Woah i had no idea about this, should be awesome

huh, didnt see this coming

short hiatus eh

What the hell!?!? This is incredible news!

This sounds pretty cool.

today in "hey, cool"...

holy fuck yes

Woah

sweeeeeeeeet

Out of the blue.

XingKing should love this hehe

Hey, I didn't notice the O'Brother contribution. Amazing band.

interesting

Eh, the piece I submitted was so much better than this, partly because I knew the facts. There are only two songs on the split and they are both covers. Thrice does a cover of a Beatles song. This is the split that was supposed to come out in 2010 but never did. Nothing new.

Well that hiatus lasted a long time. Unless this is an excuse to release bsides from major/minor

Fuck, excitement dampened... Still should be good, though.

Nice

I had never heard of O'Brother before reading this. Definitely going to check them out now.

Now.

SO I LAY DOWN AND BEGIN TO GROW

Only because you asked so nicely.

Manchester Orchestra/Thrice/O'Brother

my brain says it'll be sex.

I saw O'Brother when they opened for Thrice last year and they were really good

Well I agree. I just saw MO post the picture of the artwork on their facebook page and hastily wrote up an article. None of the pages I read mentioned what the songs would be.

amazing

lol I was just kinda pissed because I was so excited when i saw the pic of the album on facebook.
sorry if i was rude

@fieryfenders

Nah man, if your article was better it's a shame my hardly informed shitty one got posted haha. Normally I take time with these but I figured this would be big news so I kinda rushed. Oops.

Good deal, I literally just finished listening to the alchemy index.

Was hoping both bands had broken up together.

thought thrice were on a hiatus lol

Saw this on Facebook and thought the title was Thrice. This just got a lot better.

will be amazing. hope this means thrice is still active

vait vwat?

:O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

regardless of covers or not, i'm excited

O'Brother just made me not want this. Fucking hate that band.

You're kidding, right? Why?

WHAT IS THIS OH MY YES WUT WHY WHO

" O'Brother just made me not want this. Fucking hate that band."

...and I hate you so much right now.

good for you? doesn't make up for the fact that O'Brother is one of the most painfully boring live acts I've ever had to stand through.

well this should be boring, hate cover albums.

"good for you? doesn't make up for the fact that O'Brother is one of the most painfully boring live acts I've ever had to stand through."

They were good when I saw them, but of course they only played like six songs. Their ep is incredible, though

lame

Would love to hear some unreleased thrice, even if it is major/minor b sides.

Redsky, I thought O'Brother was awesome live.

Also, what made you think this was a cover album Nikkolae?

Thrice, new material ? Me says - yes!

"Also, what made you think this was a cover album Nikkolae?"

well there's this:

"There are only two songs on the split and they are both covers. Thrice does a cover of a Beatles song. - Paxman

I'm hoping this is wrong, but whatever

Redsky I thought you liked O'Brother

O' Brother was really good live like 4 years ago.

Lol, I've never remotely considered O'Brother post-hardcore but whatever. I can't see them mixing super well with Thrice and Manchester Orchestra. But, it'll hopefully be cool anyway. Thrice couldn't stay away, apparently.

Just discovered O'Brother thanks to this split. Sweet.

I had no idea about this

That's awesome. Didn't expect that.

" Lol, I've never remotely considered O'Brother post-hardcore but whatever. I can't see them mixing super well with
Thrice and Manchester Orchestra. But, it'll hopefully be cool anyway. Thrice couldn't stay away, apparently."

None of these bands are post-hardcore. Thrice used to be.

EDIT: never mind, dude,I see that the article refers to then as post-hardcore. My apologies.

I did not know this was happening but I'm obviously super stoked. so much for Thrice's hiatus I guess, hopefully.

That's cool

Thrice does a cover of a Beatles song.

The Beatles song better not be "Helter Skelter" off the Beggars CD...

which was already included in an Artist era EP

yeah I wouldn't be entirely surprised if they just re-used it. lazy fuckers.

Sounds like an awesome collab.

"The Manchester
Orchestra track will feature up and coming post-hardcore band O'Brother."
O'Brother is not post-hardcore. They are experimental rock/indie.

ok i didn't realize someone already posted that, whoops.

which was already included in an Artist era EP

this excites me slightly.

@dylan
oh yeah that's right, my bad. So I guess this means there is a third Beatles cover coming, cool.

O'Brother is not post-hardcore. They are experimental rock/indie.

If these are the already released tracks from long ago, then I am pissed but if these are new tunes and this means Thrice is coming back then





















HOOOOOOOLLLLYYY




























FUCK






















HOOOOLLLLLLLYYYYYYYY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKK




































































I came.

o'brother is cool and all but i've never quite understood the hype

even when i was supposed to see them on that tour with circa, every band that played that night was like "you guys are
missing out on o'brother they're fuckin amazing" blah blah

kinda glad they were playing a festival that night tbh. split should be cool but fuck some covers, man

"who is manchester orc. i have not heard of them before"

They're this band that play strictly elfen hymns from Lord of the Rings and have a great affinity for soccer.

"haha don't call someone out on a genre if you're gonna call it something weird like that"
at least the label i gave actually fits their sound.

i think we're all wrong about what this really is

they keep saying "split" so maybe all three bands are just breaking up through a fancy and deceiving poster announcement

^what? they haven't even been around that long.. a lot of people just started listening to them when their first LP came out late 2011.

1. dont understand how people dont like o'brother and
2. i guess the thrice song will be she's so heavy?

Fuck yeah! Artwork rules.

Excited about this love all this bands.

Should be awesome.

Should be pretty sweet.

wow this is pretty awesome

Sooo stoked.

WHAT?

NEW THRICE SONGS?????????????????????? HOLY JIZZLE

GUYS; THERE'S GONNA BE A NEW THRICE SONG!!!!

well then, I'll finally have no excuse not to check out Manchester Orc.

According to Manchester's Facebook page, the Thrice cover is indeed "I Want You (She's So Heavy)", while Manchester/O'Brother are doing "Don't Speak" (not sure if it's the No Doubt cover or an original).

Also, only 500 copies are currently available on LP apparently... not sure if this will see a digital release or not.

It's such a bummer that the Thrice song is something they already released. Hope this means they are going to play some shows though

I'll take some hiatus covers happily. Especially Beatles covers.

I woke up last week to buy this thing, only to find out that it had sold out and already been put up on ebay selling for $150+

Guess I'll never own this thing

Wtf I gotta listen to this!

That Thrice song has already been released? I haven't heard it, what was it on?
