Description

The Thrill of It All is the fourth studio album by English hard rock band Thunder. Recorded between April and May 1996 at Rockfield Studios in Monmouth, Wales, it was produced the band's lead guitarist Luke Morley and mixed by Rupert Coulson at London's Trident 2. The album was initially released in Japan by Victor Entertainment on 1 September 1996, with the European release by Castle Communications (under the band's B Lucky sub-label) following on 2 February 1997. Unlike they did on Laughing on Judgement Day and Behind Closed Doors, Thunder vocalist Danny Bowes and second guitarist Ben Matthews did not contribute to songwriting on The Thrill of It All – all songs were written primarily by main songwriter Morley, with drummer Gary "Harry" James co-writing four tracks. Due to personal reasons which eventually led to his departure in the summer of 1996, bassist Mikael "Micke" Höglund did not perform on the album, with all bass recorded by Morley. The Thrill of It All reached number 14 on the UK Albums Chart and number 5 on the UK Rock & Metal Albums Chart. The band promoted the album on tour throughout early 1997, with shows in Japan, the UK and Europe between January and May. Two singles were released from The Thrill of It All – "Don't Wait Up" and "Love Worth Dying For" peaked at number 27 and number 60 on the UK Singles Chart, and number 2 and number 3 on the UK Rock & Metal Singles Chart, respectively.
