I'm like 99% certain those are Sheryl Crow song titles.

Half of this is a generic mess, half of this is Thrice's usual brilliance. I'll never understand how Hold Up a Light got past everyone and onto this album. It might just be the worst song they've put out since Identity Crisis.

Definitely a much more organic-sounding album than 2015's rTBEITBN, which felt like a Thrice-ified Dustin solo record, but it's still their weakest album yet. They never reach the heights they did on Vheissu and Alchemy (and probably never will again), but it's still a decent, versatile and cohesive listen with a few surprises thrown in, and Dustin reminds why he's one of the best post-hardcore vocalists of all time. Too bad the songs rjust aren't up to par with their past work.

Very disappointing considering how good the singles were. The harp in Blood on Blood was maybe the worst decision on the entire record, almost ruining an otherwise excellent song

A well made but somewhat disappointing release from Thrice, half of which contains mainstream radio rock and the other half their more innovative side. The best tracks include "The Grey," an effective, high energy track, "Everything Belongs" and "My Soul" being rewarding, atmospheric ballads, and "Blood on Blood" contains some beautiful acoustic guitar and harp sections. This is definitely worth a listen, but unfortunately is pretty inconsistent overall.

Completely forgettable. What happened to Thrice in two years' time?

tbh I don't think I would have had as much of a problem with 'Hold Up a Light' if it hadn't been haphazardly dropped right between two of the best songs on the album

Yes a lot of this record is mediocre (Only Us, and of course Hold Up a Light). But I found the production more interesting in comparison to TBEITBN, and more standout tracks that I keep coming back to (Beyond the pines, Just breathe). Dustin's simplistic lyrical approach is very hit or miss with this. Perhaps 4 is too high of a rating, but It's mainly fueled by those two songs. A Branch in the River, My Soul, Everybody's Golf and Blood on Blood are great as well, despite some very bland lyrical choices. Personally there is something special about this album for me (maybe because it came out days after a baad breakup).

Bumped my 2.5 to a 3. There are some redeeming qualities in the song structuring choices and memorable melodies. Palms still lacks the same memorability they accomplished on TBEITBN, but it remains a fun listen. The closer is one of their best tracks in recent memory.

Thrice continue to be surprising on a musical level. Unintentionally, it sounds like Eric Palmquist work with MuteMath has bled into a handful of these tracks. The Beggars meets Water/Air comparisons work here too, as does drawing comparisons to piano becomes teeth and even the national. Dustin lyrically pushes into more open grounds, leaning less on religion and more with how we connect with other people. Thrice embrace the alt-rock band more than ever on Palms, but it stays diverse and it still holds onto their quintessential thrice quirk elements such as the 5/4 time signature switch to 6/4 on beyond the pines because yay mathcore jk. Really though: Palms is another solid from the SoCal band, but it?s the softer moments on the record that shine a bit more.
