What are people expecting for the new Brand New CD?

Personally, I am expecting a dark vibe like Deja, but with a lot more electronic tones on there, since they are all about MW/C and all. I'm thinking maybe like Straylight's "Hands In The Sky" (awesome song)...

I'm expecting a shit load of hype that won't be backed up. I've grown out of the two older cds. This probably won't end up doing much for me.

I hope the lyrics are a little more mature and that they keep harmonizing. Their bass oriented songs were the best on the last album so I hope they continue down that path.

I think Vhiessu is boring as hell. The hard parts are some of the worst they've written. Not what I wanted out of a Thrice album.

like sic transit and jaws theme?

Paul Tao

10/03/05, 08:21 PM

I expect that I will be disappointed in it. Not that it'll be horrible, but my musical tastes have changed a lot since Deja Entendu, and unless Brand New has changed its sound enough along with me, odds are that I won't enjoy it nearly as much as I did when Deja came out.

I mean, I was obsessed when Deja came out, and the odds of that happening with this album are not that great.

I could not agree more. Sic Transit was the best song of the year, and I wanted more of that.

Vheissu seems boring to me, but I still need to give it more time.

agreed, not enough hard songs on the new Thrice disk..

as far as Brand New goes, they will never live up to their work on Deja. Every other album they put out will be just a shadow of what Deja was to most people who enjoy Brand New.

I expect it to be along the lines of Coldplay meets Deja, like a more universal sound I guess, if that makes sense.

I still listen to Deja from time to time, I practically burned a hole through it I played it so much when it came out though.

Paul Tao

10/03/05, 08:27 PM

Deja, for a long while, was my absolutely favorite album.

I hope Deja wasn't just a fluke...I know that's close minded saying that, but there have made such a name for themselves. It's alot to live up to.
Tommy Gun will forever be one of my favorite songs though, no matter what this next album brings.

That's a real personal song to me, but mine is Jaws Theme, all the way. I'll be cliche and say "Play Crack the Sky." Though Jaws Theme & Guernica are my favorites also. For a long time I was obsessed with the first half of the CD, and I didn't give the rest much of a chance. Now, I realize my mistakes.

It doesn't matter how amazing the BN album will be, it will always be "overhyped" and "overblown." Jesse's lyrics won't be as intricate, Vince won't be as creative. The band will have not evolved and become something entirely different. I'll still love it I'm sure.

I agree about the listening to the first half too much. I did the exact same. At the moment, Guernica, Jaws Theme, and Good to Know are my favorites. But Quiet Things will always have a place in my heart. How about I just love the whole album lol

But I agree with what most of you are saying. It will be overhyped no matter how awesome it is. We've all been waiting on this album for a long time and with as awesome as Deja is, we're going to expect something even better. Hopefully it is something that will blow us all out of the water, but I'm doubting it... I think our expectations are too high.

Yeah, I'm just saying that everyone will have high expectations, and no matter how mind-blowingly amazing the album is, there are still those people who hate it. As we've seen with the Cartel album, and the Thrice album. I'm hoping BN will deliver, and I have faith they will, but all the same...

I find that if I don't pay attention to all the attention an album gets surrounding its release that I enjoy it a lot more. Which is exactly what I plan to do with Brand New. Ignore the disses/hype and buy it on release day.

People are going to bash it, it's inevitable, and claim everyone just listens to it just because. People have said that to me about Deja and well I preordered Deja Entendu (got a lameass poster of them posing for Abercrombe or something) before I even knew about this site. The reason why I even joined the site was because I was like, "shit, this site talks about Brand New and other bands I like. Let's check it out..."

Now I'm doubting myself... I'm at 90%. lol I know he has Dark Side of the Moon... and there's like 4 of them he has. This is going to drive me insane and everyone at my house is already asleep so I can't bug them about it.

My speculations are probably completely wrong but I think BN will continue to head towards the a more songwriter based sound. Jesse wants to be the new Morrissey. It probably will disappoint many people but albums that attract so much hype and anticipation always do.
