Defiance and punk used to go hand in hand, like peanut butter and jelly, or S&M leather wear and pogoing. These days, it seems all the kids have tossed rebellion to the side for the kind of immediate gratification that comes with the latest punk fashion faux pas, malicious moshing, and empty threats to former heads of state. Thank goodness for Brand New. Some folks may scoff at the thought of the Long Island quartet's raging against the new punk paragon, but whereas some of their former comrades in arms have gone the way of the screamo cliché, Brand New have cut a different path. With Daisy, they have again defied expectations, this time rebelling against those who're holding out for another grunge-flavored curveball like their 2006 outing, The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me....full text |

| The hardy Long Island lugs in Brand New might be the only guys in emo who still care more about Rites of Spring than they do about Weezer. On the follow-up to 2006’s instructively titled The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me, frontman Jesse Lacey howls about burning in bed and turning to dirt while his bandmates churn out noisy, jagged art-punk riffs that routinely explode without warning. (You would think the trick would stop surprising you halfway through Daisy, but it doesn’t.) The sound is old-fashioned, but the fury is fresh....full text |

As someone who grew up with Brand New from their beginnings, Daisy comes as something of an unknown quantity. They’ve always managed to keep fans on their toes with a healthy, if not massive, diversion with each album. The adoration attached to the band warrants a nearly unparalleled level of excitement and, inevitably, discussion. The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me seemed to truly cement them - and more specifically Jesse Lacey - as a voice of a romantically disenchanted generation, and so Daisy arrives with yet another burst of hyperbole from the pining hardcore. Don’t be misled by the choral beginnings of opener ‘Vices’, as you’re about to be hit squarely in the chops. ‘Vices’ has just, how they say, ‘punked’ you, because what follows should genuinely make you jump. Brand New have gone loud. VERY loud, and so the hope that this will be Brand New’s quintessential statement of intent rises. Unfortunately, that hope peters out pretty swiftly. ‘Bed’ harks back to the lurching grunge of Nirvana – a sound that, while not dated, has certainly been mastered elsewhere. ‘At The Bottom’ has ‘single’ written all through it and unfortunately stands out like a sore thumb in an album of almost complete diversion from the norm, leaving you feeling cold and somewhat jaded by what Brand New seemed to have morphed into....full text |
