larry47591 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 THRICE ANNOUNCE ANTHOLOGY TO BE RELEASED OCTOBER 2012 4-LP/2-CD LIVE SET RECORDED DURING RECENT FAREWELL TOUR (July 17, 2012) - “Thrice in concert, on this tour more than ever, was a career on display,” stated Billboard Magazine about the recently completed farewell tour undertaken by Southern California’s THRICE. The Orange County-based four-piece announced a hiatus last fall after 13 years together and eight full-length releases. Along the tour, live audio was recorded at select stops and has now been compiled into Anthology, which will be released on Staple Records/Workhorse Music Group in October. The live recording will be available digitally, on two CDs, and as a limited edition box set containing four LP’s. The CD and LP packages will contain booklets featuring extensive live photos from the tour as well. A must-have item for collectors, MTV noted in their show review that, “the group covered their vast catalog with a lengthy set list, which was created using fan’s votes on the band’s website, that left the mourning crowd wanting more,” while the band’s hometown daily paper, the O.C. Register added, “…an epic performance culled from all points in their catalog that will loom large in their legend — and their career in general, which had reached personal-best peaks with the last two albums, 2009’s turning point Beggars and its tension-filled follow-up Major/Minor, from last September.” Thrice released their first proper full-length, Identity Crisis, in 2001 and quickly stormed to the forefront of the indie music scene as listeners rejoiced and formed what can only be described as a cult following. Thrice went on to release six highly praised albums – fan favorites The Illusion Of Safety (2002), The Artist In The Ambulance (2003) and Vheissu (2005), the brilliant and intricate four-piece concept album The Alchemy Index: Fire and Water (2007) and Earth and Air (2008), and the band-centric masterpiece, Beggars (2009). Thrice released their most recent full length, Major/Minor, last September. Thrice has become a staple in the alternative-modern-rock world for nearly ten years now and is known for effortlessly and continuously releasing groundbreaking records.

gmoney Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 What's the point after repressing all their stuff in the past couple of months? Oh, cash grab. Cool. Agreed - I have a hard time believing anyone would listen to a 4LP set of this more than once or twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ifworkpermits Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 What's the point after repressing all their stuff in the past couple of months? Oh, cash grab. Cool. Cash Grab... yes... but it is at least different than a re-press since it is live recordings... I just wish there were more songs I would have liked to hear *cough cough paper tigers* at the show that would make this box set more enticing.

3arl Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Never been a big fan of live albums. Probably gonna pass on this one. It'll probably be expensive as hell too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezfools Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I'll skip on this unless the price is too good to pass, which is unlikely, but we'll see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daegor Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Will buy, as they sell out right away. If I'm not happy with the tracklisting/audio quality I'll sell it, I'm picky about live albums, and I traditionally don't but live albums on vinyl.

llamason56 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I would hope it'd be around the $50-$60 price range but that's probably wishful thinking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larry47591 Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 I would hope it'd be around the $50-$60 price range but that's probably wishful thinking I am afraid it will be like 100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larry47591 Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 https://www.facebook.com/staplerecords This is senses fail's new label. I am pretty sure it is a sub-label of vagrant. But not really sure why they posted it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaulManella Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 theres no way this isn't going to be overpriced. A good thing to do to keep the cash cow flowing is just repress The Alchemy Index while the hiatus hype is still around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlippingOut Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Will buy. Hope our collective bank accounts don't take too hard a hit. And totally agree on the Alchemy Index repress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
