"Horizons/West" showcases Thrice's signature blend of post-hardcore and experimental rock, characterized by intricate guitar work and dynamic shifts in energy. The production is polished yet retains an organic feel, allowing for rich sonic textures that range from atmospheric soundscapes in tracks like "Dusk" and "The Dark Glow" to more aggressive moments in "Blackout" and "Gnash." The instrumentation features layered guitars, driving rhythms, and ambient synths, creating a tapestry of sound that feels both expansive and intimate. The tempo varies across the album, with tracks like "Holding On" offering a steady pulse while others, such as "Albatross," explore more fluid, contemplative passages. This juxtaposition of light and dark, coupled with evocative lyrical themes, makes the album distinctive and immersive.
