Thrice Biography
The following biography
is from
Wikipedia.org
“The
Free Encyclopedia.”
Formed in 1997, Thrice is an American
post-hardcore band from Irvine, California, USA.
In 1999 they self-released an EP called
First Impressions, of which only 1,000 copies were made. In 2000 they
signed-up with Sub City and released two LPs: Identity Crisis and The
Illusion of Safety', the former only receiving 1.5 stars in the AMG
review, while the latter was widely acclaimed and received attention
from major record labels. Unlike their other albums, The Illusion of
Safety contained heavy metalcore influences.
In 2003 they signed up with Island Records
and released The Artist in the Ambulance, which featured more structured
songs while keeping true to their hardcore influences. In 2005 a DVD
outlining their entire career thus far was released under the title If
We Could Only See Us Now. It included a CD with live tracks from the
Apple Store, and various B-sides.
Thrice have recorded their fourth album,
Vheissu, and are traveling with the 2005 Warped Tour. According to an
interview in the January 2005 issue of Alternative Press, Vheissu will
be different from their last album, and will resemble "something you
might hear in a film score; [parts] that move you emotionally on a level
that just comes from the changes of the chords and the notes" (p.94).
The album is scheduled to be released on October 18, 2005 (see 2005 in
music).
