Lyrics
My first and foremost memory is staring up in wonder at the wall. It circumscribed the city-they said beyond it nothing dwelt at all. But I came to wonder if the stories all were true, so one night I made my mind up-I resolved that I would find a passage through. And as I made my plans my head would spin and swiftly dance between the whys. Like why the roads were all dead ends-why we’d no word to name the color of the sky? And why did these tunnels lead me deep beneath the streets? When I was through I lit my lamp with something soft and green and damp beneath my feet. And I don’t know the way-but I know that I belong out here-on this journey that I never thought I’d make. Setting out across a new frontier-a new horizon with each eager step I take. As the stars begin to fade, I stride to meet the breaking day and breathe it in. It rakes over my tongue, so crisp and cool inside my lungs, against my skin. And I see the colors burst and bloom beneath the dawn-the brilliance overwhelms me, leaves me wondering what new world I’m even on.

Riley's drum work in this tune is incredible.

[@bretcollinstdm]

I whole heartedly agree with you. You can definitely tell he’s been working on his chops. His intro at 1:07 is tasty.

Seriously lol. So much dropped that night I’d only been able to get around to Spiritbox. Now I’m on my second listen of Thrice and then there’s still Eidola and The Plot In You.

Those Drums and Bass are so tiight. Thrice never dissappoint

[@sumbody694]

My all time favorite band, and has been for a long time now.

[@trevor1550]

I really appreciate how this band is still being innovative this far into their careers

[@theillmeister]

Every single album, they manage to switch it up into some new evolution of their musical progression. It really is incredible to witness after all of these years.

[@SaltpeterTaffy]

In retrospect, I find a few of the songs are throwbacks to the sound of the early 2000s, especially Summer Set Fire to the Rain. Brand New could have put that song on Deja Entendu.

[@naivedays5421]

Almost 20 years of listening to these guys

[@chasenthehype]

This album is the absolute greatest. First listen - my ears just couldn’t take in all the variations of sounds and tempos - but second, third and now fourth listen - officially Thrice’ greatest album yet. Right there with Vheissu and Alchemy Index. Just incredible.

[@emekao502]

So true

[@whatthe419]

Doesn't this song sound like something you heard in the movie "Prometheus"?

[@devinmichaelroberts9954]

funny, i love this album but ive never understood how anyone can consider Vheissu their best album or alchemy index. For me its two seperate bands that I love. I love the three newest albums the most but I also love the first 3 albums they released for completely different reasons.

This album has completely blown me away. IMHO up there with Alchemy Index, Vheissu and TBEITBN. This song is an anthem for me!

I didn't love the last couple of albums, but this one is up there with Beggars and Vheissu. Gonna be playing the hell out of it for a long while.

Yes, yes and yes

[@TheAsphyx666]

OMFG! Just when you thought they couldn't get any better...

[@derrickortiz7318]

Me too!! So cool how they have evolved. Maybe it was all planned?!

[@fleshtaffy]

Deadbolt will always be their best song

[@michaelll]

@@fleshtaffy I agree with that but paper tigers and cold cash and colder hearts are pretty close. Can't forget all the world is mad too. The artist and the ambulance, the illusion of safety and beggars are the 3 albums that are masterpieces.

Hear me out: "The Color of the Sky", played full blast, with the AC set to cool or windows down. Driving on the fwy with no traffic, in the middle of the night. Nothing but you, the road, and the stars. Try it. It's fucking magical. ♥️✨🎶 (Edit: was too excited writing this comment that I had misspelled some words. 😂)

3:45 Words are not really adequate to describe why I like that form of a crescendo. There is so much organized dissonance, yet it still remains melodic. I love that sound in any genre.

[@TheJaker5]

It’s one thing to get experimental, but it’s another thing entirely to make whatever this is and slap your bands name on it. Thrice has been my band for a very long time and I’ve always been down for their avant-garde tendencies. In fact it’s what I’ve loved most about them, but this album might as well be made by a different band cuz there’s barely anything “Thrice” about it and I can’t enjoy it. I had to force myself through listening to it and that makes me very VERY sad

[@moubou118]

you outta your damn mind lol Riley's drumming is a 110% thrice and so is everything else. The storytelling, the damn bass is EPIC as always and so its the harmonies, THIS IS THRICE#

[@KobraKai2388]

Haven’t had a good album since Beggars. Really got turned off when Dustin was encouraging posting bail for all the rioters last summer. Their music for the last decade has been the most dull, mind numbing garbage. And no, I’m not one of those, “play deadbolt!” people. I used to love Thrice. And I loved their experimental tendencies. But the last 3-4 albums have all sounded the same to me. Too bluesy, Dustin’s voice too whiny, lacking in the atmosphere that defined Thrice. Sorry, I’m a lapsed fan.

[@xNimrod97x]

This one I feel like has some majorly different stuff going on. I’m enjoying it so far. Also I hear ya about the rioter stuff. It upsets me too but I don’t have a problem with listening to artists I disagree with, to a certain extent. I’m a Christian so I feel like certain lines are in place haha. But Beggars is my favorite, by far. I feel like the last album was a dud but I’ve liked all the others over time.

[@Kevin-yl8uz]

Did you not like Major/Minor at all? I really like that album. I didn’t know that about the rioters part… However, huge fan of the band and music still. Really like this new album after a few listens.

[@bearj.4363]

How can you think this after the powerhouse of a track like hurricane? And you're pretty one dimensional to think he was "posting bail for rioters" when it was literally for medics that were beat and arrested for providing first aid to people.

[@chadpeacock2064]

weird take. this isn't going to age well.

[@PanasonicYouth21]

Then stop listening.
