kinda reminds me of what they did with the special edition of TAITA, with the interchangable cover cards. my mate had one of those versions, and being a tard, i didn't get into the band until that version had become REALLY rare...

ok I'm going to be honest, I've never listened to Thrice before, nor any post-hardcore band. What would be the best album to start with, bearing in mind I'm new to the genre?

personally, I'd say Vheissu or Artist in the Ambulance but there are huge divides in opinion over the best thrice albums

edit - err, kind of read your question wrong, this would be where you would want to start with thrice; i'll leave post-hardcore recommendations to someone who knows the genre better

Let's not get into a best Thrice album thing again. But Artist in the Ambulance is the most accessible for new listeners.

The Illusion of Safety is the closest thing they've made to a true "post-hardcore" album, Vheissu is their most progressive album, and The Artist in the Ambulance is probably their most accessible. One of those would be best to start out with, depending on your tastes.

What the fuck is "True Post-hardcore"? And honestly all of their first 3 albums are post-hardcore.

No shit - It's a broad genre. I just meant that Illusion of Safety sounds the most like what people would typically expect when they think of a post-hardcore band. Also, Identity Crisis was sometimes branded with other tags, like emo-core, when it was released, and the Artist in the Ambulance has a couple songs on it that wouldn't be considered post-hardcore if they weren't done by Thrice. I've never heard Illusion of Safety called anything but post-hardcore.
