It’s a Black Friday miracle! Thrice dropped a huge bomb on its fans today with the announcement of a gorgeous limited edition 10th anniversary reissue of its entire epic four-part record, The Alchemy Index. Originally released two EPs at a time from 2007-2008, the reissue ties all the music together on stunningly-colored vinyl, all encased in an expensive-looking gold foil-bound cover.
The Alchemy Index reissue will be was available exclusively online at the Thrice Store on Black Friday. They’ve only pressed 2,000 copies, so if you snoozed, you lost. There are plenty available on eBay thanks to unscrupulous resellers, but fuck them and all they stand for.
However, if you do didn’t, don’t put your credit card away. Come all you weary, back to RiotFest.org, and pick up tickets to the Thrice/Circa Survive show at Chicago’s Aragon Ballroom on December 7, 2017 while you still can. If those are out too, there’s always our not-as-gorgeous-as-the-new-Thrice-reissue Black Friday merch. OK, we’ll stop now.
Check out the band’s announcement below, and have a lovely turkey binge.
