We talk too much
We talk in circles
Till we're all spinning around
Reaching for rings on this merry-go-round

The scenery spins
We call it progress
But I've seen this all before
When all is said and done, we'll wake up on floor

We set sail
With no fixed star in sight
We drive by
Braille and candlelight

We're building towers
With no foundations
Just stacking stone on stone
Whatever it takes, mix our mortar with bones

True progress means
Matching the world to
The vision in our heads
But we always change the vision instead

We set sail
With no fixed star in sight
We drive by
Braille and candlelight

ha!!
Always like 6/4 rhythms. Actually, not a bad tune. Not that Coldplayesque at all. Gave a 7.
Just what the world of music needs. Another Cold Play Radiohead hybrid. However, the lyrics are sincere.

I was thinking "Thrice? Is that you?"

I don't think I've heard anything from them since the Alchemy Indices. This one sounds like "Earth"
Hey! It's a song I haven't heard by Radio -- ..

oh. 
Thrice... you ought to love them! Nice to see the developement in their musical oeuvre, hopefully they'll be back together soon again. 
Bill, you can't play 45s at 33rpm. 

 
Instant PSD. {#Fever}
Sounds alot like some older tracks by Danish outfit Kashmir; which is not the worst to sound like ;-)https://www.kashmir.nu/

Formulaic.

Actually, it is Coldplay, only Chris Martin is billed as Mr. Gwyneth Paltrow.

Played thrice in the past month.
In their early career, Thrice was a thrash/post-punk outfit.  They've changed their sound considerably (obviously).  But what hasn't changed is the first-rate songwriting by Dustin Kensrue.  I especially recommend Vheissu.

I'm stunned - STUNNED - to hear Thrice on RP - and thrilled.

Remember, imitation is the highest form of flattery.  These guys must love Radiohead.
Thrice rules – they know how to rock around.
And finally threy're an exellent live band too. 
This one's gotten my attention, nicely, I must add.

Thrice is such an underrated band.
Great stuff, great new album.

That's who I thought this was when I put my headphones on, until I saw the playlist.

An interesting track. Initially thought it was Radiohead, although the vocals sound more like Chris Martin than Thom Yorke (listening at low volume here, so hard to tell).
