Lines about Dragonball Z?

 

"And like a saiyan i wont grow, unless im battered in the fray"

 

Still haven't heard it. Have no idea what to expect lol

 

I like the new song but I loved Blood on the Sand. Still very stoked for the new album.

 

I was wondering why I hadn't heard it. Found out it was from their shit album. Not affected. Love the new song though.

 

For some reason I think black honey sounds similar to "at the bottom" by brand new at certain parts of the song. On first listen that's what popped into my head after hearing this

 

I hear that too. The moment the drums kick in and that riff starts up, very At The Bottom-esque but sharper and hookier.

And I'm going to disagree on the lyrics - I think they're written simply but bring fantastic imagery and depth of thought. Like most of Dustin's other lyrics, they go a step further than surface-level (American oil wars, foreign intervention) and get at deeper issues: men driven by greed and hubris, the consequences of taking what you please, and the folly in repeating that and expecting different results. Plus I dig the almost Animal Farm blending of man and bear - really conveys the simplicity and brutishness of the narrator, and Dustin's growl and the dirtier tone really sell those themes.

Side note: I can't wait to hear the album-quality version of this. There are some harmonies that don't come through very well on the stream, and I want to hear that guitar/bass tone properly!

 

Lmao

 

Very well said, man.

 

What's everyone's favorite song from each Alchemy EP?

For me:

The Arsonist
The Whaler
Daedalus
Child of Dust

 

The Messenger
Night Diving
Daedalus
Moving Mountains

 

Firebreather
Night Diving
Daedalus
Come All You Weary

 

Firebreather, Open Water, The Sky Is Falling, and Come All You Weary are all VERY close seconds.

 

The Arsonist
Digital Sea
Silver Wings
Come All You Weary

That was hard though, especially on Air.

 

Discogs

Holy shit someone sold First Impression ep about a year ago for $320

 

Like @Jason Tate "underappreciated blink-182 songs" here's my list of underappreciated Thrice songs :)

 

Lost Continent is probably my favorite song from Water and I'd probably say the same as The Arsonist from Fire.

 

The Arsonist
Night Diving
Broken Lungs (Daedelus is an extremely close second)
Come All You Weary

 

The Arsonist
Lost Continent
Broken Lungs
Come All You Weary

 

Messenger
Open Water
Daedalus
Child of Dust

 

Firebreather
Kings Upon the Main
Broken Lungs
Moving Mountains

 

Hmm....

The Messenger
Night Diving
Silver Wings
Child Of Dust

 

Messenger
Whaler
Daedalus
Come all you weary

 

The Arsonist
Open Water
Broken Lungs/Daedalus YOU CAN'T MAKE ME CHOOSE
Moving Mountains

 

I feel like Burn the Fleet is an underrated Thrice song. It's like sad and uplifting at the same time. And heavy.
