Thrice: To Bracket Everywhere is to Bracket Nowhere Bracket • Page 50

A BRACKET TO END ALL BRACKETS: THE ANTHOLOGY OF THRICE.

For those who are new to the concept, these are randomly generated brackets (no seeding!) where we go from album to album and put the songs from an album against each other. We vote on each matchups until we have a winner for each albums. Those songs will then face off in a Champions bracket to decide the best overall Thrice song! Same rules as the other brackets:


Rules:

1. Voting will take place over 10-24 hour period, depending on how close the matches are (if there's a wide margin too far to beat, the round may be run ruled to not waste time).

2. You must vote on every match in a round. If you don't your other votes don't count. Just reply to this thread with your choices. I will not vote unless there is a tie needed to be broken.

3. Feel free to discuss why you chose one song over the other and why you like that song. It's what keeps these fun!

4. I avoid byes into rounds if I can, but sometimes it's necessary. These are randomly generated; I do not pick them.

5. Once your votes are counted, there are no vote changes. Choose wisely before posting!

6. The King John Rule: Only participate if you've heard these songs. You are welcome to look them up and listen before hand, but if there's evidence you haven't heard them before or you're just voting to help/hurt a song your votes will not count.

And the most important rules of them all : Have fun and stay respectful of each other.

Call it in the Air is middle tier Thrice.

 

Have to bow out of these two albums now - only song I know well enough from either is Anthology (which is great). Will be back around for the final rounds!

 

It really is one of their worst songs. There's nothing compelling about Call it in the Air. The lyrics are completely uninteresting. Probably the worst lyrics to a Thrice song i can think of. I guess the ending is a little exciting, but the rest of the song isn't. I'd take basically every other song they've written over it.

 

Listen Through Me is a much worse song.

 

Disarmed
Listen Through Me
Call It In the Air

 

Absolutely not

 

Disarmed
Yellow Belly
Blur

 

It’s better than at least half of this album.

 

Blinded
Yellow Belly
Call it in the Air

 

Have you read the lyrics to Words In the Water?

 

Disarmed
Yellow Belly
Call It In the Air

 

Blinded
Yellow Belly
Blur

 

I like it better than Listen Through Me, Treading Paper and Blur. Not half the album though.

 

Oh, honey, no.

 

I like it way better than Blinded, Cataracts, Listen Through Me, Treading Paper, and Words In the Water. I like it a little better than Blur and Disarmed too.
