Vhiessu is the best Thrice album IMO.
I only have the most recent 3 but it's my favorite of those 3.

Sigz · « **Reply #281 on:** June 22, 2010, 10:35:16 PM »

For me it's a tossup between The Alchemy Index and Artist in the Ambulance.

Just listened to Beggars the whole way through and god damn it is awesome. What other Thrice should I check out?

Sigz · « **Reply #283 on:** August 07, 2010, 11:41:14 PM »

Everything.

Really, just go backwards through their catalog.

orcus116 · « **Reply #284 on:** August 07, 2010, 11:43:22 PM »

So Artist In The Ambulance or that Four Elements thing first?

Sigz · « **Reply #285 on:** August 07, 2010, 11:46:03 PM »

Alchemy Index first.

I have a feeling Orcus will love The Alchemy index.

I have a feeling any person that isn't a Nazi will love The Alchemy Index.

Listening to Alchemy Index and let's see how you guys think this would work for a concert opener (based on my limited knowledge of Thrice songs):

Digging My Own Grave -> All The World Is Mad

For some reason when I was listening to DMOG all I could think of that ATWIM right after it. Dunno why.

Sigz · « **Reply #290 on:** August 28, 2010, 02:11:14 AM »

To me The Earth isn't Humming needs to come after Digging My Own Grave, just because that's how I've always listened to it. As a concert opener, however, I think it would work pretty well actually. Kind of a weird combo, but it works.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #291 on:** August 28, 2010, 06:39:26 AM »

I decided to check out the Alchemy Index again. I've only listened to the first half so far, and here are my thoughts:

-I'm not big on their hardcore style on "Fire"
-"Water" is freaking awesome.

I remember checking out one of their earlier albums because of this forum and not really getting it, but the Alchemy Index sounds like one of those quirky, pretentious things I would like, so I'll listen to Air and Earth today.

Arcaeus · « **Reply #292 on:** August 28, 2010, 06:59:16 AM »

Air (particularly Daedalus) and Earth are amazing

I haven't listened to those albums in so long... I really should.

What if I told you the heavy part at the end of "Broken Lungs" was better?

EDIT: I think "Air and "Water" are my favorites. "Earth is cool too.

Zantera · « **Reply #295 on:** September 07, 2010, 02:27:43 PM »

Gotta say that im loving The Alchemy Index Volume I & II right now.

Before this i loved Beggars, and thought Vheissu was good, but The Alchemy Index is just pure awesomeness.
Vheissu might grow on me more when i've worked myself backwards in the disco some more.

Love how the Fire-cd sounds so different from the Water-cd, and even though i havent heard Volume III & IV yet, i can imagine that Earth and Air sound different as well.

I'd agree with you partially, but then read this:

The Alchemy Index will always be my favorite Thrice album....listening to the full album ALWAYS blows my mind, it's too great......it shows what other bands need to do: EXPERIMENT!

Gorille85 · « **Reply #298 on:** September 08, 2010, 05:19:22 PM »

I bought The Alchemy Index (vol. 1-4) like 4-5 days ago and I'm simply blown away. I find it hard to listen to something else than Thrice right now. I believe The Artist in the Ambulance is the next logical step?

Sigz · « **Reply #299 on:** September 08, 2010, 05:22:52 PM »

I'd say TAITA or Beggars, then the one you don't get, then Vheissu, then go to their first two.

Gorille85 · « **Reply #300 on:** September 08, 2010, 05:29:39 PM »

OK, will do!

setrataeso · « **Reply #301 on:** September 08, 2010, 10:42:34 PM »

Yeah, their first two should be the last ones you pick up. Unless you thought Fire was not rough enough for you...

Well, I love each and every volumes of The Alchemy Index dearly. They are covering many styles of music and they do it so well it's amazing. So yeah, I wouldn't mind heavier-than-Fire Thrice but I can appreciate the many other aspects of their music as well.

Air is the best of the 4 discs IMO

Well, Artist is where they become true geniuses. Illusion is a great album mainly for it's nut-crunchingly great riffs. Identity Crisis is less interesting, and should be looked at last.

Epic outro. THAT SONG.

Gorille85 · « **Reply #307 on:** September 20, 2010, 02:19:42 PM »

So I just finished my second listen of The Artist in the Ambulance. And while it is a very good record, it is nowhere near the awesomeness of The Alchemy Index IMO. I really like the diversity of their late work and I feel like that is missing from their early output. I'll have to get Beggars soon though. (too many albums to buy OMG!!)

I wasn't blown away by The Artist the first few listen throughs either. But, each song gradually began to grow on me.
Now I think its second only to Beggars for me.

Gorille85 · « **Reply #309 on:** September 20, 2010, 08:48:35 PM »

Yeah I listened to it more tonight and I appreciate it more already! I think I expected an "The Alchemy" part II.

Sigz · « **Reply #310 on:** September 20, 2010, 10:12:16 PM »

Artist in the Ambulance came out way before The Alchemy Index.

Yeah I know that. What I meant is that I kind of expected to hear all of the influences that were on "The Alchemy Index"...like the electronic beats, the folk-rock, the acoustic stuff etc etc.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #314 on:** September 21, 2010, 10:10:39 AM »

Listened to the Alchemy Index again. "Fire" clicked pretty easily this time.

Gonna need to check out another album at some point.
