Editorial Reviews
On their sixth studio album, No Devolución, Thursday explores elements of post rock, indie, art and experimental styles, blending it all with their post hardcore roots for a beautifully cathartic experience unlike anything they've done before. Emotionally charged, atmospheric guitars and keyboards swirl in unison with Geoff Rickly's inimitably intense vocals, painting a powerful cinematic soundscape and grabbing hold of listeners with each twisting turn. No longer merely the "screamo" band of yore, Thursday has transcended the genre they helped to spark on No Devolución, which translates to "No Returns," an appropriate title for a band consistently moving forward.

I have been a fan of Thursday for 10 years now, I have bought all 6 of their albums and have been to several of their shows. That said I wouldn't say they are my favorite band nor have I ever given any of their albums my personal AOTY acknowledgement. Until now, No Devolucion is probably the best album I've heard in the last 5 years. It's atmospheric and richly layered, every time I listen to the album I hear something new that I didn't catch on the previous spin. I will give a warning that fans of Full Collapse who did not like ACBTLD or Common Existence may not like this album. I suggest you listen with good headphones to get the full effect.

Thursday is one of those bands that is always pushing their own musical boundaries - trying to keep the essence of their band what it has always been, while evolving into something better. On No Devolución, their sixth studio album, they aren't trying to make you happy - instead they want to challenge you to redefine what Thursday is becoming as a band; not afraid of themselves and what they are capable of.
And on this album, they manage to push themselves to the next level, because No Devolución is the band's best, and most endearing effort to date. Starting with "Fast to the End," they open the album blazing forward - and then suddenly shift gears down to "No Answers," where Rickley's lyrical abilities shine through - "I can hear the ocean when I say your name/ In the yellow hem of the sea's blue skirt."
This is an album full of fast and slow; soft singing and screaming. But in the end, it's still the same Thursday you've always loved. Now they're just better - and after a few listens you'll be nodding your head to every word.

I've always respected Thursday but haven't bought any of their records until now. This cd blew me away. It has such a great range throughout whether it be electronic tinged posthardcore ("Past and Future Ruins" and "Turnpike Divide") and lush, atmospheric post rock ("A Darker Forest"). This album has definitely lived up to the hype and I would recommend it to everyone no matter what genres they prefer and whether they've been a fan of Thursday since Full Collapse or are just discovering them.

Think Common Existence....
With ambient textures. In other words, Thursday has managed to keep its core sound intact while adding new twists to the mix. Read more

Best Thursday since Full Collapse
Full Collapse has always been my favorite.
Every release thereafter, I always hoped for something that approaches it, but was always a bit disappointed.
