When it comes to Thrice, the variety of their songs and all the different aspects they have implemented over the years into their music, make it kind of hard for me to just pick one. From the older era, I really dig Of Dust And Nations. Wonderful tune, the simple yet so powerful tapped melodies are almost haunting. From the newer era, my favourite is Black Honey. That song basically created it's own cathegory. Thrice mastered here the crafts of composing incredibly catchy song, but not cheesy in the slightest way. It's that kind of song that gets stuck in your head the first time you hear it and stays there for years. Still can't get enough of it man.

Best band ever. They just never cease to amaze. Also favorite Thrice song alternates back and forth between. To Awake and Avenge the Dead and Like Moths to Flame

I was introduced to Thrice after listening to Black Honey and immediately bought the album To Be Everywhere Is To Be Nowhere then the first track Hurricane came on and I was floored. From start to finish it's a masterpiece and still holds it's place as my favourite Thrice album still. Even though their last album Horizons/East I really enjoyed as well. My top 3 off the last album would be Summer Set Fire To The Rain, Still Life & Dandelion Wine

Well shit. This was like Beggars meets Artist in the Ambulance. What a song, reaaally loved this one. Everything top to tail was amazing. That bridge was faaantastic. The lyrics are a message I vibe with, Dustin's always had a unique way with words that I can't help but love. Reaaally hard to pick a favorite Thrice song. Genuinely. But I'd it's probably matched between To Awake and Avenge the Dead off Illusion of Safety, and Like Moths to Flame off Vheissu. Both are great and have such explosive endings, and To Awake and Avenge the Dead has that killer lead at the end. I actually almost called my old band Killing Aristotle lol.

Thrice fans, let us all unite! The screaming really caught me off guard. The screaming was very subtle on pretty much all of their last 3-4 last albums, so this really surprised me and also really hyped me up! I know this is most likely a b-side or an extra song for a deluxe edition of Horizons/East, but I really hope we'll get some other songs with this kind of screaming.

Between the End and Where We Lie -- The introspective, philosophical poetry in most of Thrice's lyrics is my favorite part about them. This song is really just one example of that, but I've spent more time thinking about the content of this song then most.

No cons is fair. Horizons-era Thrice slaps. I wasn't a big fan of Palms, but seeing them take that sound and mature is wonderful, and Horizons East is probably my 3rd or 4th favorite Thrice album. And these singles or B-Sides have been just as good as the album.

Really like seeing that Thrice is starting to get heavy again. I found out about these guys during the release of To Be Everywhere Is To Be Nowhere, and I thought that was a really good record. My favorite songs from that record are Black Honey, Hurricane, Blood In The Sand, and Whistleblower. Sea Change was also a really good single. Definitely will have to check out some more Thrice in the future. 🎸

Great reaction! Favourite Thrice song before Horizons East is damn hard to pick, but if I'd have to chose I would say The Melting Point of Wax. Since the last album, it definitely is Robot Soft Exorcism. That song is still on heavy rotation, the atmosohere is out of this world! As you mentioned to be a The Dear Hunter fan some time ago, will you react to a song from their latest album Antimai some time? I have no connection to the band, they just deserve so much more attention 😉

These last two songs were supposed to be on West, but now they've decided to make West a different beast. They had enough ideas from the East sessions to make two records, but they were tired after the East cycle. So whatever West becomes, it won't just be catalogued ideas from East. It'll have plenty of newness.

Thrice were never not heavy, in my opinion. They just went in a different heavy direction. They won't ever be as heavy as TAITA, Vheissu or the Fire disc from TAL. However, Dustin tastefully brings out the shouting when he needs too. He did the same thing in Branch In The River on Palms. Even Black Honey from TBEITBN was heavy, but once again, not drop-tuned screaming heavy. I love this new era of Thrice. Their songs have complex song structures, awesome use of time signatures and Eddies bass tone is monstrous, it's out of control. I would love an entire album that has the vibe of these last two b-side tracks, the more grunge sound they teased on Beggars. The thing I love about this track is Dustin is shouting, but the guitars are barely distorted. The riff in the chorus reminds me of The Messenger a little bit from the Fire disc on TAL.
