Thrice - To Be Everywhere Is To Be Nowhere (May 27, 2016) Album • Page 96

I'm always amazed that Image of the Invisible doesn't get more love here. Such an amazing song, and such a great bridge between Artist and Vheissu-era Thrice. I'll never forget watching Thrice perform on their farewell tour and feeling the entire room shake during the verse.

 

Every Thrice song has great parts. However, Moths doesn't come together as a song. The chorus is awful and the main riff is stock. But yes, great verses and bridge/outro. Flags and Glory are better songs from start to finish.

 

Flags of Dawn not being on Vhessiu was a crime.

Beggars cut out 2 songs and, it was the right move, cause the album is perfect as it is.

 

Red Telephone is amazing. But yeah, it doesn't fit on that record.

 

Yeah I like it but it would have killed the flow of the album.

 

Of Dust And Nations is fire.

Probably my favorite on Vheissu next to The Earth Will Shake.

 

Image is a GREAT song, just think every other track on Vheissu is better.

I'd trade answered for Doublespeak any day and I think that would still have nice flow to the album... and red telephone for talking through glass.

 

*swats your hand away from Beggars track listing*

 

On no planet is Like Moths to Flame remotely close to forgettable.

 

Like Moths To Flame is one of the only songs I've never gotten into on Vheissu, as well as Between The End And Where We Lie. The rest is tight though.

 

My brother sent me this picture yesterday:

 

Thrice Setlist at Shrine Expo Hall, Los Angeles

What do you all think of the setlist for this tour?

 

I think it will be different every night but if these are some of the songs they are bringing to the table than I am stoked

 

Setlist looks amazing.

 

I just can't believe how much incredible music this band has given me over the years. We are really lucky

 

Hurricane has been the only Thrice song that's made me tear up. True story.

 

my ranking up to now:

vheissu
TBEITBN
AI: 1/2
TAITA
M/m
TIOS
AI: 3/4
beggars
IC

 

Just can't see how anyone could have artist in the ambulance over beggars.

Vheissu and alchemy index 1/2 are the only things we have in common

 

Will get back to ya on that mate, not had time to internetz enough.

 

Yeah, probably my least favourite Thrice song. Bottom 5 in any case. (moths).

 

"In Years To Come" sounded exceptional with Dustin's current voice. Despite seeing Thrice a million times, I've never heard "For Miles" live as it's a top 5 Thrice song as far as I'm concerned. "Wood and Wire" was great to hear live as well. Dustin added a line or two during the outro.

My only "complaint" is the decision to play "Treading Paper" as the only other M/m song besides "Anthology."

 

How did "The Long Defeat" sound live? I've got my fingers crossed they'll be playing a very similar setlist to this when they come to London in August.

 

I will always remember Moth's verses and bridge/outro but that's exactly the problem I'm trying to convey here.

As a complete song, it's nowhere near as good as Glory or Flags. Moth's main riff is so stock/rudimentary/basic for a band like Thrice while the chorus vocal/melody doesn't make up for it whatsoever. Usually Dustin can elevate an average piece of music but not in Moth's case.

They've admitted that they regret not putting one of the b-sides on Vheissu and I think that Moths would've been the song they'd cut if they had to pick one.

 

I have no idea what Moths sounds like

 

Moths is one of my favorite thrice songs. The screaming at the end. Just love how the song builds
