It is sadly the final day of Download, the fans are shattered but still going strong and having the time of their lives and the sun has come out strong again for the final day of rock! Check out our review and photos here…
Rock/post-hardcore giants Thrice and Circa Survive are currently entering the final week of a co-headlining tour of North America. We caught up with the tour as it hit Boston’s House of Blues on November 26, 2017 to play before a nearly sold out audience.
The first album from post-hardcore favourites Thrice since the end of their 2012 haitus is intense, influential and exactly what fans expect from the band. Read our review here…
Ahead of the release of their ninth studio album, Thrice have posted a new track online. Check out “Black Honey” here…

This evening, Toronto’s Riot Fest & Travelling Expo has announced the first wave bands to play its flagship festival…
On May 30, Thrice’s “The Farewell Tour” stopped by Toronto where the band would play for the final time. I was lucky to catch this show; I’ve never seen Thrice live before and this would literally be my last chance. Unfortunately openers Animals as Leaders were unable to make the concert, leaving O’Brother to play a double set. This set back included, that night the Kool Haus venue seemed to be filled with a bittersweet atmosphere – entire room was filled with Thrice fans excited to watch one of their favorite bands live, the same fans who were sad this would be the last time the group graced the stage.
Thrice are one of those bands that really can’t put out a bad record. Each one of their releases has been ear pleasing and full of passion (to me personally at least). They’ve been a band who is 100% into taking chances and trying new things and since their release of Vheissu in 2005, the band has not only stepped out of the box, but have smashed the box and burned it’s remains.
Thrice, the legendary OC rock act, have recently announced a September 20th release date for their 7th studio album, Major/Minor, and subsequent tour dates. This will be their 4th album with Vagrant Records (depending on how you view the Alchemy Index releases). Major/Minor is now available for pre-order on the band’s website. Also available on the site is a lyric video of “Promises” (see below), the newest release off Major/Minor and a free download of “Yellow Belly,” released earlier this month.
What I love about Favour the Brave’s new EP is that their music is different than most of the bands I’ve been listening to recently. After one full listen, I just couldn’t help but replay it over and over. It’s refreshing to hear a band that’s much more than a bunch of technical breakdowns accompanied by thrashing guitars and low-pitched screams.
It’s tough to believe that nearly a decade ago, Dustin Kensrue et al. began a Warped Tour-friendly punk band in sunny Orange County.
