Official Thrice Thread

[DFelon204409]

Ya I got this yesterday. It's a comprehensive view of Thrice's career up until today plus music videos, a b-sides CD, and some amazing live videos. A lot of the songs have modifications or alternate/added endings that are just amazing. A lot of them are really brutal too. I like that they don't aspire to be a jam band or anything but manage to rearrange their songs and keep them fresh live. I recommend this thing to anyone. Anybody else have it?

[shane italian]

Does it mention Irvine?

[Permanent Solution]

I saw it at the CD shop, but I have less than $100 to last me till the end of the semester so I opted not to get it :(

[DFelon204409]

It mentions the LA area but doesn't talk about Irvine. There are shoutouts and mentions of all the venues and random local shows they played. Footage of it too.

[shane italian]

It mentions the LA area but doesn't talk about Irvine. There are shoutouts and mentions of all the venues and random local shows they played. Footage of it too.Hmm, not to bag on the DVD. But it's lame how they mention the LA area when they are from Irvine and Irvine isn't really that close to LA. Did it mention Chain Reaction/Showcase Theatre/Glasshouse?

[k1ckthecat]

I just got it tonight and haven't watched the DVD yet, I only heard the CD and the first 2 songs Eclipse and Motion Without Meaning or whatever it's called are the only 2 good songs on it, the rest are acoustic or sucky.

[DFelon204409]

Hmm, not to bag on the DVD. But it's lame how they mention the LA area when they are from Irvine and Irvine isn't really that close to LA. Did it mention Chain Reaction/Showcase Theatre/Glasshouse?

No no. I meant the whole LA area, including Orange County and Irvine. At one point when Riley is talking about touring in Europe he says, "little band from Orange County" despite being from Irvine. They speak very broadly in terms of geography because they were local to everybody around that area. They mention the Chain Reaction and smaller ones like Kono's (don't know how to spell it sort of don't remember?).

Two are covers, one is live, three are acoustic, and "That Hideous Strength" just owns. I can't believe you're trashing that song. So sweet.

[shane italian]

They mention the Chain Reaction and smaller ones like Kono's (don't know how to spell it sort of don't remember?).Ahh, that sounds better then. I thought they just said they were from LA or something. Yeah, it's weird how they went to my high school and some of the teachers remember having them in class. Now they're the big thing for a lot of people. My friend actually lives down the street from their bassist, but he never sees him.

[Let's Chop Cats!]

Go ask for money since they're rock stars.

[shane italian]

Go ask for money since they're rock stars.They should donate some to my school. My parents have spent well over 1000 bucks for me and my sister to goto school here...and then the school is falling apart with outdated equipment.

[Let's Chop Cats!]

Why the hell are you directly paying for public school?

[shane italian]

Why the hell are you directly paying for public school?We had to buy like 5 books for english. All kinds of fees for classes. Bus fees for sports. Other sports fees. Random fees. Fees for the previous fees. Hahahah. It never stops. Then they call your house asking for donations.

[Let's Chop Cats!]

Haha thats gay. All that stuff is free (we don't directly pay) at my school.

[k1ckthecat]

Tell you the truth I didn't listen to the whole thing, I just heard Cold Cash & Colder Hearts acoustic and I turned it off. Sorry Thrice but that's going too far.

[WetNoodle]

I didn't even know they had a DVD :-\.


I'll check it out tommorow. :thumb:

[DFelon204409]

Tell you the truth I didn't listen to the whole thing, I just heard Cold Cash & Colder Hearts acoustic and I turned it off. Sorry Thrice but that's going too far.

No dude. Thrice is amazing. The acoustic adaptations are really great. I saw Dustin Kensrue live over the summer and he has a great ability for acoustic conversion. His versions of "Round Here" by Counting Crows and "Creep" by Radiohead destroyed.

[k1ckthecat]

No dude. Thrice is amazing. The acoustic adaptations are really great. I saw Dustin Kensrue live over the summer and he has a great ability for acoustic conversion. His versions of "Round Here" by Counting Crows and "Creep" by Radiohead destroyed.
Don't get me wrong, I love Thrice's unplugged tracks, I just didn't think Cold Cash was a good song to do an acoustic track to. They're unplugged version of Trust was amazing.

[gaslight]

I'm looking forward to getting the DVD when I see it around here.

[DFelon204409]

Look! It's a gaslight. Haven't seen you around in ages.

[pixiesfanyo]

Yeah, "Round Here" is great.

[young, loud and andrew]

Mine should be coming in the mail today or tomorrow. I am quite excited.

[nitzguy]

i got it yesterday, i had no idea they were so funny, i couldn't stop laughing. i like the acoustic stuff they did

[Gnarmageddon]

I'm going to get it as soon as I can.

