I have always compared them to the Beatles. Consistently changing their sound, socially aware. Very glad someone showed them to me back in 2001. This is one of the only bands I still listen to on an everyday basis.
It runs chills down my spine to think that they were 25ish here and they could pull out such songs. Truly an inspiration, not a single album underperforming, yet able to reinvent themselves over and over through time. Unsung, low-profile heroes of 2000 music.
I just turned 40 this year, and every year around fall, since I first experienced Thrice, they come back into rotation. Through marriage, loss of friends, 3 babies, divorce, second marriage, mother passing, these guys unknowingly sang and played me through it, kept my faith, and helped me onward and upward. I'm still so humbled by the lyrics, and I have created 3 new people who are nostalgic for thier music. It's just amazing what beautiful art can accomplish.
Two tours in Iraq and a long recovery.. I still hear this song and it reminds me of sitting in front of my hut and just looking at the stars and dreaming of home. Now I look at the stars and dream of a time I would love to re visit.
"Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal" - Matthew 6:19-20
They were so ahead in time! So many of these great songs! The love & spirit they give to everthing they truly shows! In 2004 I almost lost my life & these guys saved it! I owe them with truth & spreading of the light! The light will never die just like the spirit!
Lyrics guys: The towers that shoulder your pride The words you've written in stone Sand will cover them, sand will cover you The streets that suffer your name Your very flesh and your bones Sand will cover them, sand will cover you So put your faith in more than steel Don't store your treasures up, with moth and rust Where thieves break in and steal Pull the fangs from out your heel We live in but a shadow of the real Step out from time, see the dust of nations Step out from time, hear the stars ovation Saturn will not sleep, until the sand has made us clean Still we stack our stones and bury what we can But it all will be undone, and nothing built under the sun Will ever stand before the endless march of sand
I dont recall ever being able to listen through a whole album of any artist until I ran into Thrice.. this was back in.. 9th grade? bloody hell, they have been with me for well over 13 or 14 years.. they sure have shaped the way I see the world in certain perspectives.
I cannot get over this song. It has not left my head since I heard it back when I was in high school, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Freaking brilliant.
Been a fan since '05 and while The Alchemy Index is my favorite album(s) by them, this is still my favorite song. And this acoustic version is even better.
Probably my favourite performance of my favourite song by Thrice. I always eventually share it with the people who mean something to me. Some love it, some don't. I hope they have a song that makes them feel the same way.
it's not only the music, but also the lyrics that I love about this band.... makes you wonder what he was thinking the moment he wrote them. There's nothing more to be said.... amazing song!
I started listening to thrice 15 years ago and now I'm sitting here listening to it with my 2 yr old son and he's speechless. Same reaction I had when I first heard them.
How the hell could four people have accidentally clicked dislike? Apparently UA-cam needs to spread apart the thumbs up and the thumbs down. Thrice = Greatest band of all time
I picked up an EP off the dusty ground at the Warped Tour about eight years ago and from that first song until now I have grown up with THRICE as the soundtrack to my life! So inspirational and motivational these artists are!!
I love how Dustin never opens his eyes while playing, haha. Seriously though, so gorgeous. This is definitely one of my all-time favourite Thrice songs, and this performance of it is just stunning.
I'm a 23 year old female and these guys are my ALL TIME FAVORITE BAND!!! I just seen them in Vegas and they were beyond amazing!!!! Dustin is so yummy!!! :))
This version is incredible, I really love it, but it's a bit unfortunate that Teppei made that little pedal mistake at 1:20. It kinda pulls me out of the immersion every time I listen to it lol.
I think it's using tower of Babel imagery, but the chorus is quoting the Bible in St. Matthew 6:20 "But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal." the line "pull the fangs from out your heel" refers also to a passage of the Bible in Genesis 3:15- and refers to the bite of the devil against the peace of humanity and the triumph of the 'seed of the woman' that would crush that serpent's head- Jesus.

Thrice are criminally underrated, i feel blessed to be one of the lucky ones to have discovered them
Still here, still listening to Thrice, still the most underrated band of all time! This song is a masterpiece.
Thrice is the best but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🤘🐺
They don’t push the narrative of the music industry which is satanic, thus they will never be “main stream” I like it that way.
Honestly Thrice should be considered at the level similar to a new era led zeppelin. Most underrated band of all time...
Indeed, But hey.. THRICE 2015 !!!!!
Xzursia One of the few bands that literally no one hates.
I have always compared them to the Beatles. Consistently changing their sound, socially aware. Very glad someone showed them to me back in 2001. This is one of the only bands I still listen to on an everyday basis.
It's up to us to make sure everyone born in 2016 gets exposed to this band (obviously when they're older!)
cant compare their vocals to plant lmao
It runs chills down my spine to think that they were 25ish here and they could pull out such songs. Truly an inspiration, not a single album underperforming, yet able to reinvent themselves over and over through time. Unsung, low-profile heroes of 2000 music.
I honestly don't think someone could've said it better
Fabio Matteo Dozio i
Unsung even now
@@noahguitarboy somebody pin this comment in the video description.
Stores your treasures up in moth and rust where thieves break in and steal

Gotta hear highly suspect especially their early stuff
I wish this version could be on streaming services.. It's kind of a stripped down version and I love it!

this whole album change my life
This song ended up becoming my number 1 favorite song. Awesome song, awesome message.

