“Run and tell all of the angels, this could take all night. Think I need a devil to help me get things right..”

 

So is "Dandelion Wine" a Gregory Alan Isakov cover or what?

 

I want some reviews to come out so I can disagree before hearing the record

 

No idea what site this is but here you go, disagree away lol

ALBUM REVIEW: Thrice – Horizons-East

 

lower score than palms, must be wrong

 

I don’t trust people’s random reviews anymore. Fan feedback is the way to go. They can be more critical at times but way more knowledgeable and informative.

 

Especially when those reviews can't get basic facts right, like that this is not self released, it's out on Epitaph.

 

Apparently, Thrice has talked about remixing The Artist in the Ambulance. I'm generally against this sort of thing but this could be interesting.

 

Supposedly the band didn’t like the mix, and they all have a more extensive background in production now to change it if they want/can. It obviously hasn’t slowed down the creative/release process so have at it. It’s definitely not just a cash grab.

Also, I’ve not really heard or remember any significant complaints when the album came out or recently accept maybe a person or two.

 

Knowing Dustin, it's probably a Ray Bradbury reference.

 

We're not that far off from the 20th anniversary so I wouldn't be mad at a remix as part of that celebration.

 

I just want to hear this thing already.

 

After hearing his work via Horizons/East and Kowloon Walled City, I really hope Scott Evans gets the gig.

 

I’m guessing you work with what you got when doing these things so I wonder if the band wants to do it themselves since they seem to have their grievances and that would put it rest. Or, outsource and have a fresh set of ears skilled in that exact department so they can keep moving forward in other areas.

 

Every album always features one song that is along the lines of a love song to Dustin's wife. I wonder if there will be one on this album too.

In the old days, there also was always one song per album inspired by a piece by CS Lewis. With the change in views post-Major/Minor, I doubt we will see that on the new one, but that'll be interesting to see too.

 

What if they did The Alchemy Index Part II? They've been trying to find another concept record idea for years, but Alchemy Index was so brilliant that it'd be interesting to see what Fire, Water, Earth and Air would result in at this stage in their career.

 

I personally don’t feel like they need to. Atlantic was like giving themselves a permission slip to incorporate broader sounds and instrumentation. Alchemy Index proved they could do it really well across a broader span with more variety. Nothing seems unrealistic anymore.

We got lots to look forward to with East and West. When the time comes, I’d love to see what new idea or boundary they want to expand on next, although Alchemy Index is still by far my favourite concept project out there.

 

thats why i enjoy posting on these forums more than reading any review

 

That interests me, something about how that album sounds always held me back from returning to it as much as the following releases.

 

This thing leak yet?

 

yes.

 

Cmon people, just wait one more day

 

Holy fuck "Color of the Sky"!

 

Great opener.

 

Where are people hearing it