[cbmartinez]

I wasn't sure if I was going to get it but looks like I'll be picking it up now. I got a couple of Thrice songs yesterday off WinMX that I hadn't heard of. Some might be on the CDs, I just didn't recognize the names:

"Madman"
"Freedom"
"I've Just Seen A Face"
"Opaque"

I don't have First Impressions EP either but any help would be appreciated.

That Creep cover wouldn't happen to be on the DVD would it?

www.waterispoison.com has everything you're looking for.

[DFelon204409]

That Creep cover wouldn't happen to be on the DVD would it?

No because it's done by Dustin for his Ursa Veritas solo project.

[bloodclotsandblackholes]

i went to three different stores to buy the dvd/cd ep and none of them had it. **** sometimes i really hate canada, we get everything last.

[frmautumTOashes]

Haven't got the DVD yet, but I plan on getting it. I heard Riley is really funny. Plus, my friend said he got it for only $10. The DVD and the EP.

[DFelon204409]

Ya, mine was for 12. Tower had an opening day only sale so I picked it up for mad cheap.

[-FiT-]

i went to three different stores to buy the dvd/cd ep and none of them had it. **** sometimes i really hate canada, we get everything last.

Word. I think we get it on April 4th..At least thats what the bastards at HMV told me

And Thrice is a band that can totally pull of thier songs accoustically (sp?)

[Sep]

Not really, I absolutely hated their acoustic version of Stare At The Sun. It was horrible.

[DFelon204409]

That's just you. And you're a poopie head. Therefore your opinion doesn't count, lunchbox.

QED

[Sep]

I do like Thrice, but that acoustic was just horrible. And you know it.

[DFelon204409]

No I don't know. I love every Thrice I ever heard. Even "All That's Left." It's just my least favorite song by them. Call me a fanboy if you like but I have yet to hear Thrice make a true mistake in musical choice.

[cbmartinez]

"Ultra Blue" is my least favorite.

[young, loud and andrew]

I wasn't sure if I was going to get it but looks like I'll be picking it up now. I got a couple of Thrice songs yesterday off WinMX that I hadn't heard of. Some might be on the CDs, I just didn't recognize the names:

"Madman"
"Freedom"
"I've Just Seen A Face"
"Opaque"

I don't have First Impressions EP either but any help would be appreciated.

"Madman" is a b-side from the Identity Crisis days. "Freedom" and "Opaque" are First Impressions songs. "I've Just Seen a Face" is a Beatles cover from a compilation... I can't remember the name.

I watched the DVD today, and it reconfirmed why Thrice is my favorite band ever. I was blown away... completely blown away. Nick's comments on the back of the cd were amazing. I absolutely love this band, and I will never stop loving them. I think DFelon is probably the only other person here who realizes how spectacular Thrice is. Thrice is going to be one of the few bands from this "scene" that we will all remember in twenty years. Their outlook, their lyrics, and their music are truly hard to find in most bands these days. These guys are geniune, and no matter how big they get, they will always, always be in it for the right reasons.

As for the EP-- I've had all those songs for a few years, but it's always nice to have mastered versions. "That Hideous Strength" has always been a favorite of mine.

[young, loud and andrew]

No I don't know. I love every Thrice I ever heard. Even "All That's Left." It's just my least favorite song by them. Call me a fanboy if you like but I have yet to hear Thrice make a true mistake in musical choice.

"All That's Left" and "A Living Dance Upon Dead Minds" are probably my least favorite songs, but I still love them.

And don't worry: I'm a fanboy too. :lol:

[DFelon204409]

Actually, Madman wasn't a B-side it was supposed to be track 10 on Identity Crisis (listen to the sort of piano + background conversation that blends it into the CD) but they took it out last minute for the rerelease on SubCity. Bad decision. I like that song a lot.

[young, loud and andrew]

My bad. That sounds correct.

I was somewhat surprised that they didn't put "Madman" or "Lockstep" on the EP.

Also, the new version of "So Strange..." is amazingly soothing. I'd love to hear a mastered version.

[corycamefalling]

thrice is such a good band.

[frmautumTOashes]

No I don't know. I love every Thrice I ever heard. Even "All That's Left." It's just my least favorite song by them. Call me a fanboy if you like but I have yet to hear Thrice make a true mistake in musical choice.

Lockstep is a ****ty song. It's probably the only song I don't like by them. The stuff off First Impressions isn't that good either, but that's partially because of the production. From the acoustics I heard the were all really good. Especially Stare at the Sun.

[k1ckthecat]

"Ultra Blue" is my least favorite.
Ha that's funny, that's the first song I heard by Thrice and that song is what got me into them and then into more hardcore bands. :smoke: I smoke too.

[corycamefalling]

i keep telling myself i gotta stop smoking, but i never do.

[Camilla Rhodes]

No I don't know. I love every Thrice I ever heard. Even "All That's Left." It's just my least favorite song by them. Call me a fanboy if you like but I have yet to hear Thrice make a true mistake in musical choice.

