Thrice - Palms (September 14, 2018) Album • Page 331

Fire

The Arsonist

 

I'm offended by this

 

I’m offended by those songs I listed too, that’s why they’re on my list!

 

Oh heck yeah, we are ranking things again.

Give me a few minutes to think this through and then its rank city.

 

Hold up a Light
Wake Up
Listen Through Me
As the Crow Flies
The Great Exchange

 

Bottom five excluding anything from First Impressions through TAITA. In no particular order:

Wake up
Listen through me
Promises
Call it in the air
Death from above

 

To expound:

Wake up (the chorus just kills me and I can't really get past it)
Listen through me (Too worship-y)\
Promises (lyrically always struck me as redundant in lieu of the far superior The Weight)
Call it in the air (woof to that metaphor)
Death from above (love angry political dustin, but I find these lyrics eye rolling)

Lyrics are usually what put me off a song. And these are the five with the lyrics that jumped out to me as off putting today. I would say that the only "permanent" entries on this list are Wake up and Listen Through Me. The other three were just the ones that stood out today out of probably among a half dozen or so.

 

Bottom 5 is an interesting one. I’m only gonna consider from Artist onward for this one and I think I’d go:

Treading Paper
Listen Through Me
The Dark
Hold Up a Light
Digging My Own Grave

 

Thrice didn’t make a bad song until Major Minor imo (excluding IC and FI)

 

Anyone have a favorite Thrice memorabilia they own? My favorite is the first pressing of Beggars with the # (/2000) being the area code of my home town

 

I also own a sick “To Awake and Avenge the Dead” hoodie that was my go to hoodie in HS.

 

My bottom 5 would probably be a bottom 6 and it would probably just be the Earth EP ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Once it finally arrives, my favorite Thrice thing I own will probably be The Red Sky EP on vinyl.

 

My favorite piece of Thrice memorabilia is this tee that i got at my first rock concert ever, Beggars tour in 2009. Just wore it last week actually.

 

Sorry my dudes. I just find Whistle Blower the most generic sounding on the album besides Wake Up. Maybe because it takes the intro from a better song or whatnot, I've just never been too big on it which is strange because I love angry Dustin. I hope we can still make this relationship work.

 

What a tour that was!

 

I could disagree with a few of these “bottom songs”, but it’s your opinion, even if you are wrong.

 

How dare you.

 

Least favorites post-Illusion

Listen Through Me
Wake Up
As the Crow Flies
Night Diving
Lion and the Wolf
Child of Dust
Paper Tigers

 

I love Whistleblower because of the massive Vheissu vibes I get from it and would argue that it's one of their best songs post hiatus.

 

Hey Mr "anti half their discography including all of Artist and Broken Lungs", you know you don't have anything to say to me

Now how did you like Death Wolf?

 

Can all of TAITA — with the exception of Abolition — count as 1 bottom song?

 

No because we are doing bottom 5 songs, not best album.

 

No because that album is great.
