Oooo.. good music!

Hello people.
Today I wanna talk about Thrice. It is rare that such a band can evolve so beautifully and neatly from one record to the next... and always remain ahead of the game!
I first got into Thrice on their debut - and at the time, I thought they had some of the best, most classically crafted good songwriting around.
Then the next album, and the next, and now the most recent.. they have gone from punk rock, to hardcore, to emo, to ambient, to moodscapes... but it's still all Thrice.
Does any of this make sense? Probably not.
What I am trying to say, is that I believe they are one of only a few bands that have matured with age - and still remained interesting and exciting (Deftones and The Dillinger Escape Plan also fit this)...
Yeah.. so basically.. Thrice have a new album out soon.. 'The Alchemy Index, Vols 1 and II: Fire And Water' (what a mouthful!). Its part one of their four element series. And it's pretty damn cool.
Perhaps you should check it out. Up to you. www.myspace.com/thrice

Rant over.
