Okay if you had to choose... Original or Revisited version?

[@emre241195]

Original for sure

[@Andrew_-nr7zt]

I prefer the revisited version

[@sweetgregt]

Original but I'm glad we live in a world where both can exist together.

[@danielmikesell1510]

Well there birbula, I don't know but my nips sure are hard lol

[@JVL1988]

Original was raw, this is polished. Both have their charm, but the original sounds right. My favorite track has always been Silhouette, it’s way better on the original.

[@sweetgregt]

Whole thing sounds exactly like how they play these songs live these days. It's perfect.

[@nathaniellarson8]

I just love how Teppei has his guitar sounding like an ambulance siren on Artist in the Ambulance.

[@Ravelle17]

Teppei is a sorcerer

[@adrienBTB]

Man that's why I love your content so much, I'm gen z so I got into metal in 2019 and discovered through your channel bands that the scene don't seem to talk about a lot like this or TDH and find it so refreshing and appealing musically, never heard of this album before, but jeeez it kicks ass

[@METALBIRB]

Broo love hearing that! And the fact that you brought up The Dear Hunter too, hell yeah man. You got great taste!

[@radoslavklucar1072]

Same here!

[@thirdmonkeyent_llc]

You need to listen to their whole catalog. You have some homework to do. Vheissu is their magnum opus.

[@secondson312]

This band has had the biggest influence on me as a musician and music lover. So ahead of their time. Dustin’s vocals are unmatched. The way he sings high notes with rasp so they sound low until you try to sing them is crazy and the odd time signatures they play in a way that makes them feel so natural. Can’t say enough

[@Ronnock]

Yeah, especially as he matured. It's almost as if it's a harmonic between his vocal fry and his natural tone.

[@JVL1988]

Can’t wait for the Vheissu re-recording.

[@richardsalaverria9363]

Same, Vheissu was my first album from them. "Atlantic" is such a haunting song and they play it really well live too.

[@JVL1988]

@@richardsalaverria9363 I completely agree :)

[@zacherysmith8637]

@@JVL1988 and the tour that will come with it

[@Ronnock]

This is truly what I wish they would revisit. It's as if they were ahead of themselves in their own timeline with Vheissu; it'd be much more fitting now for how they've evolved as a band.

[@KiwiCrisis]

As a fellow mid 30s fella with a Thrice obsession in high school, I love this. Love your energy. Thanks for the vid.

[@woooo_yeah]

I’m an early Thrice fan and don’t care for their new sound, but I think its great that they’re acknowledging their old work. I hope they do this with Vheissu, that album will always hold a special place in my heart

[@Ronnock]

Interesting that you're not a fan of their latest sound, but that's where the change distinctly started, which alienated a lot of their original fans.

[@KiwiCrisis]

Vheissu was the perfect mix of old and new Thrice, I think. I don't think it alienated many, most fans grew and caught up eventually.@@Ronnock

[@nickturmes1715]

If I could just get the live extended version of Deadbolt on a studio album, life would be complete.

[@raconbacon5649]

Yes, dear god please

[@Ronnock]

They really did miss the boat by not having Cold Cash's extended version.

[@quieteyes881]

I still listen to this album front to back on a regular basis. Now I just listen to this version. They did a great job with this.

[@Darrkness]

I've seen Thrice alot (my fav too) and they've played alot of these live here and there over the years. Still, I really enjoyed the revisit and am thankful we got it and a upcoming tour.

[@arman-eb3vv]

its so good to see how much you love this album

[@stephenwoodrum2735]

One of those albums that will stick with me until death. Sounds like the slower parts of the songs are possibly better than originals. Overall production value sounds amazing. I agree with you that I hope Thrice revisits these sounds.

[@danielonfire10]

Thrice is my all time favorite band too! Alexisonfire is a close second. This remake is pretty good.

[@mickeylikecrazyy]

Thrice and Alexisonfire are 2 of my favorites. But Thursday will always be my number one. All super good though!

[@ProgrammedForDamage]

Mine too. Seeing them both live this year. Alexisonfire this month and Thrice in September.

[@lostsignalspodcast]

i keep thinking The Artist in the Ambulance and the video for aof's Accidents are the same incident

[@0odles0fBrutals]

i love it, its just them playing it like they would live these days and having the current dustins voice adding so much more depth to the clean vocals compared to the originals adds a ton imo super excited for the tour theyre doing on this and playing it in full especially having such an incredible band like holy fawn opening funnily enough i found holy fawn from them opening for thrice on the vheissu 15 year tour so its all coming full circle for me

[@Owenator26]

When I heard about this news from Thrice I immediately thought Metalbirb is gunna be stoked about this! Lol

[@davido4317]

Its like if Thrice decided to become a cover band and cover nothing else but Thrice. I think I have seen Thrice at least 10 times live now. June 1st Brooklyn Steel!!! Can't wait!!!

