Long-Island rockers, Brand New unexpectedly dropped a new album last Friday (August 17th) and we think it's rad.
Brand New have never followed in the steps of other bands. They always have something ready to surprise us with.
From the hype of the announced UK tour dates, no one was ready for this. Pre-orders of the upcoming fifth album, that had been long awaited, had been bought by eager fans. The band surprised a select few with a physical copy (CD) of the album. Excited, some fans took to social media to share what had happened. Not long after, Science Fiction dropped.
The Brand New album 'Science Fiction' is alluring from start to finish. The mellow start eases us in to what's going to be one of the top albums of 2017.
This album has been unlike any other Brand New album we've heard. Known for their soft sounding songs and heavy, heart-pumping tracks, Brand New have managed to top themselves.
Many people have said, and from what vocalist, Jesse Lacey has said, it seems that Brand New will not be here for much longer. There are conspiracies that the band will end their two-decade career in the upcoming year (2018). We hate to see them go but this album is one hell of a way to go out on. A successful end to their triumphant adventure. The emotional ending song represents what could be their final piece of work.
Our favourite track has to be 'No Control'. We think you should check it out and tell us what YOUR favourite song is from the album.
Brand New tour the UK and Ireland this November with three dates:
NOV 16 - OLYMPIA THEATRE, DUBLIN
NOV 18 - BRIXTON O2 ACADEMY, LONDON
