Thrice Band • Page 363

thinking vocal slides ruined a country/western album of all things is very funny to me

 

I agree. It's stylistically correct in that genre. And I personally don't mind mixing that with his normal bluesy "clean vocal" technique. To each their own though I guess.

 

would we be having this conversation if it was another band? I get where everyone is coming from, but chase is obviously not the worst example of a fan voicing their opinion on social media imo

 

Yes.

 

I'm not a huge fan of Dustin's current vocal style, but also he can do whatever he wants. Maybe it's easier on his vocal cords.

 

well it’s really hard to have an actually conversation when you’re not even quote-replying to me

 

Gnash rips hard.

Desert dreaming is really weak, btw.

 

I didn’t know what a vocal slide was until today.

 

i mean, I have ALSO done things like saying congrats on their release and leaving purely positive comments on other posts Thrice has been making recently. It’s not like I’m bombarding their socials with negativity or only ever voicing critiques. I spent this morning sharing “Gnash” in multiple group messages and getting people hyped about it. I’m only in here discussing my critique of Dustin’s recent vocal trends because someone here tagged me about it

 

It's that song by the Goo Goo Dolls.

 

Dustin's voice is simultaneously beautiful and devastating. The song is incredible. Vinyl has been ordered. Now praying for some tour dates that take them somewhere near Seoul.

 

I’m all for being critical of creative decisions that you don’t like and wishing different decision were made. But, commenting that way on the artist’s own post or tagging them in it, etc., seems pretty clearly rude to me, lol. Write it in a review or make a petty comment on your own personal social media account or whatever, imo.

 

Anyways, that song rips. When I got to the end, I couldn’t believe a Thrice song in 2025 was doing that.

 

Yeah, bingo.

 

Gnash fucking rules, that’s all I’ve got!

 

What you all don’t know, thrice are chase’s favorite band, but he’s also harder on them then like any other band haha. Of course the band doesn’t know this when reading his comment. I don’t think it’s that big of a deal, next time maybe just pair it with something more positive.

 

Imagine all the world is mad without a vocal slide!