Lockstep was a pretty bad musical and lyrical choice. Don't doubt me, I'm one of the bigger Thrice fanboys out there.

[DFelon204409]

Lockstep is a ****ty song. It's probably the only song I don't like by them. The stuff off First Impressions isn't that good either, but that's partially because of the production.

Oh yeah? Well you like FATA so your opinion doesn't count.

[young, loud and andrew]

First Impressions is a good album. "All Eyes" and "Better Days" are awesome.

[SubtleDagger]

Yuck. First Impressions was bad times. Even Thrice disowns it.

[cbmartinez]

I just listened to The Illusion Of Safety. Seriously, such a mindblowing album.

[frmautumTOashes]

Oh yeah? Well you like FATA so your opinion doesn't count.

To be honest, I don't like FATA much anymore. I thought they were so hardcore and original, but I've found a lot of better bands since. They were the band that got me into hardcore, metalcore, emo and whatever else, so I guess they're alright.

I like Thrice a lot better though. They're the best at combining hardcore and pop-punk, IMO. They make it seem so easy. Even though there are tons of bands that have the same style as Thrice, Thrice somehow sound different than the other "popcore" bands, if that makes any sense.

[SubtleDagger]

I just listened to The Illusion Of Safety. Seriously, such a mindblowing album.
The only songs I dislike on IoS are "In Years To Come" and "So Strange I Remember You" (and don't argue with me about it, because I know every Thrice fan loves it; I hate it).

The rest are so good it's unfair.

[k1ckthecat]

Illusion of Safety > Identity Crisis > Artist in the Ambulance > getting attacked by a hobo with rusty nails and the ebola virus > If Only We Could See Us Now

Someone should just rename this the Official Thrice Thread.

I'm not going to argue, but ****! "So Strange" is one of my favorite Thrice songs.

[cbmartinez]

Me to. The ending is really incredible. And 'In Years To Come' is one of my favorite songs on the album just because it has one of my favorite Thrice moments ever:

"I wanna' write the perfect song, and play it just for you, while you are tangled up in sleep. I'll love you more than you'll ever know, until my lungs stop breathing, my lungs will take you for granted."

He puts so much emotion into those lines.

[young, loud and andrew]

Man, I love Thrice so much. I am so excited for the new album... I know they are taking it in a completely different direction, and I can't wait to hear it.

The end of "So Strange" is really hard to play on guitar.

[SubtleDagger]

I'm not going to argue, but ****! "So Strange" is one of my favorite Thrice songs.
It's one of the dullest songs I've ever heard. And the drums suck.

[Camilla Rhodes]

IF WE COULD ONLY SEE US NOW! The emotion he puts in that song along with the lyrics and that amazing intro makes for an awesome song.

Aye, I love those lines.

Maybe I'll write them as a poem to some hot emo chick and get some nookie :naughty:

[ForeverSilent004]

i pre-ordered it

i forgot what the free gift was or whatever. i got a damaged thrice poster in the mail, not sure if there was supposed to be something else

[-FiT-]

It's one of the dullest songs I've ever heard. And the drums suck.

I love thrice but i felt a lot of the power of the orig. was lost with the new arrangement they did.

If you get the chance (if youve havent already) listen to the actual version from "The Illusion of Safety" The outro makes my nuts jump up into my stomach.....



....and thats a good thing

[corycamefalling]

a living dance upon dead minds is probably my favorite thrice song. "who wields a poem huger than the grave?"

[young, loud and andrew]

His name is "Subtle Dagger"; do you think he hasn't heard The Illusion of Safety? Also, the endings from the new and the old version are practically the same. Teppei still plays that riff.

[incubliss]

i've only seen Thrice live once, and that was only one song, the opener.

it was at Reading festival last year, and they were late coming on. there was another band on at the same time i wanted to see so i just wanted to watch Thrice for a few songs then go see other band, bingo. 20 minutes late, they opened with Under a Killing Moon, not sure everyone was really ready for them. picture the scene, everyone really spaced out, arms folded, then they came out, "hey we're Thrice, you might like this" then boom, everyone just rushed forward, a 40ft gap opened up. i don't usually get into pits, i always get really hurt, but i couldn't miss out on this one, it was insane! just this massive 40ft gap, swept right across the width of the field broke out, and everyone went insane, it was quite an experience. i got mullered in the pit, so i just left and went to the other tent to watch YCNI:M. i'll see them again sometime i hope.

[-FiT-]

good call i didnt look at his name

The build up is totally different...and its slowed down a tad....it definetely sounds different

[Nataroo]

man, Thrice getting mad props from the real hardcore kids makes my heart smile.

IOS taught me why I bothered learning guitar.

[Nataroo]

p.s intro to beltsville crucible>outro to so strange.

