Thrice - Palms (September 14, 2018) Album • Page 205

its a good album dont get me wrong. as I said the highs are high. influential for post hardcore too.

 

How dare he interrupt the vinyl troubleshooting with thrice thoughts!

 

My mother was an Austrian Finnish Swede.

 

wat

 

Vinyl talk > terrible thrice talk

 

It's not my fault that Thrice and I have the same level of indifference toward TAITA.

 

We get it dude

 

It's so strange.

 

I'm sorry, Denmark.

 

Wunderbar

 

I remember you in protest of a prayer

 

We lost a lot of fans 13 years ago. We also became legends. #Vheissu

 

Sounds like it’s a good day to have MikeJ blocked.

Vheissu is anything but boring. What a shit take.

 

Wait.

No.

Hold. On.

Did you just say that your own bands are your favorite?

 

Yes, lol

 

Yes, I wouldn't make music if it wasn't something I want to hear and am not hearing anywhere else.

Dave Grohl in 2002 via Rolling Stone:

What’s your driving soundtrack?

"I have the most kick-ass stereo, which is actually stuck in a BMW M5. I have a six-CD changer, with ELO’s Greatest Hits on CD-1; CD-2 I got Slipknot’s Iowa, I can’t remember what’s in three. . . . Oh, yeah, three, four, five and six are all me. .”

 

And I’m out.

 

...can I hear it?

 

Someday. Maybe you've already heard it.

 

There are a couple people with whom I’ve played in bands and they hardly listen to music other than stuff they recorded. It’s kinda annoying but it exists for sure.

Stark contrast from the band people I look up to (ie Thrice) who don’t like hearing themselves years after finishing something.

 

I know musicians like to pretend that they don't dig or listen to their own stuff, but it's rarely true. I've only gotten to know one band, a monster pop band, that weren't shy about hating their own music (but loving the paycheck).

 

The usual reason for why bands say that is because writing, demoing, tracking and touring on the same music can make you sick of that music. But, make no mistake, they still loved and listened to the music when it was fresh. When they put some distance between them and their music, they rediscover that initial affinity.

 

Yes. And professional artists hang up their own paintings at home and directors go on Netflix and watch their own shows and films

 

I know TV writers who tune into each broadcast of their own shows even though they've seen the episodes countless times by that point.

There's no shame in liking what you make, especially if it's yours. If I was hired to play in some other person's group and wasn't part of the songwriting process, then that's another story.

With Thrice, it belongs to each of them.
