can't go back anymore, 'cause there's nothing left. Middle: Alright, we've gotta get to the next one. Bottom: If you're in a pinch, why don't I lend you a hand?

As always, friendly disclaimer that my Japanese isn’t the best, as I’m still learning. If you spot a mistake, please let me know, and I’ll fix it!
