==Overview==
''Thrumdrone'' was the first Carnival Art album to be released on noted alternative rock haven [[Beggars Banquet Records]].  It is also the debut of [[Brian Bell]], who assumed bass duties after [[Ed]] filled the void left by former guitarist Shane Paul Rhody.  This disc is often referred to as the band's debut, due to little exposure of the 1989 long player ''[[Like Nobody's Business]]''.
 
The songs "Mr. Blue Veins" and "Octopus" appeared on 1989's ''[[Carnival Art EP]]'', though it has yet to be determined if they are the same versions.  However, as Bell does not appear on that release, they are likely different rcordings.  An acoustic version of "Mr. Blue Veins" also appears on the "[[Wrestling Swamis]]" single.  Also, the video for "Mr. Blue Veins" was derided by ''MTV's Beavis & Butt-head'', in the episode "Water Safety" ("Ugh, Beavis put your 'blue vein' away!").
