Overview Edit

Thirst for Romance is the debut album by Cherry Ghost, released on July 9, 2007 in the UK. The album is available on CD, digital download, and double vinyl LP. It was recorded at Ape Studios in Cheshire and Moolah Rouge Studios in Stockport. The first single, "Mathematics," was released on April 9, 2007; the second single "People Help the People" was released on June 25, 2007, just two weeks ahead of the album's release date; and the third single was "4 AM," released on September 24, 2007. "Roses" was an iTunes "single of the week" for the week that the album was released. Thirst for Romance was co-produced by Simon Aldred and Dan Austin (programmer on Massive Attack's Collected bonus disc; co-producer of Doves' 2009 album Kingdom of Rust). Thirst for Romance entered the UK Albums Chart at #7 upon its first week.

Jimi Goodwin of the band Doves plays drums on "People Help the People" and "Mathematics." In December 2005, when Jimi was acting as a guest host on a BBC Radio 1 show, he featured the then-up-and-coming Cherry Ghost. Simon performed two tracks live and acoustic in the studio: "Dead Man's Suit" and "People Help the People."