[radianteclipse]

My favorite Thrice song definately has to be "A Torch to End All Torches"...I don't think I could ever possibly get sick of that song.

[young, loud and andrew]

IOS taught me why I bothered learning guitar.

IOS is probably my favorite album of all time, and yes, it taught me too why I bothered learning guitar.

[Camilla Rhodes]

man, Thrice getting mad props from the real hardcore kids makes my heart smile.

I know exactly how you feel my friend. Identity Crisis was my inspiration.

[cbmartinez]

The best songs on Identity Crisis are "To What End" and "As The Ruin Falls."

[young, loud and andrew]

My favorite IC song is "A Torch To End All Torches."

[m0nKaY]

Acoustic version of opaque was awsome. It's a lot of fun to play on a guitar.

[frmautumTOashes]

Man, I love Thrice so much. I am so excited for the new album... I know they are taking it in a completely different direction, and I can't wait to hear it.

The end of "So Strange" is really hard to play on guitar.

what kind of direction do you think they're going in? do you think they will start writing more melodic stuff. i doubt that they would lean more towards hardcore than they did in their other albums. the new album is coming in august, i can't wait.

[Camilla Rhodes]

I went to show in Bakersfield this past Feb. and they played about 6 or 7 new songs. It's a lot heavier than any of their older stuff. Some GREAT singalongs and amazing riffs and progressions. My most anticipated album since IOS.

[SubtleDagger]

I think they'll be doing more complex and noisier stuff. Not meaning heavy, meaning more expirimental.

[Camilla Rhodes]

I think they'll be doing more complex and noisier stuff. Not meaning heavy, meaning more expirimental.

This is very true.

[Bullet Jackson]

should be awesome, fav songs are where idols once stood and paper tigers

[DFelon204409]

I think they'll be doing more complex and noisier stuff. Not meaning heavy, meaning more expirimental.


Ya, apparently, we're getting a full horn and string section for selected moments on the new album. I'm really really excited.

[Camilla Rhodes]

should be awesome, fav songs are where idols once stood and paper tigers

Paper Tigers brings the mosh.

[SubtleDagger]

Paper Tigers, A Subtle Dagger, Hoods On Peregrine, Under A Killing Moon, To Awake And Avenge The Dead, Where Idols Once Stood, Deadbolt, and Blood Clots And Black Holes are my favorites.

[Camilla Rhodes]

I'd say That Hideous Strength and The Abolition of Man bring the most tingles down my spine.

[young, loud and andrew]

Paper Tigers brings the mosh.


F.UCK moshing during Thrice. Thrice is too good to mosh to. When I see Thrice live I want to soak it all on, and I'll definitely push any ninja-kicking hipsters if they try to ruin that experience for me.

[cbmartinez]

"Paper Tigrs" is such an awesome song though. It just destroys everything. Like, there's something about "Under A Killing Moon" that makes it not sound as heavy as songs like "Silhouette" and "Paper Tigers," those songs just beat down.

[frmautumTOashes]

I think T&C is the best song off IC. It's way better than the FI verison. That's really good to hear that Thrice will be trying more experimental stuff. Usually when a band gets popular they start to suck, so I'm glad they're trying new things.

[-FiT-]

Dustin has one of the sickest screams ever....and there isnt a whole lot of effect in it (ive seen them live about 7 times and he hits the scream ALWAYS)

I think they are gunna keep writting the same style of music as TAITA (riffs for everything) and i dont relly know if they are going more "melodic" or not...i wouldnt let the fact that they released a couple of accoustic tracks make you think that

[-FiT-]

[Sep]

Favorite songs: The Abolition Of Man, Paper Tigers, Silhouette, Deadbolt, To Awake And Avenge The Dead, A Subtle Dagger...

[frmautumTOashes]

I just saw the DVD and it was really good. The funniest part is where Riley sees, graffiti all over the place and it says "chico for life" and then this guy on a motorcycle is all acting all shady and stuff, and he's like there's chico admiring his work. Then, when they were in Norway or Germany or something, they read all the signs in different languages. It's so funny. You have to see the DVD to get it.

[thedriveinfan]

uhh i hardly ever post, but sine that one guy said this thread needs a hundred for official thrice ima help it out since they make me happy, they really where like the foot in the door for me to hear more hardcore music and they make great music also

[Anti-Prefix]

Thrice are one of the greatest things ever to happen to hardcore. They are my first and favorite hardcore band and always will be. Identity Crisis is such an amazing album. As far as albums go, Identity Crisis > Illusion of Safety > Artist in the Ambulance.
All of them are still amazing albums. Identity Crisis was my first hardcore album too.

I don't think I need to set up any links. If you haven't heard them listen to them and discuss.


Also check out this song (Beatles cover).
Eleanor Rigby (http://s27.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3C809L64D8QLM3N5U2FXXEUYX4)

Just discuss this amazing band.

