Against the backdrop of an international economic collapse – that led to the nationalisation of the Irish banking system, a period of prolonged austerity and a re-alignment of established political thinking – The Thrills just sounded utterly out of time. Personally speaking, I thought they had a bit more gas in the tank and were maybe finding their feet, but … Great article. And thanks for saying so. And, for as long as they were active on a major label, provided a welcome antidote to many of the more monochrome Dublin outfits who’d gone before them.And all of these outfits shared sharp, finely-tuned pop sensibilities, as well as a decent command of the short form.
Led by Conor Deasy, the band’s unconscionably good-looking and hirsute lead singer and their heartbeat and pulse, bass-player and guitarist Daniel Ryan, The Thrills’ debut album, ‘So Much For The City’ became, for many, a free-wheeling national soundtrack of sorts after its release in 2002. No More Empty Words. Lyrically, especially, they could be unforgivably naïve, while Conor was never the most gifted singer :- he had a limited vocal range at the best of times and, live, he often struggled to tip the top end. Big Sur (as Deasy) AZLyrics. AZLyrics. In the meantime, we’re left with three albums on a major label, decent commercial headway and a series of paper-thin stereotypes and crudely formed generalisations for our troubles.The short history of the band can be read, on one level, as the parable of the Irish state between 2002 and 2008. For better and for worse – and there are many who scored them way down for it – there isn’t a hint of malice in anything they’ve ever committed to tape.Dublin bands at a particular level have traditionally been photographed either on local beaches, against grainy, industrial back-drops or inside their rehearsal spaces, where they’ve routinely looked either frozen, scared, po-faced and often a combination of all three.
The Thrills are an Irish indie rock band, formed in 2001 in Dublin. I'm So Sorry. This Year. T. The Thrills Lyrics. The one thing i’m a bit sticky with is the Snow Patrol comparison in terms of how the thrills were getting the criticism at the time.
Like many others all over the country they were made redundant almost over-night.But on record they’d developed a second skin and it’s a real shame that, just as they’d started to incorporate some of the more interesting aspects of the R.E.M.

Colm.Article is a nice read, and fills in a few blank in my memory of them. Just as easy to lampoon was the shameless thievery that characterised their sound, had the country’s comedy writers bothered to root around under the bonnet.Well-read students of popular music history, The Thrills borrowed freely and to good effect.
Show me your Amazon, Spotify and Twitter history and I’ll tell you who you are, what you’re thinking and who I think you should be, basically.Maybe it’s always been thus and the growth of the internet has just made it easier to join the dots and to compartmentalise ?
