Thoughts and Prayers is the ninth studio album by the Santa Cruz, California-based hardcore punk band Good Riddance, released July 19, 2019 through Fat Wreck Chords.

Unlike previous albums which featured some musical writing contribution from Luke Pabich and Chuck Platt, Thoughts and Prayers was solely written by frontman Russ Rankin.

Four years later, on May 16, 2019, the band announced the upcoming release of a new studio album titled Thoughts and Prayers on Instagram.

However, the review criticizes Good Riddance for their tendency to "[lack] originality compared to what some of their peers are doing," while also praising the band for [making] up for it in terms of the message conveyed with Russ Rankin's lyrics, the song writing and the musicianship.

Monger also points out that some songs do not deviate far from the band's "winning blend of melody and might, but there is an urgency to the new material that speaks to both the current zeitgeist and the pioneering and uncompromising spirit of punk rock.
