Welcome to our 'Official Website' Thinking Plague News
Thinking Plague has finished recording a new CD, entitled "Decline and Fall", the 6th studio album by the band.
The CD was mixed by Bob Drake and Mike Johnson in the fall of 2011, and will be officially released by Cuneiform in
January 2012.
Meanwhile, Thinking Plague (with sister band Hamster Theatre) recently completed a "mini-tour", which included successful shows at the Cuneifest in Baltimore and The Stone in New York
as well as a show and an interactive "living room" concert in Philadelphia. Bob Drake recently uncovered some gems from the vault. A bit of audio history...

Upon Both Your Houses (Thinking Plague live in concert at NEARFest 2000) is now available from NEARFest Records
"A stunning document of Rock-In-Opposition at its finest. Thinking Plague delivers a commanding set of highly technical and challenging, yet melodic compositions in a manner that must be heard to believe. The masterful musicianship displayed by this sextet is exquisite. They draw from obvious progressive rock sources, but refuse to merely relive the 70's as they push their unique brand of music forward." A History of Madness, Thinking Plague's latest studio album, is currently available from Cuneiform Records
"If you thought prog rock and concept albums were a thing of the past, Thinking Plague is here to prove you wrong. And if you thought prog rock had to be terminally self-indulgent and concept albums a pretentious waste of time, they're here to prove you even more wrong. Sounding something like a Henry Cow for the digital age, on A History of Madness Thinking Plague lays down some of the most rhythmically complex, texturally inventive, and melodically challenging popular music of the last 30 years, and somehow makes it all sound easy and natural."
