Speedo Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 2 minutes ago, Kay said: I prefer the 2006 leaked demos to TDAG, especially the songs they kept over. the reprise version of Luca from the demos is so much better than the album version. Plus 1996, Nobody Moves, and Missing You are all absolutely brilliant. Yes, but their not all child molesters. MLK was a womanizer, Mother Theresa a greedy cunt who used the sick and dying ... people do fucked up shit, it doesn't mean they exclusively do fucked up shit. You can appreciate a part of something even if the rest of it is diabolical. Hell, even the Nazis managed to pull some decent shit off ... created the concepts of highways, gun laws, animal rights, anti-smoking campaigns and pulled Germany out of a devastating depression. It doesn't mean don't hate the nazis, just acknowledge that life is messy and not good v. bad or black/white. Appreciate what you can of it and dismiss the rest.

_Kyle_ Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 it's kind of hard when 60% of the songs have a "I'm a terrible person who fucks with underage girls" vibe in them. I love, love, love Brand New and their music, but it really has dampened my appreciation and enjoyment of them. it's hard to ignore lyrics with them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can't really listen to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he was referring to JL's behaviours in the song though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghent Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 California is like heavy metal compared to that garbage Scott posted. A total wum, NQAT. No way he doesn't blast California out in his undies and sing along with every word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meltdown Tracker Posted September 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Might be more post-hardcore than punk, but I adore this song and the last verse is amazing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Value Boy Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Come across this when browsing YouTube a few days ago, used to love this band and stuff like this, catchy pop punk, with nice chuggy/riffy guitars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