[Let's Chop Cats!]

Deffinently not a hardcore band, may be influenced but not hardcore.

[cbmartinez]

Identity Crisis is more or less a hardcore album. Though it's their worst in my opinion.

[NewKindofArmy03]

I don't like them.

[Anti-Prefix]

I would consider them to be melodic hardcore. Regardless, I think this is the most appropriate forum.

[Tyler]

They really not hardcore or 'melodic hardcore' for that matter. That cover is alright. I like Thrice.

[Anti-Prefix]

They really not hardcore or 'melodic hardcore' for that matter. That cover is alright. I like Thrice.

What would you call them?

[cbmartinez]

They are so hard to classify. I end up saying like metal/hardcore or metal/punk.

[Anti-Prefix]

They are so hard to classify. I end up saying like metal/hardcore or metal/punk.

...I guess. They are far from punk in my opinion. Very far from it.

[Tyler]

They are really hard to classify. They don't seem to have much of a metal influence. Post-hardcore is very iffy. Definitely not pop-punk or punk. Not hardcore.

[StrivingForChange]

They are really hard to classify. They don't seem to have much of a metal influence. Post-hardcore is very iffy. Definitely not pop-punk or punk. Not hardcore.

Post-Hardcore is definitely your best bet. Hard to classify their genre, yes. But they are a good band. I like them.

[swedelead]

I like them and always considered them to be post hardcore, because it is the closest fit although it is not perfect.

[spenser93]

Thrice are one of the greatest things ever to happen to hardcore. They are my first and favorite hardcore band and always will be. Identity Crisis is such an amazing album. As far as albums go, Identity Crisis > Illusion of Safety > Artist in the Ambulance.

thier pop punk, judging that the song: all thats left from madden 04

[Anti-Prefix]

thier pop punk, judging by all thats left from madden 04

You are an idiot. They are extremely far from pop-punk.

[Tyler]

Well not extremely far, but they are for sure not pop-punk. Influenced, yes.

[Rise Me Up]

Could we quit arguing over genre? They're a good band and I'm seeing them at Warped Tour.

[Anti-Prefix]

Could we quit arguing over genre? They're a good band and I'm seeing them at Warped Tour.

Thank you. I think I am too.

I hope I am.

[Nataroo]

through their career theyve morphed from pure pop punk to poppy post hardcore.

still awesome though.

[SpecialBoy]

Definently not a hardcore band, may be influenced but not hardcore.

Yeah, they're...different is all.

[Let's Chop Cats!]

They really have no genre other than maybe rock or like indie. They just take influence from numerous genres and meld them together.

[k1ckthecat]

they were my first favorite "hardcore" band too, but i'm gonna have to say Illusion of Safety was their greatest. from there they just went downhill, If We Could Only See Us Now was a huge letdown. i know they like doing acoustic tracks and most aren't bad, but the new cd was a waste of my money i think. the DVD was funny tho.

[fastfingers]

Stop posting in the f'ucking gay a'ss Thrice thread and head over to the Union Made thread. Unless you don't like hardcore...

[k1ckthecat]

suck a ****

[Tyler]

Thrice are not one of the greatest things to happen to hardcore hahaha

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I really like Thrice. My favorite songs by them are Deadbolt, Stare at The Sun, Motion Without Meaning, and To Wake and Avenge The Dead.

[whiteminority]

i think thrice was pretty good until they came out with artist in the ambulance which sort of killed them for me.

[fastfingers]

suck a ****

If We Could Only See Us Now wasn't really meant to be a cd release. It's just got a bunch of OLD tracks that they did. Don't be an idiot.

Thrice is one of my favorite bands of all time.

[DFelon204409]

Thrice is my favorite band of all time. Behind Weird Al that is.

[Anti-Prefix]

Ugh I just made a stupid thread on them and I didn't know we had this.

Amazing band. One of my favorite of all time.

D Felon give us a genre.

[Tyler]

Ugh I just made a stupid thread on them and I didn't know we had this.

D Felon give us a genre.
He just made this thread out of an old Thrice thread and yours.

[DFelon204409]

Ya I bring the merge.

Melodic Hardcore. But nobody cares anymore.

[Sep]

When is the new album supposed to be out? End this year?

[StrivingForChange]

When is the new album supposed to be out? End this year?

They are headlining a tour in the fall. So I presume somewhere around then.

[DFelon204409]

Late August, early September.

[Sep]

Kick ***.

[Rickler]

The most recent estimate on the main page is mid-September

can't wait!

[srt-4]

is it true that they are going on tour with underoath after warped tour? if so that would be awesome.

[DFelon204409]

It's true and no it isn't awesome. I think it'd be fun to watch those bands but imagine how retardedly myspaced out that show is going to be. Tons of retarded 13 year olds with ugly dyed black butchered haircuts and makeup.

