So Brand New's album has leaked. It's called Daisy.
Two words: so beautiful.
I love music like this. Music that evokes emotion. Some of my favorite songs are the ones where you can just hear what the singer is feeling. No need to read the words, you just can hear it in his voice.
Take The Lawrence Arms song "I'll take what's in the box, Monty" off of their Apathy and Exhaustion album. The whole song is great, but around the two minute mark it cools off into a slower, softer part.
Three minutes in, it switches to minor. The drums move towards this powerful triplet rhythm in the bass and you can hear Chris playing a very melancholy, rock ballad over the top. It's pretty.
Then Brendan's tone changes.
"In the morning, creep out the door.
I don't know what you stayed this long for."
He's almost crying. He's almost fucking crying.
