Thrice - Palms (September 14, 2018) Album • Page 295

yea but i fit was written as a separate release then no it isnt b sides, its an EP.

 

A lot of shops will put up their RSD leftovers online a week or so after. Check Turntable Lab, Shuga Records, Bull Moose, Amoeba etc.

 

I'm glad they gave us something to politely debate over for the coming years re: B sides vs separate release


do y'all call the mwY [untitled] ep b-sides to the [untitled] lp?

 

nope, to me that's a separate release. It has a clear opener and closer and feels like a complete work.

 

If the band says they’re not b-sides, then they aren’t b sides

 

I agree, was sorta wondering if there's any opposition to that

 

Since this is an EP and not just a new song, they won't release it on digital either?

I'm sure someone will leak it but I'd rather support the band if I can but I'm probably not going to make it out and about trying to find it on RSD.

 

You don't know how marketing works! lol

 

Hopefully people can keep it polite. When it’s from the same session some will call it b-sides, and because Mike said they were b-sides, Some will call them b-sides.

B-side to me doesn’t make it inferior or anything...it just more speaks to when and who recorded them.

I’d be cool if it had a complete EP vibe.

I’m cool with Teebs calling it an EP too.

It’s new Thrice music. That’s whats exciting.

 

Hopefully up for sale digitally. What has epitaph done in the past?

 

Wiooooooooooooooo

 

Yeah hopefully it eventually makes it’s way to Spotify

 

Can’t wait for another 6k plus posts on whether or not the ep songs should have made the album

 

Wouldn’t be surprised if this material is a bit more experimental

 

Or what Star Wars movie they equate to. (Wait, its obviously Rogue One right?)

 

need the track titles first!!

 

It’s amazing to me how fans and social media have really become the news source for music.

 

Lol when Ian asked Riley how the tour went on their podcast, Riley responded, “it was...a tour.”

 

aw that's not good. Of course I was hoping it'd be a good experience since the shows themselves were huge.

 

He went on to say it was good overall. But his tone overall was pretty “meh”

 

Subway says they're not fast food.

 

Can't wait for all the posts wondering why Hold Up a Light made it on the album over the EP songs.

 

Every time I went to Subway it always took an eternity to get my sandwich, so they're right, it's not fast food.

 

B-sides have a negative connotation. Knowing that their b-sides are often quite good, they're simply packaging them as something... else. But, these songs were written for Palms and are now serving as an extension of Palms. Riley has already confirmed the crux of the matter.

 

Who cares if it's b-sides or a EP or whatever. I'll tell you what it is. It's new Thrice music, it's all that matters.