[srt-4]

haha. thats so true. there are so many scene kids at underoath shows these days its insane. i think half of the floor was made up of scene girls at the last one i went to, lol. but the up side is, it is SO EASY to make your way to the very front dead center. since the new cd came out i have seen them 4 times and every time i have been as far up front and as perfect dead center as you can be, not going onto the floor until the band before them and at sold out shows. so at least it has its up side. but i do see where you are coming from.

[DFelon204409]

No. I want it to be impossible to move unless you're in the pit. That's the way it was meant to be.

[srt-4]

some crouds are tougher than others, but i have never been to a show with a few thousand people or more where you couldn't even move at all. ****, that would be crazy.

[MinorThreat]

yeah i saw underoath and like.... walking into the pit they got out of the way.... i just walked into it.... and they all stopped... and looked at me.

Im not a very big guy at all, and i thought it was hilarious. And i have never had that many 13 year old girls check me out.... its probably because i look like im 15 or 16 hahaha.

[MinorThreat]

and what else is sick.... doesnt pertain to thrice at all, but i just scored a backstage pass for a MCR show.

[MinorThreat]

dang, turns out he was lying

[frmautumTOashes]

I can't wait for Thrice to come out with a single. I'm guessing it will be We are the Image of the Invisable.

[DFelon204409]

How do you know the track listings person with the REALLY cool user name? Have you been watching the videos that I can't watch because my computer is retarded?

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Hahaha, really cool name.......

[asian al]

Thrice=my favorite band.

So talented,so diverse,and so much passion.

Illusion of saftey is one of the best cd's i've ever heard.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I'm seeing Thrice today......boo ya bitches

[DFelon204409]

I heard the new songs rule.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Hopefully they will play them today

[whiteminority]

what do these new songs sound like? links?

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I havn't heard them. But Dfelon said that he heard they were good.

[DFelon204409]

You have to get em live. I read stuff on board.thrice.net about someone who heard them live.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Dude, they were so sick today. The new songs are awesome. They were great.

[srt-4]

i can't wait to hear the new stuff. any more info on it than awesome?

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

...You'll like it.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

The Illusion of safety, is one of my favourite albums of all time.

[RCVA]

what songs should i download?

[Electric Ocean]

Deadbolt
The Artist In The Ambulance
Paper Tigers
The Melting Point Of Wax
Under A Killing Moon

I'm not really too sure what stuff is good on Illusion of Safety as I haven't really heard any of it apart from Deadbolt.

[DFelon204409]

The Abolition of Man
So Strange I Remember You

[XemoXmoshXpitX]

Sorry to change the subject, but what have you guys heard about the Thrice/The Bled/Underoath/Veda tour? Can I get tour dates anywhere online?

[DFelon204409]

I've only heard the punknews.org update.

[RCVA]

Best album?

[RCVA]

what songs should i download?
s'hit. Forgot about this post.

[DFelon204409]

The Illusion of Safety. Dude, read back for song suggestions. You're just being lazy.

[ThePassionOfTheKasey]

Illusion of Safety is an awesome cd. When I got it, I listened to See You IN The Shallows over and over.

[RCVA]

The Illusion of Safety. Dude, read back for song suggestions. You're just being lazy.
...i know.

I downloaded most of Artist in the Ambulance. It was pretty good.

[frmautumTOashes]

...i know.

I downloaded most of Artist in the Ambulance. It was pretty good.

IOS is even better than TAITA. I like them both though.

[mygraveisempty]

No dude. Thrice is amazing. The acoustic adaptations are really great. I saw Dustin Kensrue live over the summer and he has a great ability for acoustic conversion. His versions of "Round Here" by Counting Crows and "Creep" by Radiohead destroyed.

Oh man...I couldn't agree more. I saw him do his acoustic set - closing with "Silent Night". The place was still.....you could hear sweat beading up on the fat guy behind me. :p

[Angry Balled Fists!]

TAITA is nothing compared to Illusion Of Safety.

Every song is incredible.

[Cyco_Vision]

Hmm, not to bag on the DVD. But it's lame how they mention the LA area when they are from Irvine and Irvine isn't really that close to LA. Did it mention Chain Reaction/Showcase Theatre/Glasshouse?
When the members are being interviewed they are being interviewed in Chain. You can easily tell if you've been there.

[Cyco_Vision]

Late August, early September.
"If only we could see us now" said August, but Dustin said September when they were playing at Warped. Their set also sucked by the way.

[Cyco_Vision]

TAITA is nothing compared to Illusion Of Safety.

Every song is incredible.
But Illusion of Safety is nothing compared to Identity Crisis.

[DFelon204409]

But Identity Crisis is nothing compared to First Impressions lolz!!! They're all good in their own way.

