It is really hard to appreciate this album without following the history of Brand New. Brand continue to re-invent themselves at an astonishing pace. The musical differences between this album and the last are just as bold and unexpected as ever. Many won't receive Daisy with loving arms, but I am absolutely amazed and horrified.
Very strong influences from The Jesus Lizard, Nirvana, old Modest Mouse, and Everytime I die.

Earlier this year someone supposedly posted "Brand New Demos" on youtube.
According to Absolute Punk they are actually songs by a fellow long island group called
The Republic Of Wolves... The Song Cardinals is absolutely amazing.

Say Anything - Hate Everyone
I really like Max Bemis for some reason. He is really hit or miss with the majority of people.

Liz Phair - Fuck and Run
Built To Spill - Car
Bruce Springsteen - Thunder Road
Modest Mouse - Trailer Trash
Neutral Milk Hotel - Two Headed Boy
Archers of Loaf - Web in Front

My Chemical Romance : New Songs
Frontman of My Chemical Romance, Gerard Way, claims that next
album will be a "Love letter to rock and roll" that reflects
their American roots.
I am actually a MCR fan but for some reason I don't consider them
a "classic rock and roll" type of band.
We'll see how this goes over.
Below are three new songs they played at The Roxy on 7/31

Mountain Goats - The Life Of The World To Come
The
In an interview Darnielle says :
"I guess the obvious question is going to be: 'John, have you had some sort of religious awakening?' and while I guess lots of people might want to be coy about answering that, that's never really been my style, so: no. It's not like that. It's not some heavy-narrative-distance deal either, though, and it's not a screed. It's twelve new songs: twelve hard lessonsthe Bible taught me, kind of. More than that I'd want to wait to say until some people have heard it, which won't be long. Will there be more news soon, quite soon? Like, next week, even? Oh yes there will!"
The Life of the World to Come:
01 1 Samuel 15:23
02 Psalms 40:2
03 Genesis 3:23
04 Philippians 3:20-21
05 Hebrews 11:40
06 Genesis 30:3
07 Romans 10:9
08 1 John 4:16
