Kill the House Lights is a compilation album by New Jersey rock group Thursday. The album includes many unreleased versions of older songs as well as three new songs. It also includes a DVD with a documentary on the band and live performances. The name of the record derives from a lyric from the song "M. Shepard" from the band's 2003 album War All the Time.
Thursday announced they would be filming a live album on December 27, 2006, at Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ. They recorded their smaller show at Maxwell's in Hoboken, NJ the next day.
