Thread is the second studio album by American rock band Red Sun Rising.
On March 6, 2018, the band was announced alongside the Fever 333 as opening acts to the Used's spring tour supporting their seventh album The Canyon, beginning with Jacksonville, Florida's Welcome to Rockville festival and finishing at Pryor, Oklahoma's Rocklahoma festival.
Jay H. Goriana from Blabbermouth.net gave the band credit for expanding their sound by creating "soothing, feel good alt rock songs" with a more polished production while also displaying their darker side on tracks like "Evil Like You" and "Lonely Girl", concluding that "Invariably, the group naturally shifts into a gear that's undeniably catchy and uplifting.
"[2] Chad Childers of Loudwire also praised the production work by Matt Hyde and Jay Ruston for providing "a more fleshed-out presentation" of the band that traverses from "melodic gems ("Left for Dead", "Veins")" to tracks that contain a sinister edge ("Fascination", "Deathwish"), saying that Red Sun Rising have "seized the day on Thread, which continues to show promise for a band bringing a little something different to the rock radio world.
