Oh shit, I really shouldn’t have, but I got VIP. I need to meet an all time favorite band.

 

Thrice Announce New Tour

Full PR + new photo.

 

I’m so out of it today that I spent $325 without even blinking and didn’t notice that was a new song.

 

I bought my ticket before even realizing there was audio on the post.

 

lol same, but i am extremely into that snippet. hoping for a single/album announcement in the next month or so!

 

What a sound for sore ears. We're in it now, friends.

 

If they follow their pattern from recent releases, about a month after the announcement of the tour they announced the new album and simultaneously released the first song. Of course, in that case, the news began a month nearer to start of tour (which coincided with album release).

So, somewhere in the next 4 to 8 weeks, I suspect.

 

Hoping they play a new song on Thursday but I figure doing this before the studio version is out isn't something they do anymore

 

That snippet rules omg. Love that they started leaning towards more experimental stuff on the latest album again, and this seems to follow suit. Sounds like that song could be both dancey and heavy? Slightly reminds me of Model/Actriz before it turns into classic Thrice with those crushing baritone guitars and that ominous sounding chord progression. Gimme the full thing!!

 

Oh fuuuuuuuuudge

 

This song sounds nicccccccce.

 

That clip sounds absolutely killer. YUSSSS

 

Fuck yes, want to hear that whole damn song, sounds interesting so far.

 

Wowza that clip

 

Tried deciphering the lyrics to the clip, here’s what I came up with


I’m the teeth that gnash
I’m the trembling ash of cigarette
Im the tangled line that always seems to wrap around your neck
I’m the heavy amber that you see to make something known?
All you can do is pray?

 

That's almost word-for-word what I hear, but I think it's "to *wind around your neck" and "I'm the heavy *hammer that you *seize".

 

Obviously with the new song snippet and the little "12" in the tour poster, we know that the tour will be in support of a new album that is on the way.

Still, I've seen folks online wondering if it'll be *Horizons/West* or if that was abandoned for some other album (silly question I would've thought). This press release, which can also be found on the websites of several other venues hosting the tour, makes it clear that it will be *Horizons/West*.

So what is the meaning of the "I.O.C.A." on the tour poster? An abbreviation of the title of the first single maybe? Or maybe just the name of the graphic design company who made the poster?

I take it the faint "BEFORE" and "DOWN" in the concert stage images are just for artistic flair, but maybe they'll be connected to the album somehow.

 

I noticed little details in the flier as well and feel like it's probably related to the album and what is coming out is not Horizons/West.

I do freelance graphic design in the music space and have done my fair share of posters. I didn't do this one, and obviously not every artist thinks the same, etc. but I personally wouldn't add any words or characters that didn't mean something about the tour or release/wasn't instructed by the band to incorporate. I'd be a lot more subtile with anything I added that didn't mean anything and was just an artistic flair.

 

I look forward to a time when we don't have to debate what is or isn't /West. I have to imagine they've been kicking themselves for setting any sort of expectation back in 2021.

 

Just came back from the Luxembourg show and they ripped. Went in having no idea what to expect setlist wise so the amount of TBEITBN and The Artist In The Ambulance songs took me by surprise, as well as Beggars’ absence but it looks like they played a few more songs at other shows this tour including stuff from that album. Anyway, Death From Above, Firebreather and A Branch In The River went off!!

 

I demand Horizons North

 

I demand The Unquestionable Truth, Pt. 2.

 

Okay now we're talking

 

Vheissu revisited confirmed!
