radiatorhums Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Finally got around to listening to the single and it's a full on dud for me. I definitely hear what people are saying about it sounding like a generic hard rock song. I hope it works better in the album than it does as a stand alone song.

I definitely hear what people are saying about it sounding like a generic hard rock song. I hope it works better in the album than it does as a stand alone song. Me too. I thought Beggars royally sucked for the first few months of listening to it, but it's really grown on me. These guys are great song writers, I'm sure the album will rock.

Derek™ Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I'm sure the album will rock. Me too. I just hope it doesn't butt-rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I'm still surprised that even with Dustin's voice here, people are calling this "generic radio rock". I think his voice is what makes it really stand out from that. If it was any other vocalist, I'd probably agree. But his voice is just far and away better than most people.

Juturna90 Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Thrice posted an in studio update for TBEITBN. The song playing throughout sounds pretty promising and more how I thought they would sound with this album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippielauryn Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I agree the song was a bit of a let down, but I feel like Thrice typically releases the worst song on the album as a preview. I'm not worried about this album being terrible. Thrice is one of the few bands that continues to push the envelope, and grow with their music. Dustin's voice is so different than what he has done on the last couple records, so I'm excited to listen to the album as a whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperg1ant Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Song snippets sounds really good, and there's some heavy stuff. Really stoked for the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zuck Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 That song in the video sounds awesome. Theres no way this album won't be good. Thrice is incapable of making bad music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tj187 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 To me, it's always slightly mind blowing, to hear from bands you grew up listening to for years and years, while I became slightly successful, going to college and starting a career, that the artists I looked up to say stuff like, "I was just working in a coffee shop" I'm not trying to be an ass, but you forget that these artists are not rich and famous and are trying to make ends meet like you are. It's very cool and humbling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tj187 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 You just spend so much money on their music and concerts, you tend to forget they aren't all millionaires. If that makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I was honestly really surprised when he said that. He could at least be working at a Guitar Center. From my experience in coffee shops, I'd guess he makes way more money over as a barista than he could at Guitar Center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never worked in either, so I have no idea. Most of my buddies would work there between touring / recording. That and PF Changs. Haha.

mattisr1984 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I was honestly really surprised when he said that. He could at least be working at a Guitar Center. Not saying working in a coffee shop would be much more awesome but it's a way more under the radar. if I was a guy in a band that had any sort of notable success, im pretty sure the last place I'd wanna work at or be seen at by people afterward is a guitar center. All its gonna take is one person to realize that one dude that played bass in thrice works there and pretty much nobody's gonna wanna talk about anything other than that to him. Plus, it just kinda plays up that "washed-up musician" cliche a little too close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I thought this was a pretty good read, for anyone interested. Dustin talks about the single, direction of the band going forward, and even has some lols at the knee-jerk reactions from trolls and whiny fans – a VC shoutout would've been awesome, but oh well.
