I think milly michaelson is the only song on TAI that I don't love.

Come on you weary is soooo great, and the whaler's ending makes me feel like I could have an out of body experience :hefdaddy

Yeah I dunno, I love their slow songs but it just seems a bit too simple. Give me a few more listens ;)

In the meantime, ALL THE WORLD IS MAAAD!

Wouldn't that change the sound of the album?

I have a hard time seeing SW's production style fit Thrice's music.

Also, I hate you Faemir for that link. Totally blue balled me.

Yeah it took me about halfway to start laughing. I'm surprised to see the color EPs are real, though. That seems overly ambitious.

Man, I thought I was listening to too much Thrice - like 3/4 album plays per day, no other bands.

So today I'm listening to Vheissu instead of beggars/TAI ;D

Why are thrice so unknown? I've seen little to nothing about them except in the last few weeks, and yet if you look at online reviews the overall professional and fan reception to all of their albums is consistently stellar.

Just listened to all four volumes of The Alchemy Index for the first time. Totally mindblowing. So good.

I think Water was my favorite, but "Daedalus" is definitely the best song on all four albums.

Listening to the four volumes all together for the first was an incredible experience. The Alchemy Index is nothing short of a masterpiece.

It's hard ranking Thrice albums, but The Alchemy Index is easily my favorite, with Beggars coming up second.
Vheissu is also great, but i haven't really given it more then 3-4 spins.

Got many albums left to check out as well. :)

8. Music Box

Ha I can't think of any other band or song that uses the sound of a music box in the intro to a song.

OH YEAH? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wvYOV_IKH8 (is that even a music box? :P)

In a separate interview with MusicFashionMagazine, he also stated that the band might be "bringing back some more mathy elements" and drawing from their heavier influences, such as Botch.[51] A tentative release date in 2011 is anticipated for the new album.[52]

One thing that fascinates me about this band is the evolution of their sound. At The Artist In The Ambulance it's really "OMG music :caffeine: !!!" and it seems by the time The Alchemy Index rolled around it was like "Holy shit...we can write different styles, and well". I don't mean any of that in a bad way since I'm digging all the stuff I have by them a ton.

It has some un-fucking-believable songs on it, but overall it feels lacking in some way compared to Artist-Vheissu-TAI. Still a great album though.

I do really, really like Daedalus, but it still hasn't quite clicked to become 'OH MY GOD' amazing for me like it has for others here yet. It's very, very good though.

Yeah, I have listens where its WOAH and listens where its good. It'll get there eventually I guess.

edit: I'm listening to Vheissu, I've heard it once before. I've barely gotten my head around Beggars and TAI, I love Thrice :D

I love that, the first listen of an album that you know will take loooads of listens to fully appreciate. Looking back on that first listen is always fun, I like seeing what my perception of the band was, and how wrong it was.  :lol

I thought the same thing at first...but I think it was more because I was surprised by the lack of diversity. It took me some listens and now I love it to death! :tupmore

Well I'm not much keen into post-hardcore, I already loved the title track, but it's just not as strong, their sound change was not just a sound change - you can tell they really pushed themselves musically.

It's funny because I said the same thing. And the title track was the only song from that album that I loved right away too. It's not my favorite Thrice album by any means, all I say is that maybe it'll grow on you.
