Brand New Band • Page 655

I've been listening to Daisy a lot, and I'm honestly starting to think it's my favorite Brand New album tbh. I want to give Science Fiction more time before I say that though, but I think I can comfortably say I enjoy listening to it more than TDAG (and I definitely return to it more frequently). It's hard to say whether that's due to wearing that album out by listening to it so much in my adolescence or just tastes changing. I still think TDAG is a great record, (and still their most influential to me) but I rarely listen to it anymore and when I have a hard time sitting through the whole thing.

 

You are correct on the order we are doing. And I am aware of those except the 3 demos reworked. Thank you for the list I'll use it when making the bonus matches(although Luca reprisal is in the TDAG bracket since it was oh the international release)

 

The Quiet Things That no one ever knowwwwssss

 

Quiet Things

Just gonna keep voting for losers I guess lol

 

There is a 4 point difference and people act like Quiet Things is getting destroyed.

 

Everytime I Look For You came back from an 8 point deficit to win TOYPAJ. Remember that people, Quiet Things isn't out yet

 

Quiet things

 

Don't give them hope, Tommy Gun should win! Haha

 

Quiet Things

Both good, but this is the way better song.

 

Current stats

Tommy Gun - 16
Quiet Things - 14

Anyone's game

 

That makes sense I guess. The reworked demos aren't radically different from the 2006 versions, fine-tuned and better sounding but I don't think it'd make sense to have those songs in the running twice. Don't think the covers are really essential either but other people might disagree. The ideal bonus bracket for me would be.

1. Good Man
2. 1996
3. Brother's Song
4. Missing You
5. Nobody Moves
6. Fork and Knife
7. Yeah (Sowing Season)
8. Battalions
9. aloC-acoC
10. Flying At Tree Level
11. Mene
12. Out Of Range
13. I Am A Nightmare
14. Moshi Moshi
15. Sealed To Me

Then if you wanted to even it out and have a sixteenth song there's an alternative version (Potentially a demo?) of Millstone with different lyrics that also appeared on the Jesus single.

Edit: Also people who haven't listened to the alternative version of Millstone give that shit a listen. Sometimes I like it more than the album version.

 

I knew this could be close, I'm writing down usernames as I count to ensure I don't miss anything.

 

I'll double check your count too :)

 

Sounds good!

I write the names in order so it's easy to see who I missed if someone says they were missed. I'll post the lists later since the round will be open for a bit since it just opened and is so close.

 

Tommy Gun

 

I checked all the way from the start of this round and this total is accurate!

 

That's a hot take!

 

degausser should win the whole thing.. that or Limousine or You Won't Know

 

Quiet Things

 

I wouldn't count out Jesus

 

quiet things!

 

Gonna update a little more often due to how close it is and the amount of votes...

Tommy Gun - 18
Quiet Things - 16

 

Oh really? That's a bummer, I like that song a lot too. It does sound like they tried to duplicate the sound of Jesus (Wasn't Bed the first single too?). It clearly isn't as good as Jesus, but I kind of hear the same vibe from it.

 

I'd put my money on You Won't Know...or Limousine. My two personal favorites of theirs.

 

Deguasser should win, I'll vote for it in any round
