Really? I think his vocals sound fucking awesome on this, especially the high note in the chorus.

Still pretty standard single, though, I end up liking the singles the least usually when it comes to Thrice, but it's still really good.

I agree it wasn't their best song. Reminds me more of Dustin's solo stuff than Thrice. It's a more straightforward song than their best stuff, but it is a single, so it's probably one of the more basic songs on the album.

I wish they could experiment much more like on The Alchemy Index. This sounds like a b-side from Beggars or Major/Minor and as it has already been stated here, it's nice but nothing very special.

I'm really glad they're back, tho.  :D

Gone 5 years and that's what they come back with. I liked beggars, but major/minor didn't really do that much for me and neither does this new song, mainly because I know they are capable so much more.

I thought it was surprisingly straight forward and poppy on first listen, but from the second listen on I thought this song is just amazing. That high note at the end of the bridge is just.. wow.

I'm really looking forward to this. I thought the single was really good for what it was, just that I wanted much more.

Been listening to so much Thrice lately in preparation for the new one. Cannot wait!

I hope they have a song on par with Circles and Words In The Water I terms of emotion and beauty.

I've seen in their FB page 5 songs that inspired the new record and one of them was Big Riff by Cave In. I expect something heavy in their new album now

First listen this morning didn't blow me away but there were several awesome moments. I need to give it some more less distracted listens to fully digest it.

I feel that same way about the new album as I did about major/minor. Its just ok

I love old thrice and I love new thrice, but that love stops after beggars. The direction they went in for that album was fresh back in 2009 and I liked it a lot, but hearing it again for two more albums doesn't really do it for me.

Idk I'll have to disagree with your comment on the direction man, I mean I think there's a bit of Major/Minor throughout this one, but overall it feels more like a combination of Beggars, Vheissu, and parts from the Alchemy Indexes

So I just finished my first listen and I think it's a pretty solid album. Hurricane is by far and away my favorite song on it, one of their greatest songs. Looking forward to hearing that one live. There were only 2 songs that didn't click with me and those were The Window and Wake Up. Maybe those need some time to grow on me. Other than that, awesome album!

I'm with you, Adamn. I like Major/Minor just fine, but this has a great deal more warmth and energy.

Goddamn there is some gorgeous stuff on this album.

Those are probably my least favorite too, but they are still solid songs. I also felt that way about Whistleblower at first, but it grew on me and I love it now, so maybe that will happen with those two.

Yessir! It's got a lot of post-rock-esque areas that I really, really enjoy and the occasional uplifting tone throughout the album is quite enjoyable.

Had my first listen just now, and I have to say that it's pretty good. Clear standouts on the first listen were Hurricane, Black Honey and Salt and Shadow. The rest probably just need a few more listens to grow on me, but they haven't been doing a whole lot for me so far.

I'm happy with the new album. It's solid and there's definitely enough of that energy. As a whole it's a bit darker than Major/Minor, which I like. Then again, some songs or sections are a bit sugary, like Stay With Me. I cannot stand that song at all at this point.

Instrumentally they seem as focused as ever, fat drum and bass grooves and gnarly telecasters (The Window) all over the place. Dustin sings amazing of course, but his voice has gotten even more gruff. Not a bad thing, but the vocals do seem somewhat overproduced/multitracked which gives this album that slightly more radio-rock sound.

Solid album, not a masterpiece a la the song Beggars or Daedalus here - the album's way too straightforward for that - but just a collection of cool songs.

Favorite tracks atm: Hurricane, The Window, Black Honey.

Oh man, Stay With Me is one of my favorites on the album. Together with Hurricane and Salt and Shadow.

I'd put Salt and Shadow as a Thrice masterpiece. It's beautiful, the lyrics are really good, and the melody is so haunting.

And I too love Stay With Me!

The Long Defeat is growing on me more and more. Hasn't beaten Hurricane as my favorite on the album, but it could.
