With the fresh release of Air and Earth, the last two installments of their self-produced four part concept album The Alchemy Index, Thrice has been on tour awing crowds with their insane artistic diversity. The project began to materialize around a year ago with the idea of creating songs that capture earth’s four elements. Their ability to effortlessly transition from the wide open, soothing sounds Air, and the dark electronic sounds of Water, to the heart scorching sounds of Fire, to the folkie, raw feel of Earth was enough to reshape my thoughts about this four piece band from Orange County in about one hour. Their recent tour ended with 4 southern California shows, one of which they recorded for a live dvd for release sometime in the near future. Check out the new album as well as studio/tour blogs here!
