New Music Recommendations

SoCal’s post-hardcore legends, Thrice, dropped their new record Horizons/West as a follow up to their record Horizons/East from 2021. “…the new full-length album continues Thrice’s bold sonic exploration and philosophical depth, while standing firmly as its own statement. Horizons/West blends cinematic post-rock textures, intricate rhythms, and the raw urgency that defined Thrice’s early work, offering an album that’s equal parts introspection and confrontation.” - Epitaph Records. FFO: Coheed & Cambria, AFI, Thursday, Turnstile.
