About Rising Phoenix Music

Welcome to Rising Phoenix Music, a blog that's not so one-sided and biased, but has a variety of music that could suit the different tastes of others. I post and review heavy, brutal, loud, soft, relaxing, chill, and experimental music, so look through my archives, we might just have what you're looking for. I made this blog for the sake of these artists--new and old--to share my opinion on their music, and to tell you why I like it and why you might like it too! The artists and albums I post here all deserve to be known, praised, and remembered. I simply want to promote a vast variety of good music and to help out the bands and artists that deserve your attention, not piracy and stealing to deprive these bands of their income. I also believe that you cannot fully judge a band or musician until you have heard most of their material completely, which is why the albums are up for download. I urge you to buy the albums, buy their merchandise, go see them live (if they're still together) and support them!

Well, to start off... I love this album. It isn't my favourite Thrice album, but I definitely think it's a damn good listen. The riffs and lyrics are extremely catchy and you'll most likely find yourself humming and/or singing them out loud or in your head as you go through the day. I've always been skeptical as to whether Thrice are a Christian band or not, based on some of their lyrics (also due to their clear knowledge of the Illuminati and the oppression of society, which makes them seem far too intelligent and open minded to be religious)--but then again... the lyrics can be taken in several ways. All in all, this is a very moving and raw collection of songs and I highly recommend it.
