Thrice remains as one of the biggest—and still active—success stories to come out of Orange County music history. The band formed in 1998 in Irvine, where guitarist/vocalist Dustin Kensrue and lead guitarist Teppei Teranishi first met while attending high school.
Eleven years later, the four-piece alt-rock (though some prefer “post-hardcore” or “post-punk”) band has put out seven full-length studio albums (which includes a quadruple album made up of two sets of two discs each), six EPs and one live album—all of which were gobbled up immediately by fervent fans.
Thrice’s sound is made up of a driving, aggressive rock sound, with heavy emphasis on guitar noise and riotous drumming.
Though the band is currently in the midst of a tour, Thrice has just announced that Teranishi will be heading back home to Orange due to an emergency—see our OC Music News section for more info.
Thrice: Tues.-Wed., Nov. 24-25, 7 p.m., $21-$24. House of Blues, 1530 S. Disneyland Dr., Anaheim, 714.778.2583. All ages.
