It appears that the Alchemy Index repress is not the box set that is mentioned on the Vagrant website. That is even better news! No, this is definitely the box set they've been teasing for months. Vagrant only has the publishing for Alchemy, Beggars, Major/Minor and TBEITBN. With three of those four already repressed in this run of Vagrant releases, why would they do a box set that only includes a part of the discography.

This has to be the one they were promoting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaro Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 On the 'In Exile' Facebook group, there's a post of someone stating this is not the box set that Vagrant announced. This could be nonsense, of course! On the other hand: the message 'Thrice Box Set release coming soon' is still on the Vagrant website. And why would they announce a box set, when it is a repress of just the one album? So I'm keeping my hopes up 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xfactor675 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) Boxsets for active bands with the possibility of post-boxset releases are stupid though Edited December 12, 2021 by xfactor675 cautionthieves, rhythmgtr5, Corgipants and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said above, Vagrant only has the rights to a fraction of Thrice's discography and they've repressed 75% of those in this run..........so what would could this additional box set actually be?

Money grab? I’m not in tune with most of what’s been mentioned here. But MxPx just had their entire discography repressed and that spanned a couple different labels, so definitely not out of the question. And if anything, while Vagrant has been repressing all their albums, they could be pressing boxset versions as well. Not saying it wouldn’t be a dick move, but not impossible I guess. cautionthieves and Snaro 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhulud Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I've accepted that this will not arrive in time for the weekend. It's OK...my so-called BFF will have to wait for his gift. We haven't spoken in over a week now. He's all twisted up because his wife told him that I made some inappropriate jokes when I was a bit drunk & we were all hanging out at a show...and she claims I was hitting on her...so she felt uncomfortable. I apologized to both of them together and individually, but I guess my apologies weren't accepted cuz I haven't heard a peep from them. So essentially an almost 30 year friendship was ruined by someone who misinterpreted shit and felt that my intent was malicious or creepy. I'm still pretty sore and angry about all this shit.

My exact words: "I will join you in that sentiment". She took as hitting on her and saying that I'd literally join her in the shower. All I know...and I know enough...is that she's always been insecure in herself and the marriage and he control over things...esp. him. He's not as expressive as she would like him to. And they're always fighting about it. He always ends up being the inconsiderate one who doesn't express his love for her 24/7.

If he doesn’t realize what you said was taken out of context, then that’s their fault. His wife seems kind of blowing out of proportion and could be jealous of the friendship ya’ll have? Idk. Judging from the story you just told, it’s nothing to be sorry for. You made innocent jokes. jhulud 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smailtronic Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Mine arrived today. Same gold foil stamping as all the represses, individually numbered on the back. Haven't had a chance to spin it yet, but it sure looks nice. Except for the grey in white C disc; they had to know that was gonna look crappy. cside, IndigoHollow and phillybhatesme 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
