Brand New was conceived in a basement in Merrick,NY where drummer, Brian Lane, and frontman, Jesse Lacey began their first informal rehearsals. It didn't take long for them to realize that they had some pretty solid songs between themand that people needed to hear them. The pair quickly recruited long time friend Garrett Tierney, as well as Vin Accardi, to play bass and guitar, respectively. The group was complete and soon set about recording their first demo, a four-song CD that the band recorded, produced and released by themselves. A rigorous writing, practice and touring schedule helped the band quickly climb the ranks of the underground Long Island scene where they were born. Soon they were playing shows with bands like Midtown, New Found Glory, Good Charlo More... (Submit New Brand New Lyrics) (Submit New Brand New Lyrics) Review about Brand New Real Meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Guernica performed by Brand New This song really is about his Grandfathers death. Well, really about when his Grandfather was dying and he was waiting for the phone call, he described it one time before playing it acoustic. However, I agree with most everyone else in the fact that you shouldn't concentrate so much on the meaning for Jesse Lacey as much as you should take out your own meaning and how it applies to your own life!! To me, at least | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot performed by Brand New This song probably reminds alot of people of exes, as well as me. There are some relationships you care so much for, and you want everything to work out for the best, but you know it wont. Well, thats what this song says to me at least. I have an ex that I would do almost anything for, just to make him smile. He's a fan of Brand New, as am I (obviously), and when we broke up, I played this song constantly because it reminded me so much of my own feelings towards him. love this song | Reviewer: andrea ------ About the song Sic Transit Gloria...Glory Fades performed by Brand New i love this song brand new rocks their songs are so deep. this song reminds me of a guy whos a virgin and we braley met and he wants to do it but i know its his first time and i want it to be speacil for him plus not to mention were 5 years a part One perception of many... | Reviewer: Cel ------ About the song Jesus Christ performed by Brand New "Do you believe you're missing out? That everything good is happening somewhere else But with nobody in your bed The night is hard to get through" I myself, like many others struggle with their faith and what Jesse Lacey had written here, gets to me, like this... "Do you believe your missing out?" -Many believers of Christ try to do the right thing, try not to lose self control and go out and party and sleep around and do what the rest of the world seems to be doing these days, so by this it's literally, do you believe your missing out? "That everything good is happening somewhere else" -Because one sacrifices so much to live in the good and please the Lord, one struggles when they're alone in their stance. One struggles when they're personally trying to do what's right by not comitting sin they ways many others are casually doing. . . And so one questions, are those people really having fun, am I missing out on that? Is everything really happening out there across these boundaries? "But with nobody in your bed The night is hard to get through" - and without anyone for that person to hold and stand strong with, one questions would it just be the cure to go out and find some one for the night, because it sure is hard to get through the night with those thoughts when lying alone. agh | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot performed by Brand New i love and hate this song. it makes me so frustrated because its so self pitying. but at the same time i cant be mad because he feels bad about what he's doing. this perfectly represents my last relationship and my ex even put it in his profile after we broke up. ok | Reviewer: yo ------ About the song Logan To Government Center performed by Brand New yes the cure lyrics are in this song, that should not be the main focus though. the whole song, every line, every chord is amazing. brand new comes from a place we all know, but knew better back in the day. it's being young and wild and in love. yes brand new is love, and some angst too lol. one of the best songs from my favorite band! amazing | Reviewer: peter john alabaster ------ About the song Soco Amaretto Lime performed by Brand New i do love this song. what someone said earlier about it being horrible to listen to is utterly ridiculous. i like the idea of the tattoo.. cause you'd look back on it when your older and think of your youth. oh and well the scratch at the end is a bit annoying - but i'm guessing it links to the realization that 'life bites'. it cuts out the 'youre just jealous cause were young and in love' cause it's such a naive thing to say, it's like life it