Deja Entendu

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
While anything but novel, the follow-up to Brand New's emo-punk-blast debut Your Favorite Weapon features unexpected touches and wisps of maturity. YFW was all about the rage and misery of young, explosive love, presented with Weezer-like hooks. Deja Entendu isn’t really over it yet; lead singer Jesse Lacey still sounds damaged and full of self-loathing on mopey, post-Smiths pop like "The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot." But amidst the Jimmy Eat World choruses are experiments with sudden dynamic shifts and style (like Lacey channeling Adam Duritz for "Play Crack The Sky"), along with ruminations about the misery of cancer ("Guernica"). If Deja Entendu sounds like the work of musicians discovering their talents, it's also about learning that desperate heartache isn't just about girls who don’t call back. --Matthew Cooke

5 out of 5 stars Lyrical Geniuses.......2007-07-13

These guys put together great music with equally great lyrics like no one out there... buy it! Don't bother comparing to anyone else... just buy it.

5 out of 5 stars We Really Havent Heard This All Before.......2007-04-03

This is by far, hands down, my favorite album ever. It was weird when I was jamming to 70x7 in my car on the way to get the album and listening intently and serene on the way back. This is one of the "Biggest" albums I own. A huge change and it was welcome...Brand New is one of my favorite groups of all time.

5 out of 5 stars Better and more mature than all the other stupid emo music out there........2007-03-17

Let me just say that I hate emo because I hate any music that appeals to teenagers and I am sick of those whiny lyrics about how your girlfriend broke up with you, believe me it won't be the worst thing that will happen to you in your life. I have a mental disorder called autisum so I remember being made fun of in high school and I still don't have a social life but it never brings me down because I belive in possibilities and I belive that anything can happen.

With that said, let me talk about this album. Like I said, I don't like emo or punk music because of it's teenage angst lyrics and it's over the top and annoying yelling and screaming. I listen to Sarah Mclachlan, Hooverphonic, Fiona Apple, The Pretenders, and Cibo Matto, I also like classical music and film music. I have nothing against lyrics about sadness because I have a mental disorder so I understand unhappiness but I just don't like it when it's all about some high school crush who never called you back. I never really experienced that in high school because I had a more mature adult life in high school and still do. I herd Brand New's first album, Your Favorite Weapon and really did not like it because well you know why but when I herd this I was blown away, the songs are dark and atmospheric, great music to listen to on Halloween, it's almost like a more heavy version of Sarah Mchlachlan with its mature lyrics and melodies, oh the melodies are really beautiful, I don't have a favorite becaue all the songs are perfect. Wonderful lyrics about fear of all the scary things in this messed up world that is more serious than a heart break over a high school crush.

4 out of 5 stars Great Album.......2007-03-12

My Fiance and I never heard of "Brand New" until we went to a Dashboard Confessional concert and they opened for that band. Well, we loved them and immediately got their new album. We loved that album so much we wanted to hear their "old" stuff. We love this one too. We can't wait till they have another one. I would say more than half of the songs are songs we like and will keep listening too. Which is good, because most CD's only have one or two good songs. I find that Brand New has a lot of good songs.

4 out of 5 stars Really good if you're in that mood..........2007-02-14

This is by far the best of their CDs. "Jaws Theme Swimming" is awesome. Definately good alternative music.
