Wow, I've never heard a band try so hard to suck and succeed brilliantly at doing so. This is going to be a landmark release; providing an entire album full of plodding, mediocre banality to which an entire generation of annoying middle-class suburbanites will cut themselves and hopefully not botch the job this time.

I've never seen a band try so hard to avoid convention without the necessary ingredients to making an album unconventional. If you're Omar Rodriguez Lopez, you can make a 6 minute song with no discernible hook and it will still sound amazing. If you are Jesse Lacey, you better stick to powerchords, sing-along choruses and lyrics about how he could purches you and eleven of your closest friends for 10 cents.

Too bad Straylight Run beat them to the punch, but their boring-ass self-fellating dungheap was an EP, so I guess Brand New will win.

I like it a whole lot, actually. This album seems as if they've gone out of their way to not use any hooks at all without the musical know-how to make it sound worth their while.

To be fair, the old Brand New demos are the worst songs I've ever heard.

I never liked Brand New. The only thing worse than one singer doing a bad impression of Chris Conley is two singers doing bad impressions of Chris Conley at the same time but singing different lyrics.

Haha, yeah. We were saying that the only good to come out of the new Brand New record is that everyone's going to get pumped that much harder in the ass when they hear the new Saves the Day album.

Wow. I've never even heard anyone suggest that the two bands sound similar.

Deja Entendu is one of my favorite albums, but these demos are pretty meh.

Track 4 is the only one that it remotely noteable.

According to the info, these didn't make the album, so theres still hope that it could be good.

Except for being in pretty much the same genre of music, I don' think the two are all that similar.

I don't think the music is similar so much as the singers sound like they're attempting a certain "style" & failing.

Oh, they're not similar at all. It's just that fans of one tend to like the other, even though most bands aren't fit to lick the sweat from Chris Conley's balls.
