1* BrokenBase: Thrice fans generally fall into two camps: either they like pretty much everything, or else they think the band should have stopped after ''The Artist in the Ambulance'' or ''Vheissu''. In other words, some fans enjoy the constant GenreBusting and think it strengthens Thrice's catalog, whereas others like them only as a hardcore band. (Of course, there are exceptions who don't fit either group.)
2** Another minor example is the rift between certain Christian and non-Christian fans, especially when it comes to lyrical interpretation. If you want to see this division in action, just go to [[http://www.songmeanings.net [=SongMeanings.net=]]] and look at the comments for any Thrice song.
3* GeniusBonus: The closing song on each disc of ''The Alchemy Index'' is actually a sonnet. Also see the literary allusions on the main page.
4** The morse code at the beginning of "Image of the Invisible" spells out the album name, ''Vheissu''. Definitely one of the stranger [[AlbumTitleDrop Album Title Drops]] out there.
5** The main guitar riff in "Northern Lights" was derived from the Fibonacci sequence. Lead guitarist Teppei Teranishi [[https://www.guitarworld.com/features/thrice-horizons-east laid out the numbers as intervals in MIDI.]]
6* GrowingTheBeard: Opinions differ as to which of Thrice's albums was the band's first truly solid effort, but all but the most diehard old-school fans agree that they improved exponentially after ''Identity Crisis''.
7* SignatureSong: It's become a sort of RunningGag amongst fans and the band itself that ''someone'' will shout out a request for "Deadbolt" at every show. Since "Deadbolt" is from Thrice's second album of eleven, this behavior is generally viewed as rather annoying. "The Artist in the Ambulance", "Image of the Invisible", "All That's Left", "Red Sky" and "Black Honey" are also signature songs of theirs.