cutting the little voices out lol ramble over good song :) My opinion . | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot performed by Brand New Personally, I feel the whole song is not intended to be sad, yet sarcastic. This reminds me so much of my ex best friend, who had intentions on hurting me, and after he did, he was really sarcastic, although I tried to remain friends. I think everyone is misinterpreting the song, its not supposed to make you sad, its more like showing people the attitude that people should have, a selfish sarcastic attitude. Not saying that selfish or sarcastic are good, but that sometimes you just need to protect yourself from getting hurt, we need to "block our own shot." After we get into relationships that make us realize the damage that might be done, we need to get out of that relationship in order to block your own shot; prevent what you started. So, the song is basically an apology for getting into that relationship, but his sarcasm is for the damage he knew she might have caused. He hurt her first to save himself... I think we should all try it, maybe the world won't be so bummy, maybe we all will know that everyone is going protect themselves, therefore no one will get hurt ... For those who cant see that it's the song of a struggling Christ follower | Reviewer: Morgan ------ About the song Jesus Christ performed by Brand New I said Christ follower because I hate the word Christian. It's become about shunning and selfishness so I'll stick with Christ follower. Well, Jesus Christ, I’m alone again So what did you do those three days you were dead? Because this problem's gonna last More than the weekend I cant see how that is anti-religion. Jesus dying on the cross wasn't meant to redefine the world and fix everything, it was a sign of God's forgiveness. Also, him asking what he did the three days he was dead was, I think, Jesse asking God what he did to get through the problems life throws at you. Cause I'm scared I'll get scared and I swear I'll try to nail you back up OK, seriously? How is that not a spiritual statement? He's so afraid of sinning because he knows that it breaks God's heart to see us fall, almost like we crucify him every time we sin, that's how much I/other Christ followers believe God loves us. It's not about the downside of religion, it's Jesse crying out, being deathly afraid of hurting God every time he fails, looking for guidance. And for good measure And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands? Thomas was a bible character that doubted that Jesus was risen from the dead and stated he wanted to put his fingers through Jesus' hands because that's the only way he'd believe. When Jesus visited them Jesus held out his hands to Thomas, and Thomas believed. That verse in the song is like God asking, "How much were you willing to sacrifice to further the Kingdom?" I'd love to talk more about this because this song, to me, is an amazing story of a Christ follower that struggles with seeing is believing. Personally, | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Play Crack The Sky performed by Brand New Jesse Lacey is an ineffably talented writer; every single one of his songs are beyond the shallow depth of the lyrics themselves. He's gifted with the ability to string words together and create something that has multiple meanings but to HIMSELF there will be the one true meaning of the song.. If that makes any sense. If Lacey wanted to write a song simply about his girlfriend cheating on him, or simply just to write a song, he'd sound like every other band. His lyrics is what makes Brand New, Brand New. All of his songs that he wrote, along with Vinnie Accardi, is everything that has been said and more... and I think that that's what is so passionate and compelling about their writing and music. Jesus Christ | Reviewer: Maleina ------ About the song Jesus Christ performed by Brand New I think it is hard to dispute that this song is Jesse's struggle with his faith. I love this song, and I'm glad to hear someone actually talk about this struggle because no one ever wants to say they are losing their faith or are questioning their beliefs. The line "But I'm scared, I'll get scared and I swear I'll try to nail you back up" is obviously a reference to the fact that more than likely no one would believe that Jesus has come back if he did and he is scared he might deny him as the savior. I mean think about it, if someone came to you and told you they were Jesus in this day and age would you honestly believe them? You'd probably deny Him too. As a non-believer I really relate to this song because I also struggled with many of these feelings before I just admitted to myself there was no way I could believe in a God. blue line inbound | Reviewer: kp ------ About the song Logan To Government Center performed by Brand New i've been a brand new fan for quite a long time, back when i was in grade school. i'm now a college student in boston and i didn't really