Thrice will release The Alchemy Index: Volumes 1 and 2 via Vagrant Records on October 16th.
Taking an unsullied approach to the writing, recording and production of their upcoming release, the decision to find a new record label was evident and expected for Orange County’s critically lauded, Thrice. Assuming control of their creative direction, Thrice has parted ways with Island records after releasing 2003’s The Artist and The Ambulance and 2005’s Vheissu, and have signed with Vagrant Records, on which they will release the four-volume Alchemy Index.

The Alchemy Index: Vols. I & II – Fire & Water will be released on October 16th, 2007, with The Alchemy Index: Vols. III & IV – Earth & Air to be released in Spring of 2008. The specific details about this ambitious project will be revealed over the next few weeks.

Stretching their innovation even further Thrice’s, Dustin Kensrue, Teppei Teranishi, Riley Breckenridge & Ed Breckenridge, expressed their musical diversity resulting in their most stunning effort to date. The Alchemy Index is an uncompromising artistic collection that represents the band’s evolution and shatters conventional boundaries. This quartet prides themselves on continually pushing the envelope creating the dynamic sound they call their own. It is this equilibrium that helps the band develop such richly crafted tracks and in doing so, it raises the bar once again for all that follow.

Founded in 1996, Vagrant Records is headquartered in Los Angeles, California. For The Alchemy Index, Thrice joins a diverse roster featuring artists like The Eels, The Hold Steady, Dashboard Confessional and Paul Westerberg.
In support of the first installment of The Alchemy Index, Thrice will be headlining a 9 week Ã¢â‚¬” 42 date U.S. tour with Brand New.

Thrice Finish New Album

July 5, 2007 By Bryce Jacobson Leave a Comment

Thrice has finished up their new album and are currently looking for a new label to put it out. You can read a full update below.

Sorry for the lack of updates, I’ve been waiting to have the actual masters back in our hands before I told you all that WE ARE DONE! Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. We actually finished mixing a couple weeks ago, but have been going back and forth with the mastering. I wanted to wait to say we’re done till we were completely done, but I felt bad for holding out for so long. Anyhow, I was supposed to get the revised mastering back today but it didn’t arrive for some reason. We should have the discs within the next couple days and if we OK it, then it’s all done. Other than that, we’ve started our search for a new label to get this project out to you guys. We’ll keep you all informed as things develop. But yeah, being done is nice. I was nearly going insane by the end of that. Phew!
