They've pretty much been a secret up until now, but United Nations, a supergroup formed by Thursday frontman Geoff Rickly, have already recorded two albums, an EP and a seven-inch of material. Click "more" below before August 28 to hear a stream of their first full record, which comes out September 9 on Eyeball Records.
Since Thursday have been between label deals, Rickly had the freedom to launch a side project without any hassles. Some of his band members haven't been as lucky, which is why United Nations have been relatively hush-hush about their activities. However, a source close to the band confirms that the group also features Glassjaw and Head Automatica frontman Daryl Palumbo, Converge drummer Ben Koller, ex-The Number 12 Looks Like You drummer Christopher "Chree" Conger and Made out of Babies bassist Cooper.
