THRICE PREPARE TO RELEASE PARTS III & IV OF THEIR EPIC ALCHEMY INDEX

30

Thrice - The Alchemy Index: Air and EarthParts I & II (Fire and Water) of Thrice’s Alchemy Index suite were two of the most impressive release of the second half of 2007. The band is readying the third and fourth installments — Air and Earth — to be released together on April 15th, and from the samples available on their MySpace page these mini-records look just as promising as the first two.

When Thrice announced they’d be releasing a four-part concept album based on the four basic elements I was a bit skeptical; would the band continue some of the excessive noodling of Vheissu or would they tie it all together in a more cohesive form? So far they’ve been remarkably successful with the latter, and I’m greatly looking forward to hearing the second half of their ambitious project.

The Vagrant Records webstore currently has a pre-order available for only $8.99.