get the title until my freshman year of college. Logan Airport to Government Center station on the blue line! but i always thought brand new was from LI. did jesse just happen to ride the T while he was writing this?? Numbers | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Limousine performed by Brand New "The number represents the essential number of a man. The number 6 falls one short of God's perfect number, 7, and thus points to human imperfection. Antichrist, the most powerful human the world will ever know, will still be a man - a 6. The ultimate in human and demonic power is a 6, not perfect, as God is." There are 7 virtues, sins, joys of the virgin, etc... 3 means eternity. Hence 666 means imperfect forever and 777 would mean perfect forever. If taken into consideration, the song might be indicating that she was the perfect 7 year old. Album title explanation | Reviewer: Trent ------ About the album Deja Entendu performed by Brand New An explanation of the album name, Deja Entendu. I found it very interesting, just wanted to share. Taken from Wikipedia. "The album marks a move away from the pop punk genre of Your Favorite Weapon, with a more alternative rock and polished sound. The album was produced by Steven Haigler, who was the sound engineer on the Pixies' Trompe le Monde. The title is French, literally translating to "already heard," which is said to be at critics who claimed that the band sounded like every other group in the genre. Jesse Lacey got the name for the album while watching an episode of Jeopardy!." the lyrics | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Soco Amaretto Lime performed by Brand New this song is very poetic and has more meaning than people see. but the band knows it more than anyone else, and that's all that matters to them. if you dont see the poetry and deep meaning in this song, then you don't know music. Sad... | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Soco Amaretto Lime performed by Brand New Someone was talkin bout how much they liked this song... Saddddnesss if these guys get big. People canlonger distinguish good music from bad music anymore!... The picture that pops into my head when I hear this song is that of a 14 year old crying himself to sleep... not very appealing. Thornz4Therapy | Reviewer: Thornz4Therapy ------ About the song Jesus Christ performed by Brand New As a song writer myself I like to write stories about something without saying what i really talking about, like in a form of a big metaphor. I think he is having some issues with himself. Comparing himself at times to Jesus christ. Feeling crucified. Self-crucifiction. And as far as the title of the album its not even about religion its more the duality of man. we all have evil and good inside us. Good side n bad. ying-yang wonderfull | Reviewer: caiti31 ------ About the song Play Crack The Sky performed by Brand New This is one of the best songs that there is to hear. the whole song is a giant metaphor to the failing of a relationship, whether that relationship be romantic or friendship. The line "I need you like water in my lungs," is brilliant,seeing as water in your lungs will kill you. Translation- this relationship is killing him, and he knows he doesn't need whoever this person is, but he still stays with her. Every album of Brand New is brilliant, but personally I like Deja Entendu and the Devil and God Are Raging Inside of Me the most. :) Bittersweet | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot performed by Brand New My ex was really into brand new, we broke up a while ago because he needed to get his head sorted, when he decided we should break up we said we would spend one more day together as a couple, to say goodbye and then go out separete ways. Because although it was for the best, it was too much to just say goodbye straight away. We had a lovely day, we went on a walk, he picked me flowers and made me dinner. As I was about to leave he said this song reminded him of me, our situation, everything he was feeling, especially the line "and it hurts a whole lot, but its missed when its gone" and he put the song on as he kissed me goodbye, it was the nicest and sadest moment of my life, now listening to this song makes me cry but it also reminds me of that time when it felt like it was just us to, and it reminds me that he did love me. Vera your a cunt hole. | Reviewer: Bre ------ About the song Jude Law And A Semester Abroad performed by Brand New I'm a feminist through and through...and maybe if you thought about the lyrics you would understand, that maybe JUST MAYBE. the chick went away without considering that mr lacey might just lover her. and maybe when she took that semester abroad she DID cheat. god your a cunt hole You could review the artist/band Brand New in Biography page You could review Brand New album by visiting Albums page and selecting an album You could review Brand New song by clicking the song which you like  Download "Brand New" Music | |
