The Thrills Ready To Hit The Studio

Brace yourselves, it’s the news we’ve all been waiting for - the Thrills are about to hit the studio to record their new album! Ahem.

The Irish indie-stalwarts begin recording their next long-player in Vancouver next week and say they’ve got about 20 songs in the running.

The band are working again with Tony Hoffer who also produced ‘Let’s Bottle Bohemia.’

Conor from the band wrote: “There's almost twenty songs to fight over. It's a large figure for us. In the past we only ever had thirteen or fourteen songs to go into the studio with.

“In fact the dreaded "double album" was even mentioned for a fleeting moment (and thankfully dismissed just as quickly).”

He continued: “We have a title for the record already in mind. (In the past we always found ourselves scrambling like headless chickens for a title that would somehow sum up the mood of the album with deadlines nipping at our heels).

“This meant we could meet the art department in London to start brainstorming early over artwork and the record sleeve.

“We've always been heavily involved in this. Sometimes even to our detriment. I still get death threats over the last album cover.”
