    Really cool sounding track. I know I’ve probably said this before in the thread, but imo this is the most inspired they’ve sounded since the beggars days imho. Not to say TBEITBN or Palms aren’t good albums, but everything since then feels really inspired from them. I think a big part is the production too. To me the production from Horizons sounds like beggars on steroids

    The calmer parts reminds me of Stumbling West, and this would work on a record with Scavengers, so if it's a bside to Horizons/East, single to promote during touring or a Horizons/West single, we win either way. Thrice makes suck interesting music and I love it.

    Song rules. Thrice rules.

    Typically thrice doesn’t just drop singles without either album info or explicitly stating it’s a b side. Interested to see what’s said about it tmw.

    I'm really hoping this is Horizons/West and it's going to go more in this direction. Song is really fucking good.

    Also Scavengers acoustic is fantastic.

    I’m gonna guess it’s a b side given the artwork

    East and West are linked though, so having similar artwork may be intentionally tying the “Horizons” albums. Think back to Alchemy index

    An inconsequential shift as the continents drift.

    cool ending and all but boy I do not like that chorus lol

    Also gonna guess it’s a b-side considering it hasn’t even been a year since H/E was released, they’re releasing it just prior to their tour with Bayside in support of this album, and it has an acoustic version of Scavengers

    I am far more interested in the musical direction this takes than the lyrical/vocal, which isn't always the case with music for me.

    are we still lucky to be here? Prestigious

    Great track from them. Thrice has always had better b-sides than some of the individual tracks from those respective album sessions so this just continues the trend.

    we've seen the shadow of the axe before Supporter

    Love the new track. Probably more than anything on their latest album.

    The single artwork is literally just lifted from the top left corner of H/E lol

    Should've been a split with baysides new track. Both new songs are great!

    They did an ama 2 weeks ago and Dustin said they were recording tracks for a very unique non-Horizons related project that should be out next year. Someone also asked if West would have a different sound than East and Dustin said it probably will but they won't know for sure until they start making it. Sounds like West was put on hold for the time being. New song is probably a b-side from East.

    Song is great. Beginning reminds me of Atlantic a little bit.

    probably over-caffeinated. Supporter

    Love the song, and I really like the chorus. Gave me Touche Amore vibes for some reason I can't quite describe.

  21. It’s from the H/E writing sessions.

    The chorus gives me Gatsbys American Dream vibes. The whole song kind of does with the way it's structured. And here's what Dustin said about in their IG post so yes, it's a b-side:

    “Dead Wake is a tune we were working on during the Horizons/East sessions, but hadn’t completed. I’ve always been fascinated by songs that only have one chord progression, but feel expansive and varied through the use of shifting melodies and layers, and we wanted to play with that format here.” - Dustin

    I'm not mad at this, but weird that he said Horizons/West wouldn't be far off and now saying they haven't started making it. I wonder if the unique project was what started as Horizons/West, but they decided it was too different from East to have any sort of connection.

    Yeah, I've given up on the idea of another record this year.
