Thrice Announces New Album ‘Horizons/West’

Great news! Thrice is back with “Horizons/West”, their new album they plan to release on on October 3, 2025 via Epitaph Records. The announcement comes hot on the heels of the release of “Gnash”. Pre-sale for the “Horizons/West” vinyl is available now at ThriceMerch.com.

As you’d expect (based on the name), the new album serves as a companion to 2021’s “Horizons/East”.

Frontman Dustin Kensrue says of “Horizons/West”, “This is the first time we leaned into something that felt like a direct continuation, like a sequel to a previous album.”

“Horizons/West” was self-produced and engineered at New Grass Studios. It’s kind of what Thrice does. DIY. The album looks into themes of personal identity, societal manipulation, technological anxiety, and spiritual awakening.

“A lot of this record is about parsing reality,” Kensrue explains. “We’re constantly being influenced by algorithms, by fear, by our own social echo chambers. ‘Horizons/West’ tries to pull the curtain back on some of that. We’ve always just followed our curiosity, wherever it leads. We want to keep growing, exploring, and making something that feels honest to who we are right now.”