[@MrLinkyPlays]

I go to look up silhouette and seen the newer version uploaded 1hr ago i was so confused, 20 years latter and like you i was blown away even showed it to my buddy and it brought him back as well this album ment alot to so many people.

[@ProgrammedForDamage]

It's interesting to hear the album with Dustin's current vocal intonation. As some people have already said, it sounds more like their live shows, because Teppei and Ed's backing vocals are higher in the mix. Can't wait to see them again this year. This time my 18 year old daughter is coming with me.

[@chiefbeanus3224]

If you’ve already gone to see them live how was it? That sounds like a blast to go with your daughter, hope you had or are gonna have a good time

[@ProgrammedForDamage]

@chiefbeanus3224 Fantastic! As always. They are super-tight live; always have been. I was shocked (in a good way) that Dustin's voice sounded more like the original AitA era. They played the entire album, plus 'Motion Isn't Meaning' and some tracks off Illusion of Safety, Vheissu, actually... pretty much all their albums bar Identity Crisis.

[@mattdunn1024]

Lyrically, this may be my favorite album EVER

[@sebastianrivera6164]

I’ve been caught up in the train of following the more popular songs in the Metalcore and Deathcore scene that I forgot how much I enjoyed the hardcore punk and post hardcore scene. Back then I didn’t care about what was popular, I just cared about what I enjoyed myself. This revisited album reminded me of those good old years. The Artist in the ambulance will always have a special place in my heart ❤️

[@TT-hl3zv]

OMFG! Yes this album changed my life in highschool, and then the Alchemy Index blew my whole world up again!!! So happy they revisited this one.

[@BeerRunBennyTheKid]

In interviews they often talk about how they weren’t happy with the production on this album. I guess if they were gonna re-record a record, this was gonna be it. Great tunage. Sick move too, I’ve never heard of a band revisiting an entire record.

[@METALBIRB]

I hope for more bands to do this. I loved this idea!

[@stephencobucci]

Such a sick record, glad to see you featuring it on your channel. 20yrs later and still a killer album.

[@NickCepeda]

Sad I missed this stream. This was a surprise I was not ready for and immediately bought my ticket for the tour. Captures the original album so well while keeping it feeling fresh and to their live standards. It’s been on repeat since release and not stopping anytime soon.

[@WilliamLawson-e3p]

I was already a fan, but I have a whole newfound respect for you upon learning Thrice is your all time favorite. SAME.

[@ryanspencer3384]

Birb, I was pumped to see this video! Definitely took the long way to and from work for this album today. Easily one of my absolute favourite albums of all time much like yourself. First time commenter but long time viewer! Cheers!

[@Pop_Shepski]

AITA is my second fav album of all time

[@DrekiTech]

The guest artists added such a cool element to this. I think Melting Point of Wax absolutlely crushes and sounds excellent in their newer style.

[@chubbymonkey452]

Can’t imagine how you felt seeing this release, they are way up on my list but you had to be insanely hype. Killing moon, paper tigers, and ABOLITION OF MAN especially are such classics. Can’t believe they did this.

[@Ravelle17]

Abolition is a top 3 or 5 Thrice song for me and Revisited actually managed to improve it which is insane

[@Vyngraven]

Great album from start to finish.

[@josuastangl7140]

This just made me sooo happy

[@mattcano6018]

Thrice is also my favorite band of all time

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

I’ve gone this revisit album 4 times today. Legit. Love it and what it is just as much as the first time. What a underrated band and album. 6:20 is my fav for the changes! Love these guys with all my soul!

[@jtjt3823]

My favorite band and favorite album, it has been great going back and forth listening to the two versions. Awesome that they did this

[@cubantoosh]

THRICE is the most under appreciated band ever my favorite

[@alexsanchez3503]

Got my tickets for June 23rd! Just saw them about a month ago for the illusion of safety tour they did! It was so amazing! Been listening to them since about 2007. My all time favorite band as well!

[@Jt7166]

I’ve seen some negative reaction to this remake but I gotta be honest, I absolutely love it. I love how thrice has evolved over the years.

