Thrice in review
Joe Buglio/ Online Reporter
Issue date: 4/25/08 Section: in Review(s)
It makes you feel as if you were in the room with the band while they were recording.
One of the standout songs on this disc is the song "Digging My Own Grave." This song gives you the feel of Kensrue singing in an old western Salon, full with piano and finger snapping.
The song "Come All You Weary" really sets the tone for the disc. The songs chorus will send chills down your spine upon the first listen and the hundredth listen.
The sonnet on the Earth disc is called "Child of Dust" and is easily the most powerful sonnet and song of the entire experiment of "The Alchemy Index."
Thrice experimented with different sounds to convey the element as well. For this sonnet they recorded the sound of a shovel digging while they buried a microphone underground in a box.
Kensrues vocals create a chilling tone throughout the song. The song is set up as if it's a progression at a funeral. The final two lines of the couplet read, "Now here beneath the wisdom and their feet, here I will teach you truly how to speak." When I first heard this at the end of the song mixed together with the digging of the shovel [associating it with a burial] I almost shed a tear.
The songs on this project are amazing, especially if you know where this band has come from. If you are new to Thrice you will easily be able to dive into this album and enjoy every second of it.
Thrice is a band that makes music for their own personal reasons and don't let music industries restrict them.
They make meaningful music that deeply touches their listeners and have succeeded all expectations on this project.
From here Thrice can dive into any type of musical genre for their next project, and I can't wait to hear it.

I think when reading this sounds exciting, then hope that the actual disc will be the greatest sounding.

I disagree with the above remark. I think in these tough economic times we need to rethink our old ways of thinking.