[Cyco_Vision]

But Identity Crisis is nothing compared to First Impressions lolz!!! They're all good in their own way.
Seriously. I'd like to take a time machine to see them at Chain when they played stuff off First Impressions in their bro days.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I haven't heard Identity Crisis...

I will make sure to check it out.

[RCVA]

IOS is even better than TAITA. I like them both though.
i found that too.

[frmautumTOashes]

But Identity Crisis is nothing compared to First Impressions lolz!!! They're all good in their own way.

I was listening to Opaque off FI and it's really good.

[Cyco_Vision]

I haven't heard Identity Crisis...

I will make sure to check it out.
How have you not? It's what made them who they are.

[cbmartinez]

I think Identity Crisis is really weak.

[Cyco_Vision]

I think Identity Crisis is really weak.
Stop listening to Thrice.

[cbmartinez]

The production takes away so much. The only songs I liked were "Identity Crisis," "To What End," "As The Ruin Falls" and "A Torch To End All Torches." "Phoenix Ignition" and "T&C" are okay. But "In Your Hands" and "Ultra Blue" are just annoying though.

What's so bad about the production? You mean the sound quality?

[cbmartinez]

Yeah, I'm just not fond of how the instruments sound. The songs don't pack a punch.

[RCVA]

thrice have a few good songs e.g. subtle dagger but some awful ones e.g. stare at the sun.

[k1ckthecat]

Yeah, I'm just not fond of how the instruments sound. The songs don't pack a punch.
i think the outro of Identity Crisis packs a punch, yeah not very good sound quality but some songs are decent

[hey, you're not cory!]

Thrice is the poo.

I don't have much to add to the thread. They are a ****ing amazing band though and Teppei is one of (if not the) best gutarists recording today.

[incubliss]

anyone heard the new song, Image of the Invisible?

i heard it, and it's fecking great. got a live recording off the thrice board, someone recorded it from the Warped Tour, and it's a very good sound recording. the song is sounding amazing and i'm sure the album is amazing. the album being called Vheissu. out in September (the 27th i think)

[Fabz]

I just can't wait for this album, it look amazing!

I will get an IP ban on you if you don't post that link in three hours. I don't care if you're in Australia and it's 4am, you're going to wake your Dingo *** up and post that song. I had to miss Warped to go on vacation and you will show pity or face the consequence of realizing that I have none for others.

[DFelon204409]

Video of "Image of the Invisible"

[-1up!-]

I prefer TAITA over The illusion of safety, but it's truly a band that completely changed my musical life. The first song I heard (To Awake and Avenge The Dead) will stay in my mind forever, it's what got me into hardcore and later into emo.

THANKS, THRICE.

My favorite songs are Paper Tigers (first "scream" song I got hooked to) To Awake(...) and Don't Tell and We Won't Ask.

edit: that song is awesome, I'd like to hear it on record

[-1up!-]

I think Identity Crisis is really weak.

123.

Let's stop the Identity Crisis reign, here and now.

For anyone who hasn't seen. I ****ing love it.

[Fabz]

Yeap I really like this album cover....If the song are reflecting the cover, it will be amazing....

[Tjebby]

Nice album cover. It looks sweet. I can't wait until this comes out. Im hoping for it too leak.

[DFelon204409]

Could be better. Don't really care though. For me it's what's inside.

haha, see you found it ok then.

:D

[DFelon204409]

No, not the mp3 only the video. Prepare to be banned.

Thx for this :thumb:

[DFelon204409]

This better be a good mix or else I'll ban you.

[conniption]

i really just listened to thrice for the first time, found out what i was missing on, so i took my friends thrice cd (TAITA) and found it was quite good. dont have the other one but i am most likely gonna get it.

[holdfasthope]

There you go. Enjoy!!

[srt-4]

you're the man!

[Angry Balled Fists!]

AITA is quite weak for me, IOS is their greatest work.

I love some songs on AITA though.

IC is meh to me, i haven't heard it to much, and i don't feel the want tbh

[RCVA]

Sometimes Thrice can be amazing. Their attempts at emo suck though.

[Berserker!]

/waits for Dfelon to come in and ban above poster

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Hahaha

[RCVA]

For some reason i think i'll stop posting in this thread...
*runs away

[DFelon204409]

Well maybe I should hate instead of educate.

Or not.

RVCA listen to Navio Forge and then listen to Thrice. Then tell me where Thrice is imitating them. That's your homework assignement. If you get worse than a B you get banned.

[m0nKaY]

Sometimes Thrice can be amazing. Their attempts at emo suck though.

Heheh NICE. :thumb:

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I'm starting to get into AITA more, but as soon as i liten to IOS i know what's best :cool:

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Deadbolt is definetly one of the best songs I've heard

[m0nKaY]

I think Phoenix Ignition is great. Awsome ending.

[frmautumTOashes]

Sometimes Thrice can be amazing. Their attempts at emo suck though.