[@METALBIRB]

How? It's an extra take to a fantastic record. More the merrier! Hell I'd love a reimagined slow version cause why not haha

[@Joseph-R]

This was one of those bands where they only had 1 album that stuck with me, and it was Artist in the Ambulance. This is super cool and maybe having this new twist on this album will help me get into their other work

[@alabmourdinson2131]

Alchemy index albums are really good

[@richardsalaverria9363]

I discovered them right after high school with their "Vheissu" album. Artist in the ambulance has some really good songs, my brother and I saw them back in 2018 and they played a good show. Might have to go seem them again for the dose of nostalgia.

[@PanasonicYouth21]

You’re missing out man

[@hawkstrike18]

Somehow it makes perfect sense that you have "hate" in your username... And many wouldn't, but I know what's this about. You probably troll on those forums even now. I hope not but I've seen many who are like that (mind you, I sure agree on some stuff regarding WoW losing its original charm but still - and I was one of the first weirdos criticizing the store back in wotlk when everyone was worshipping these companies but I was trolled about it then, lolz). Anyhow, I hope you will end up liking the other albums too and understand what they're all about, and hate way less things from now on :p

[@Joseph-R]

@@hawkstrike18 I mean.. you made a pretty wild assumption. This account is like 15 years old. I made it when I was like 13 and when I got on the phone with blizzard support they made me change my account name for dumb reasons, so being some edgy 13 year old I changed it to that with blizzard watching. I changed my KZbin account name many years ago, but some KZbin update has forced me to use this old username and no matter how much I try to change it, when I comment or do anything it shows up with this old name 50% of the time.

[@pierrebouchard1213]

You're the only one who acculy did a good review of this monster revisited version....still this days its in my top 3 favorite album...thx by the way....thrice are so underrated...

[@Pop_Shepski]

Is it crazy that when I was 15, silhouette was my least favourite song on the album. At 35, it gives me fucking goosebumps

[@0paulsen0]

I'm pretty sure I'm almost the exact age as Metalbirb because I had the EXACT same reaction to this album. My most listened to album of my life. I love it with the same passion.

[@EldritchDWX]

Paper Fricking Tigers, man

[@atmos1x]

High school love in all this album. Seen these guys like 10 times over the years and never regretted a single show!

[@G00435563]

Fire 🔥. Favorite band of all time also. Fire 🔥

[@Throne1607]

It’s like hearing the album again for the first time ❤

[@umarsultan9241]

so much nostalgia and yet it's still one of the greatest albums ever recorded.

[@taylorhudson4329]

So stoked we get a tour of this album too! Got VIP tix for Seattle! Who else is going to Seattle show?

[@alexxturkk]

dude i cannot stress this enough you NEEEEEEEEED to check out holy fawn they are an S tier band. a mix of doom metal and shoegaze their music is absolutely gorgeous

[@bravery12329]

Artist in the ambulance was one of my gateway albums my brother handed me in 2005 and I have loved thrice ever since

[@punkshowswpg4718]

This is in my top 3 albums ever!!! I am fan boying watching you fanboy 😂🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@theTOMSONproject]

dude woohoooooo.....i went bananas about this!!! Thrice is love

[@alispie]

I started playing bass a couple years ago and All That's Left is one of the first songs I learned too.

[@IAtoms]

Just saw them live in Chicago a couple weeks back. They were an awesome show! Sold out in the House of Blues so it was packed to hell

[@adecakaship2486]

I'm in heaven! I still truly enjoy the original vocals even tho Dustin don't really like them, they were perfect the way they were. But, just the fact that I can enjoy this album in a different way is just something I never thought would happen. ❤

[@METALBIRB]

There's times where Dustin's crooning, raspy vocals I enjoy a bit more here. Love how we got this album in a different way too man

[@adecakaship2486]

@@METALBIRB I totally agree with you man ! I really love how he evolved as a vocalist, all I meant is that the old vocals still hold up to this day, but I do appreciate the new take on them that's for sure!

[@KingUponMain]

I find it it funny, I got into Thrice around vhessiue Era, so them revisiting this record was almost new to me 👌

[@thebigdirty2107]

Slappin the bass

[@c.holmes575]

I've been rep'in Thrice hard since my buddy joey in high school (02) gave me a bootleg copy of Identity Crisis. i was a broke ass lad in high school, and yes since then I've bought every bit of their music. Vheissu to me is still one of their greatest transformations..

[@METALBIRB]

Join the discord. I need more Thrice fans in there. discord.com/invite/tYCqF6yQBu

[@xNimrod97x]

They made it better. Thrice is also my favorite band, and I can’t wait to see this in STL. What’s your favorite album by them? Beggars and Vheissu for me. Also horizons/east is up there.

