If you haven’t heard of The Thermals don’t worry, they are a new band to me too. After listening too the 4 songs they have on Myspace, I was hooked by their thought provoking lyrics and upbeat rock sound.
The Thermals are a 3 piece band, Kathy Foster, Hutch Harris, and Westin Glass, with a 5 piece band sound. Many bands are trying to stay in the forefront of music by going with a 5, 7, or 9 piece band, but the Thermals stay true and rock the classic 3 piece style.
Without a doubt, this is one of the best bands to arrive this decade. Just check out this lyrics excerpt from “Now We Can See” and then watch the video.
Now we can see
The warnings and the signs
Reading between the lines
like writing on the wall
Now we can see
What do we need
We should need nothing
Nothing at all
Yeaaah!
