Thrice Band • Page 300

The new recording is mind blowing. Loving all the guest spots too.

Chuck Ragan on "Blood Clots and Black Holes"? Goddamn gorgeous beautiful.

 

Yeah Palms is good, but didn't really grab me like these two albums did. Some absolute bangers on TBE and H/E and some great tones as well

 

Palms is their worst album, but "Beyond The Pines" is a top-10 Thrice song.

 

This has put me back on a huge Thrice kick. We're so lucky to have grown up with this band.

 

Grabbed tickets for the Artist 20th anniversary show. Should be fun!

 

This TAITA reissue has made me so unbelievably happy. Can't put it down.

Can't believe I had to find out about it in the heckin' vidya thread.

 

lol at Anaheim being sold out before the general sale

 

So I feel like this version definitely fixed the mixing issues so well and gives every part of the song room to breathe. May not need to go back to the original recording.

However, am I the only one bummed they didn’t record the version of cold cash with the new outro they played live for awhile? I was honestly expecting to hear that version without any doubt.

 

I don't think they've played Cold Cash with that outro you're referring to since coming back from hiatus. I remember them playing that song in 2016 on the TBEITBN tour and it was just the regular version without the extended outro.

Only thing I'm bummed about with this new version of it is Dustin not letting it rip for the entirety of the song's outro. Throws me for a loop every time to listen to it, especially when Ed is screaming while Dustin is mostly singing his parts until the end.

 

lol the news thread saying Thrice and Jimmy Eat World should retire is where my brain actually broke in half today

 

lol yeah the two best live bands on earth should retire, what a brain dead take

 

The news posts bring out some wild takes.

I still can’t get over “this record only exists to set expectations because Dustin can’t sing like he does on the original.”

 

I never look at news comments. It doesn’t exist to me.

 

I never want Jimmy to retire

 

What the actual fuck lol

 

it’s honestly the only song on here I don’t think is better than the OG. Funny it’s the opener

 

I didn’t know there was still news comment sections til recently

 

Heh. That is kinda on purpose cause … yeeeesh.

 

I usually HATE re-recording but this rules so hard.

 

Melting Point of Wax might be the standout

 

blood clots and black holes is my favorite thrice song of all time and the version here is so good. those chugging guitars at the beginning are so so sweet.

 

Ok I have listened to this a bunch today

 

Yeah, Wax definitely has the biggest glow-up. I went from liking the song to loving it now.

 

I keep wondering if Mike Minnick sent them his track for Abolition with the different pronunciation of "the" and they just rolled with it. The different vowel somehow makes the part heavier, though.

 

I'm a dummy because I didn't notice the guest vocalists. All this time when someone other than Dustin popped up, I was like "oh Teppei/Eddie sounds great here!".