Still listening to Thrice in 2016. This band made truly impacting music. I wish I could see them live again :'(
+Lilian Barrera You can! They're back from hiatus and touring this summer! Go see them!
I did some digging last week and yeah! I bought a ticket for their Toronto visit! :D
So sad that they will go largely unnoticed. Such an amazing band.
Fast forward to 2024 and I still am luckily

best thrice ever song????
Lyrics guys:
The towers that shoulder your pride
The words you've written in stone
Sand will cover them, sand will cover you
The streets that suffer your name
Your very flesh and your bones
Sand will cover them, sand will cover you
So put your faith in more than steel
Don't store your treasures up, with moth and rust
Where thieves break in and steal
Pull the fangs from out your heel
We live in but a shadow of the real
Step out from time, see the dust of nations
Step out from time, hear the stars ovation
Saturn will not sleep, until the sand has made us clean
Still we stack our stones and bury what we can
But it all will be undone, and nothing built under the sun
Will ever stand before the endless march of sand

Same here. Haunting.
This is a fantastic version of this song! Dustin's tone sounds better than ever.
Favorite band of all time!
Still listening thrice in 2022, from Chile.
Thrice is the best but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🤘🐺 🔥
Greece hasn't many Thrice fans...
...but I AM... and with proud...
This band is so underrated.
10 years have passed from the first time i have listen to this song. 10 years and still it has the same impact on me.
Ersunn kardesim
FUCK they are so good live. I remember the first time i saw them in concert and they played this. mind blowing
ua-cam.com/video/UyTLzUBDzYY/v-deo.html

So heartfelt, yet so amazingly hard-hitting and relevant, especially 2023.
Who is here in 2022? This song absolutely rocks.

35 and jamming thrice since the very beginning. just had to come back and drop a "greatest song of all time"
First 4 Thrice albums. A+
JayyBird all of them
Sick song 👏👌👍🇨🇦
Red sky is my fav..such a misreably beautiful track n voice 👏 💘
Incredible song
it's not only the music, but also the lyrics that I love about this band.... makes you wonder what he was thinking the moment he wrote them. There's nothing more to be said.... amazing song!
This has to be the best song about earthly riches.
i would be willing to give my arms and legs to see these guys live one more time i miss good music like these guys
the last 30 seconds of this song should played during the climax of the most epic movie ever made... well whenever someone makes that movie.
I have heard tens of thousands of songs over the years but never even for a few days has any song overtaken this as being my favorite of all time.
makes me shiver.
This song is so cool, i don't understant why it's not popular!
Dang, these "sad" songs are breathtaking.
I started listening to thrice 15 years ago and now I'm sitting here listening to it with my 2 yr old son and he's speechless. Same reaction I had when I first heard them.
Parenting win right there buddy! Well done!
I named my son Vheissu, I can't wait to show him Thrice :D
I named my kid Deadbolt. Nah, but that woulda been chill AF. Good music and its meaning...
welcom tooo medellin-colombia rock and roll
87 of these song plays are mine!!! absolute LIVE perfection.. mind blowing!!!
How the hell could four people have accidentally clicked dislike? Apparently UA-cam needs to spread apart the thumbs up and the thumbs down. Thrice = Greatest band of all time
If you've never heard Architects cover of this song, go listen to it right now!
Great cover.
ua-cam.com/video/UyTLzUBDzYY/v-deo.html
U gotta hear this !!!
I haven't been able to stop listening to this song since I bought vheissu like 5 years ago. So good. =]
my god the strings in this song make it so beautiful i can cry
Probably one of the best songs I've ever listened to in my life. This is by a seasoned really serious music addict. ❤🔥
I’ll never not get goosebumps listening to this.
We have loved this band for years ...listen to the lyrics. That's important 😶💁💞🌞😇
I prefer to be focus on the singer's mustache XD
After 18 years, i finally started reading into the lyrics. Such wisdom & lessons. What a treat!
Yes sir thanks

I saw Thrice supporting Brand New in Wembley earlier this year. They are amazing live it was unreal. Such a great band.
i wish they did more stuff with strings. this could be in any movie and sound amazing
I picked up an EP off the dusty ground at the Warped Tour about eight years ago and from that first song until now I have grown up with THRICE as the soundtrack to my life! So inspirational and motivational these artists are!!
Here I am. It's 2021 and this is still a banger.
Flawless performance. I think the only way this could get any better is if I had actually been there when this happened. Truely amazing work.
the drums are so good
i would give alot to be able to meet them..

ua-cam.com/video/UyTLzUBDzYY/v-deo.html
U gotta hear this !!!
It's like a religion. It runs in my blood. For real.
This version is incredible, I really love it, but it's a bit unfortunate that Teppei made that little pedal mistake at 1:20. It kinda pulls me out of the immersion every time I listen to it lol.
Thrice is the best but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🤘🐺
@drewplaysdrums hahahaha, yeah definitely. Love the guys drumming he's amazing.
@CherikaBadra not hearing aids, they are in ear monitors..... as opposed to having them on the floor
I want this play to be dedicated to everyone.
a little bitty town in texas, where everyone listens to country, i mean LITTLE....like no stop lights and tractors have the right away 0_o
i love they're new cd!! it's so awesome, and the vid for digital sea is sketchy but i love it! great band all the way

4 people dont know how to appreciate this band
@oTagged
and also helps for recording as it is easier to get the level of volume needed without getting feedback.
