Have you seen No Half Measures: Creating the Final Season of Breaking Bad (2013)?
Yes
No
Haven’t even heard of this movie
Thursday performed in St. Louis at The Pageant on February 8, 2025.

Sappenin' Podcast - No Devotion with Geoff and Stu
How the band started and it’s the kind of music Geoff always wanted to make (The Cure/goth/British sadness, etc), but he ended up in Thursday due to what was happening around him. The band’s bad luck with shows.
They opened for Gerard Way during his solo run, and this interview happened right after Gerard sang on stage with Geoff in NJ. They mention the Kerrang award they won and how members had already started to leave the band by then.
They started recording after Geoff sent them one song with lyrics from the ones that they had sent him, and immediately after picking him up at the airport, they got him in the bedroom-studio to record (original recording is on the first album!) and he didn’t have anything else other than the one song.
At some point, Stu thought this might become Geoff’s solo album.
Thursday came back again to play the shows with My Chem, and after that, everything changed; they started to get offers for festivals, and money started to come in.
They (Thursday/My Chem) became the weird emo bands that survived because they still had something to say. They go on a lot about My Chem and Foundations, how a lot of the music nowadays sounds super clean, over-produced, and it ages badly. They were huge for releasing a song that sounds gritty, and that it was clearly recorded in their basement garage. (Geoff said so?) Stu says he went on a Facebook page with other producers and they were all talking shit about how bad Foundations sounded, and he was so surprised about how they did not get it.
They mentioned L.S.Dunes Past Lives, which was being released almost at the same time as their album, and they didn’t say that they were going to open for them in the UK, trying not to jinx things again since their previously booked tour with Cursive had to be cancelled due to Geoff’s surgery.
Geoff likes recognition in the form of praise, which makes him feel like a “good boy”.

Quick interest check… I’m thinking of putting together a zine about American post-hardcore band Thursday. Would anyone want to submit to that? Tour photos, collages, mixed media work, paintings, sculptures, most other forms of visual art, poetry, lyric essays, etc. Either totally open-ended or lightly focused on War All The Time for the 20th anniversary. Reblog something resembling a yea/yay/yes/hell yeah in the tags if you’re down so I can keep track of y’all.
You in?
YEA!!!
NAY!!!
