Thrice - Palms (September 14, 2018) Album • Page 79

I completely agree. The Whaler is my favorite Thrice song in general.

 

whaler acoustic is awesome too

 

Whaaaaa!?

 

B-side to the Come All You Weary single!!

‎The Whaler (Acoustic) by Thrice

 

Bout to check that out

 

I really hope the new record has a Whaler or Wood & Wire.

 

Once Palms is released, it's conceivable that their set lists will no longer include any M/m. 'Yellow Belly' is hanging by a thread.

 

Not having any M/M at all would be tragic. Yellow Belly kills live.

 

Hi everyone. Stumbled across this board via Thrice subreddit. As far as I can tell, this place is far more active than reddit.

I try not to listen to singles until the full album drops. But based on what I'm reading "Only Us" suggests Palms might be a bit more sonically adventurous than M/M (which, as time passes, is proving to be probably my least favorite Thrice album) and TBEITBN? Thrice might be my favorite band, but I think their recent work has suffered from being a tad bit generic.

 

Thrice subreddit found me. *hide*

 

More instrumentation is not a prerequisite for sonically adventurous. Making a rock record in 2016 is pretty darn bold if you ask me.

 

I’d be totally ok if they kept Words in the setlist permanently.

 

If Disarmed didn’t exist I’d be very sad

 

I love Major/Minor.

It holds a special place in my heart, and I hear people’s quibbles about it, but can’t help but look at it with love and admiration. Even if it’s probably on the bottom tier of their albums for me, I still love it.

The only Thrice music I don’t listen to would be First Impressions and Identity Crisis. listened to each at least once, and can appreciate them for being the beginning sounds of my favorite band, but beyond that I have no desire to return to them.

Palms intrigues me, because I feel like it’s another leg of their career, and it’s their sophomore album (of graduate school, if you will) in this second half.

 

So this is a question I’ve had for a while as someone who got into Thrice around 2013 or so, I’m sure someone will have an answer... Why is the artwork for Beggars on digital services (iTunes/Apple Music, Spotify, etc.) different from the artwork I usually see as the “official” cover for the album? Basically, why is the @Kevin360 avatar not the artwork Beggars has on Apple Music?

 

It actually technically has three different covers

 

Really? Is there a reason for that? I had no idea

 

I think when it leaked a few months before release it had a different artwork

 

I just started on AP I think the month it leaked, and wasn’t a huge fan yet. So I’m not entirely sure

 

Interesting. But when you buy a physical copy of the album, it has different artwork than the one it shows on Apple Music and other digital services, right? I personally like the physical cover better.

 

The album leaked prior to its original release, and the band opted to quickly release it digitally (the "bars" artwork on iTunes) before they could secure rights to the artwork they wanted (my avatar). Failing to secure rights to that image, they chose the image on the physical copies of the record (figures on an island).

 

Yeah the physical cover is so much better. I really like the original cover too.

 

Yep. My old ipod artwork was cool with the symbol, but I would have preferred the other two

 

Interesting. It's unfortunate that the leak messed up their plans.

 

That’s what really pulled me into listening to them. That, and they were coheadlining with Brand New in the fall.

Everyone was speculating about Daisy, but then the Beggars leak got a bunch of buzz and they moved the digital release date up by a month or two.
