Review: Thrice – Palms
“Are you ready for my soul?/What if I’m broken from the start?/And what if I never heal?” lead vocalist Dustin Kensrue, of Thrice, sings on the sixth song on Palms. This outpouring of emotion is what we have come to expect from Thrice over the years, but the honesty and earnestness of Kensrue’s delivery feels different with this great album. Thrice have a back catalog of albums that most artists would be envious of, and on their ninth studio album, they could have gone in any number of directions. The most important course for Thrice has always been forward, as they have improved upon their unique brand of rock as they continue to evolve as artists.
Pinegrove Address “Sexual Coercion” and Announce a New Album
Jenn Pelly, writing at Pitchfork:
Since late 2017, both the band and the alleged victim have focused on coming to a private resolution via a trusted mediator. Until that resolution was reached, Hall said, “there was really no way for us to offer any clarification” to their fans. It was the alleged victim’s request that Pinegrove take a year off from touring and that Hall enter therapy. “We wanted to honor that,” Hall said. “She recognized that we’ve honored it, and has since approved our plan to release an album and play some shows later on this year.” (Their mediator confirmed this.)

Lavisher have released their new music video for “Syzygy.” The song comes from the band’s debut, self-titled, EP. You can check that out on Spotify and Apple Music.
Lavisher are a rock outfit from Chicago that often draw comparison to Failure, A Perfect Circle, and Queens of the Stone Age. The band describes their darkly uplifting songwriting as “minimalist poetry with stabs of virtuosity.” Front-man and principal songwriter Gavin Cushman III softens the hard edges with restrained melodic vocals while drummer Idin Alexander pounds rhythms into calculated eruptions.
