The Long Island, N.Y. band set out to make Daisy,...

Brand New — The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me

It's been three years since Brand New topped punk critics' year-end lists with the genre-defying Deja Entendu, and the New Yorkers have kept its follow-up well under wraps. It looks like "low key" is the order of the day as The Devil is even more sullen and moody than its predecessor, and Jesse Lacey seems to be further indulging his...

Brand New's Gloom Is Better Than Emo

If there's one word you could use to sum up Brand New's ever-changing sound, it's "brooding." The Long Island, N.Y.-based band have increasingly moved their music and lyrics into darker territory with each release, and as they demonstrated at the first of two sold out gigs at the Kool Haus in Toronto this weekend, they're not afraid to explore...

Brand New Songs Fueled By Discount Acoustic Guitar

Long Island, N.Y. emo-rockers Brand New have come a long way since their debut, Your New Favourite Weapon.

Brand New Album Update
