Thrice - Palms (September 14, 2018) Album • Page 259

Title track gets a lil dirty

 

Heh the weight isn’t heavy

 

I love how you straight up have full on songs on here. I agree with them all though.

 

The ending of For Miles though.

 

I had to stop somewhere cause I was just about to name ALL thrice heavy songs

 

Yeah, mostly referring to the vocals on the chorus.

 

Beggars is a logical follow-up to TAI

That said I still don't care much for it

 

Wrong

 

Don’t worry, I’ve reported him already.

 

Good

 

I was poking fun at the irony of calling a song about weight not heavy

 

my issue with beggars is it's too indie/stripped down sounding. Vheissu and the fire EP are the perfect amount of experimental and heavy mixed together for me.

 

my work here is done

 

Haha I didn't catch that.

 

That is exactly what they were going for though.

 

I know other bands like Anberlin and Underoath have played shows with two full albums back to back.

Imagine if Thrice did a small stent like that. Night 1: Artist and Vheissu, Night 2: The Alchemy Index, Night 3: Beggars and M/M, Night 4: TBE and Palms. Each with an encore of some sweet Illusion songs, or even do a night of IC and illusion.

 

My top heavier Thrice moments:

-ending to For Miles
-ending to Wake and Avenge the Dead
-ending to Abolition of Man
-ending to Under a Killing Moon
-ending to The Messenger
-ending to The Arsonist
-intro to Blood Clots and Black Holes
-intro to the 2nd verse in Hoods on Peregrine (starting with Ed's sweet bass solo part leading into THE. TRUTH. THEY. ARE. SELLING. YOU. OUT.) So good.

 

Love another album in this vein so badly, but probably won't ever happen.

 

So many songs to rehearse lol. Hey New Found Glory just did 80+ songs on their year long anniversary tours. Realistically Thrice should do some sort of 20th anniversary celebration like a residency somewhere. But they won't.

 

Since we are thrice fantasizing...I'd love to see a theater tour like "an evening with..." type of set. 10 stripped down/acoustic arrangements. Intermission. 10 hits/singles followed by 10 fan favorites. Limited dates so they dont burn themselves out. Idk prob never but man that would be awesome.

 

I love all those big ideas, but then I'm sad because I know something as big as that would probably not come here.

 

Yeah and I totally get that. I do think they executed it better than on M/M, and I dont mind some of that, but it also lacked alot of what I love about their heavier albums

It has grown on me over the years (I hated it when it first came out 10 years ago) but it will never be my go-to thrice album.

 

All the world into weight into circles might be the best 3 song stretch to open a Thrice album.

 

We got TBEITBN which I think is their best since the first alchemy index. So I wont complain too much about that.

 

It’s definetly the best 10 song stretch from All the world to Beggars ;p
