Thrice drop “Scavengers” and announce new album ‘Horizons/East’ —listen
Thrice have announced their 11th studio album, Horizons/East. The album is set to drop via Epitaph Records Sept. 17. The new release was self-produced and recorded by the band—Dustin Kensrue (vocals/guitar), Teppei Teranishi (guitar), Eddie Breckenridge (bass) and Riley Breckenridge (drums)—in their New Grass Studio. The mixing was done by Scott Evans. The announcement comes […]
The announcement comes with the release of the album’s first single, “Scavengers.” On the new track, the cool, gravelly vocals of Kensrue lead listeners through a maze of jagged drum parts and guitar riffs. The juxtaposition of sounds provides a sense of peace in the middle of a musical minefield, giving off the impression of calm under pressure.
Thrice announced the new music on Twitter, writing, “We are extremely excited to announce our new record, Horizons/East, out digitally September 17th (Physical available October 8) on@epitaphrecords. Pre-orders are available NOW, plus you can hear our first single from the record, “Scavengers”, athttps://thrice.ffm.to/horizonseast.”

“Scavengers” lyrics:
Overhead, are those angels or vultures? Heavy wings and the hum of decay They seethe and hover Skew and smother the light of day
Every word is dissonant whisper They’ve got you wearing a smile like a mask And all you’re left with Is every question you’re scared to ask
I will find you In the black light Of that cold dry land Never mind who Held you last night Come and take my Come and take my hand
Every tether is tangled and twisted They slowly sever your heart from the whole Iron shackles, hungry jackals with eyes like coal
Underfoot, as you steal past the gallows Brittle branches or pieces of bone? Feel your chest heave Are you ready to come back home?
I will find you In the black light Of that cold dry land Never mind who Held you last night Come and take my Come and take my hand
I will find you In the black light Of that cold dry land Never mind who Held you last night Come and take my Come and take my hand
I will find you In the black light Of that cold dry land Never mind who Held you last night Come and take my Come and take my hand
I will find you In the black light Of that cold dry land Never mind who Held you last night Come and take my Come and take my hand
