Thrice - To Be Everywhere Is To Be Nowhere (May 27, 2016) Album • Page 41

Pretty disappointed we don't have a stream yet, I know they don't owe me a single thing, but man do I wanna listen to this. I blasted the Hotelier for a couple days straight and I love that album, but I always find myself thinking about this instead.

 

How do you pronounce that band name? I'm uninitiated.

 

I've been pronouncing it hot-liar. I'm probably wrong.

 

Didn't they used to be The Hotel Year? So I was always under the impression it was pronounced hoteleer

 

Pronunciation guides in YouTube say it like ho-tel-yer.

 

That seems the rational conclusion of pronunciation. I've just not subscribed to it in my two weeks of being a fan.

 

Which one? Still think I'm right. But I haven't listened to the band but once.

 

Hotel-year. Makes the most sense.

I probably sound pretentious pronouncing it hot-liar.

 

How to pronounce hotelier in English

 

What's going to be the quickest way to find this album in lossless that isn't paying $20 for a Tidal copy?

Bummed, and assuming, that my vinyl preorders won't be netting me anything more than 320 mp3s.

 

It's pronounced "hotel year," which used to be their band name.

 

The time signature variations in Death From Above have me psyched (although I haven't listened to it yet). I was just thinking about how crazy "Blur" is in that regard (are there other good examples?). It's a strength of theirs that should definitely be getting utilized, so I'm glad to hear that it is.

 

You are actually bummed that you will be listening for the first time at 320kbps ha

 

Oh no. I'll enjoy the 320. I just want lossless as soon as I can get it.

 

Why hasn't this leaked yet! I know it's out there somewhere

DISCLAIMER: I preordered it so do not feel bad listening to a leak

 

One of my favorite things about Thrice is sometimes making odd time signatures sound so natural ie Wood and Wire has 7/4. Words in the water in 5/4 and some stuff in Artist. Pretty sure Fire EP has the most unusual time sigs. like Firebreather and Backdraft's Chorus need to listen to remember what the time sigs were. Trust alternates a bit too. Blood Clots has a section that goes from 5/8 ,6/8 ,7/8 to 4/4

 

I quite like the time signature variations of Trust

 

The section right after the first chorus of The Arsonist, before Dustin starts singing/whispering, is one of the best parts of this band's entire discography.

 

I'd be happy if this somehow gets to me tomorrow, VA isn't far from MD, let's do this thing FedEx

 

Me when we get the album:

 

Holy shit I've never seen this

 

If BOTS is one of the worst songs on here, then this is going to be the greatest album ever recorded.

 

"Blood on the Sand" is a top three track imo

 

What's your other 2? Or do you wanna keep the mystique for your review tomorrow? haha

 

Again, I'm only going off what I've read and heard so far (which is everything). The top tier comes up consistently.
