Biography:
The Thermals were a pop-punk trio from Portland, Oregon. The band was formed in 2002 and released seven records and toured at least fifteen countries.
The Thermals' sixth LP and debut for Saddle Creek, Desperate Ground, was produced by John Agnello (Dinosaur Jr, Sonic Youth) in Hoboken, NJ. Agnello and The Thermals completed the record and evacuated the studio just hours before Hurricane Sandy ravaged New Jersey, a fate quite fitting when you consider the product.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Some of the riff chords are played a little higher on the neck than the lyrical parts,
and so there's
different Sounding chords that are still technically the same just not played the same.
Hopefully this will help you understand.

Also, when you transition out of D5 and riff G5, to get that extra little accent in the
song, you play the
power chord with your ring ringer just behind your pinky on the G string instead of the
B string.
This allows you to pull off with your pinky on the last strum of the chord, and get that
little note of
difference.

(This is a variation of the riff and harder to put into chords so for once I'll actually
tab something)