[@totalityismentality7472]

Dustin is one of my top vocalists of all time up there with Vessel of sleep token and probably Rori of Dayseeker

[@edgargonzalez206]

You have to do a reaction to Blood on the Sand - Thrice

[@JohnRoberts-ek3pp]

I think it's awesome they did this. Overall I still prefer the original, but the revisited version is also amazing. Wish more bands would do this. It's also incredible to see that people are still somehow surprised That Dustin's voice sounds nothing like the original and hate on this album, or any albums modern Thrice has made because of it.

[@josevelajr]

I love that they did this, and these songs sound better than even IMO. But, I don't need Thrice to be "heavy" again. I guess it depends on ones definition of heavy but I feel like they're still heavy, but in different ways.

[@Khak1]

i honestly really like this revisted version. the only songs that I prefer the original of are stare at the sun and paper tigers, the rest are at least equal or better to me. if I heard the new and old one for the first time today, i'd probably pick the new one

[@divided123]

Everything about this seems to just be going for a realistic and live sound. Even the features feel like they just invited the guests on stage to sing a song they love.

[@709mash]

Do you think they'll revisit other albums?

[@nolankuffner3573]

I think the worst thing about the original.. It sounded like the reissue live. So this is basically Thrice admitting, if you're a fan of live albums that play the way they sounded in your car / home stereo, this is the album for you. Paper Tigers is probably my favorite live Thrice track, though Silhouette was my favorite album track for the longest time. Which is saying a lot, because like you Birb, this is an album I have always loved. My hockey player friend and I used to listen to this cruising around, and we'd always find ourself having to watch the speedometer 🤣 Not a leisurely cruise lol

[@brycec1770]

Cool video, but they've actually barely played "Don't Tell and We Won't Ask" live.

[@ElderTrollsGaming]

just tried to get tickets to their show in montreal sold out in 2 minutes

[@examinizeify]

I've heard of thrice but never gave them a listen. I'm a fan of this album.

[@curtiswilson3569]

Original was slightly more raw.. I go original

[@Meg_Lovegood]

the Sellout album no real fan loves this album

[@TGBalex]

My first watch through with you and honestly I think it was terrible. Maybe because how deep this album is for me, but you cutting through songs just ruins it and you putting in little comments ruins it more. If you put in meaningful comments it would be okay. You literally submitted like 10% meaningful comments and just butchered an album. I recommend anyone else just go listen to the album and enjoy it. The above seems harsh If you are a human that listen's to thrice you probably already get the extraordinary sound and technical production that comes from this band. If you don't then maybe this thing is for you. But if you know Thrice and get it, just skip this, will just make you hate your life for even wasting time on it. Go listen to the album and enjoy it as a whole piece of work that is so beautiful. Oh and Considering the beginning of this note was about Architects, which are they even relevant? Their last good album was like 10 years ago, and their last tour they cancelled shows bc they didn't sell enough tickets which is super lame. I have been going to shows with 50-100 people for a long time You seem like an Architects fan, so this all is starting to add up. But praise for putting your face and nuts out there, I don't have the balls to get shredded. Good luck with this

[@METALBIRB]

Hey man you need to stop being so upset over nothing. Hope you do better one day

[@Ronnock]

Your comment is understandable, because I sympathize with all the cuts, but I thoroughly enjoyed just watching another fan of Thrice enjoy the highlight reel of the album as much as I did.

[@thirdmonkeyent_llc]

Well Stare at the Sun is a fav favorite too I think even more than Silhouette

[@thirdmonkeyent_llc]

I've always wanted to do a big montage tattoo of AITA and Vheissu. Of just pictures from different parts of songs: Bend back your bows Radon Jonah and the whale Peter seeing Jesus A moon A chain gang Weathered walls crumbling And a few others all making a big piece that goes from my left chest down to my elbow.

[@thirdmonkeyent_llc]

Every time I think they can't top themselves again, they top themselves again. TAITA rerecorded featuring artists from other bands like Hot Water Music and Manchester Orchestra and Architects?!?! Just wow 🤯🤯🤯🤯

[@leonsimmonds3778]

I personally can't stand any of Brian McTernan's production work (that terrible 'clipping' at the start of The Abolition of Man's breakdown, anyone?) Balance & Compusure's Separation, The Movielife's 40 hour..., From Autumn to Ashes' Holding a Wolf by the Ears... All sound as flat as a pancake. This version sounds like thrice playing metalcore. Not a generic metalcore band playing metalcore. To me, this is infinitely better. 🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾

[@awrely]

It was 2003 and I am pretty sure Brian had nothing to do with the mix and engineering
