Common Thread (1990) |
Thanks LIVE (1990) |
Common Thread is the third studio album by Spermbirds – a hardcore punk band from Germany. It was released on X-Mist Records in 1990 and follows 1987's Nothing Is Easy. Also, in the same year, came a live album entitled Thanks, which was released on We Bite Records.
Due to vocalist Lee Hollis' American descent, all lyrics were written by him and sung in English – which also helped them break into a wider European and American audience.
The album was rereleased on Boss Tuneage in 2006 with 3 bonus tracks as a digipack CD and a Picture Disc LP.
