Horizons/West nu-metal confirmed!

 

The Alchemy Index Vols. V, VI, VII & VIII confirmed.

 

I love hearing that they are pushing boundaries hopefully this 4 year gap gave them plenty of time to cook up something amazing I hope the next one isn't in half a decade lol

 

I wish they gave us more water inspired songs, or a longer record

 

Riley Breckenridge

This is pretty close to more Water material truthfully

 

@wood&wire it has been years since i've checked out Riley's instrumentals

 

Same! Your post reminded me of them. I played the heck out of some of those, though. Pretty great stuff.

 

Reddit is doing Reddit things.

 

All the more reason to re-record Vheissu, when they get the time. It's a gem as it is, but with their production chops and Dustin's matured voice, man.

 

I'm sure there are maybe technical things that could be improved, but I'm pretty convinced that album is exactly what it should be

 

Honestly, I agree, and I know it's treasured around here (and by me). But I recall Dustin commenting that he doesn't really love his vocals on the original, and it would be a treat to hear them revisit it, if they could bring the same ethos that guided them with re-recording Artist.

 

I've also heard them say that because it's generally considered their crowning achievement, they don't want to mess with it. I know Dustin doesn't like his voice until Alchemy, but he really did make major strides on Vheissu.

 

I only started noticing what Dustin was talking about when he mentioned it I used to think Vheissu was when he became a great singer, I do love how much he experimented with his voice during the alchemy index and all the awesome harmonies he did, I feel like lately he's been messing with his lower range and using some of his the national, and tom waits influences and before I could see his thom yorke influences come out more with the falsetto stuff

 

I absolutely adore the production of Vheissu. Its one of the best sounding albums in "the scene". and definitely the best sounding Thrice record. I dont think we need a re-record of it

 

We probably don't need it but after listening to vheissu a million times I would absolutely love a fresh take and hearing that bluesy belting out from dustin during the earth will shake that is missing from the studio version, and the cool second guitar harmony they add to the outro to of dust and nations with teppei tapping part

 

"The Earth Will Shake" is perfect imho

 

It is the perfect way to close a set, too.

 

In my head it's sequenced much later on the album because of how well it works as a set closer. It's always jarring when it comes on much sooner than I expect.

 

One of or their best song live

 

I didn't go to this show, but after their hiatus... their first show back they opened with The Earth Will Shake if I remember right. I remember watching footage of that. Chills.

 

Never got the insane love for that song. It’s good. But yea. I have nothing negative to say about it. Just think they’ve got better.

 

I actually rarely listen to the studio version but live the outro is so good, and like I said a few comments up Dustin's belting out right before that stomping part that whole song just hits different for me

 

I absolutely love the imagery in that song and the way they bring it to life, the guitar tone, the heavy bits...like I said folks, it's perfect

 

Fine, I'll listen to Vheissu this morning.

 

Good, glad you got the message
