Hear Thrice track Black Honey from comeback album To Be Everywhere Is To Be Nowhere

Thrice have released a stream of their track Black Honey.

It features on the band’s comeback album To Be Everywhere Is To Be Nowhere, which is out on May 27 via Vagrant. It’s the California outfit’s first material since 2011’s Major/Minor.

Frontman Dustin Kensrue tells NPR: “Lyrically, the song spawned from an image that popped into my head – someone continually swatting at a swarm of bees to get their honey, but somehow not understanding why they would sting back in return.”

Thrice will hit the road in June for a run of North American dates. They’ll then head to Europe in August for shows, including sets at the Reading and Leeds festivals.

To Be Everywhere Is To Be Nowhere is available for pre-order.