Do you mean songs like Trust, Stare at the Sun, and TAITA cause they aren't emo. None of their songs are emo. I'd say Thrice have more of a post-hardcore influence.

[nitzguy]

personally i like all their work but i think identity crisis is way underrated. under par is a great song

[Tjebby]

IOS>TAITA>IC. Thats it.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

^^^

123

I love the red death, Identity crisis, subtle dagger, Where idols once stood, AITA and Paper Tigers are some of my fave songs.

[alkalinesk8er]

They're not horrible. They're singer is a great screamer but his singing voice pisses me off. It's so whiny!

[Permanent Solution]

personally i like all their work but i think identity crisis is way underrated. under par is a great song
I agree, I prefer IC to IOS :eek:

[DFelon204409]

They're not horrible. They're singer is a great screamer but his singing voice pisses me off. It's so whiny!

Says alklinesk8erboi. Hhahaa. His voice is more gruff than most singers this side of Marc Paffi (Bear vs. Shark) and Chuck (HWM).

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I like his singing voice.

[cuts_like_drugs]

Says alklinesk8erboi. Hhahaa. His voice is more gruff than most singers this side of Marc Paffi (Bear vs. Shark) and Chuck (HWM).


I disagree. Very much so.

[Anti-Prefix]

IOS>TAITA>IC. Thats it.

This is true. Although it's hard for me to say because IC was one of my first hardcore CD's and along with it is attached a lot of memories.

This is the truth though.

[frmautumTOashes]

This sucks their new album Vhiessu has been pushed back and it's now gonna be released October 18.

[DFelon204409]

Whatever, I can wait.

Upcoming CDs from HORSE the Band, The Fall of Troy, With Honor, Thrice, Between the Buried and Me. I can wait.

[alkalinesk8er]

Says alklinesk8erboi. Hhahaa. His voice is more gruff than most singers this side of Marc Paffi (Bear vs. Shark) and Chuck (HWM).

Jesus! I always get s'hit for this! I don't like alkaline Trio, I didn't make this username, my friend did, and the alkaline thing is an inside joke with him. God, if I just make a new one will I get more respect? :upset:

[DFelon204409]

No. I never give respect.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Whatever, I can wait.

Upcoming CDs from HORSE the Band, The Fall of Troy, With Honor, Thrice, Between the Buried and Me. I can wait.
You forgot Maida's upcoming cd............

[DFelon204409]

Oh did I?

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Yes, please check them out http://www.myspace.com/maida

[DFelon204409]

No I know who they are. It ain't happenin.

Jesus! I always get s'hit for this! I don't like alkaline Trio, I didn't make this username, my friend did, and the alkaline thing is an inside joke with him. God, if I just make a new one will I get more respect? :upset:

Nothing wrong with liking Alkaline trio.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

No I know who they are. It ain't happenin.
Oh well, thanks for giving them a chance anyways. I know not everyone can like them.

[alkalinesk8er]

Nothing wrong with liking Alkaline trio.

I didn't say there was... but I don't.

[-1up!-]

Whatever, I can wait.

Upcoming CDs from HORSE the Band, The Fall of Troy, With Honor, Thrice, Between the Buried and Me. I can wait.

I can't wait either. The Fall of Troy and Thrice are bands that were REALLY important over the course of my musical life.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Is there an actual release date yet?

[DFelon204409]

Oct 18. Got moved back from Sept 27.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Oh, thanks

[k1ckthecat]

Ok so the new cd came out yesterday and yet none of the stores around here carry it, anyone else have that? perhaps they will get it in on tuesday which is when new cds usually come out?

[srt-4]

ya, none of the stores around me have it either. its weird. maybe they will have it in two months. who knows.

[frmautumTOashes]

Ok so the new cd came out yesterday and yet none of the stores around here carry it, anyone else have that? perhaps they will get it in on tuesday which is when new cds usually come out?

Maybe cause it's OCTOBER 18th not AUGUST 18th.

[k1ckthecat]

Maybe cause it's OCTOBER 18th not AUGUST 18th.
Wow I'm dumb
sorry

[DFelon204409]

Lolz i'ma close this dead thread.

[srt-4]

hopefully people will be posting up leaked copies soon.

[DFelon204409]

No!!! I don't want to hear an adultered version. I listened to a few 10 second clips from TAITA and realized that wasn't gonna do it so I deleted them. Then I went on a month long trip to Alaska and the CD was released the day I got bad to Juneau. I bought it and dug it so hard. It ruled better that way. Trust me.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I don't want to listen to any leaks.

I'm gonna be patient and wait for the CD.

[frmautumTOashes]

I know that when you actually buy the CD when it first comes out it's just more fun and exciting than downloading a leaked version, but since Thrice kept putting off the release date it's tempting to get the leak if there will be one. It was supposed to come out in August.
