Took a few listens, but now I love it.

It didn't stick with me originally but the more I listen to it, the deeper and better I realize it is.

At first, when i heard this album, i was inclined to agree with everyone that it wasn't par brand new or whatever. BUT you have to take into account that the first three albums were made up of songs written mostly by jesse (with only a couple exceptions). this new album is almost entirely vinnie's work. once i took that into account, i was able to appreciate the album a lot more. maybe vin's not the BEST writer around, but this is still a strong album, and i love the art and the experimentation in it.… Expand

Brand New changes up it's style yet again, and it does not fail to dissapoint. Even less mainstream, and it is arguably their best album yet. Songs like Daisy, In a Jar, Sink, Noro, and Vices all emit a post hardcore symphony. Definitely worth checking out if you liked Devil and God or Deja Entendu, or even if your just a fan of the genre. Do not pass up on this album.

They surprise every time. Not as brilliant as "The Devil and God", but almost. Still I'm enjoying the continued evolution and can't wait to listen to this CD over and over and...

Hold your judgment until you give it a couple listens. It was kind of an unwelcome shock the first time around, but now I've really gotten into it. Doesn't quite manage to surpass the masterpiece that was TDAGARIM, thought

This is exactly what brand new needed to do.

This is their best album. It's dense, noisy, but beautiful at the same time. good to know that their releasing music for themselves.

Amazing, not quite as good as devil and god.

Its not a bad album. Its a good album but it doesn't have that special something that made brand new's past albums simply amazing... feels kind of lifeless to me.

I don't understand what everyone is saying here. This album is crap, I keep listening to it trying to see if it'll grow on me and it doesn't. I think it's just so artsy and esoteric that everyone is like "I don't get it, it has to be good." There's no flow to the album, no structure, and the songs all sound mashed together like they were written in 10 minutes. Their voices don't sound natural and I agree with the reviewer that said they sound just like Modest Mouse. All I could think of when I heard it was "whoops." Fail.… Expand

An extremely good album that needs time to grow. You may not enjoy it the first time through, but the 3rd and 4th listens kick you in the gut with great melodies, intricate and assaulting beats, and heartfelt vocals.

Worst disappointment musically speaking I have experienced in my whole life.

It's abstract, and a grower. If you like TDAGARIM then this is an album for you. Just listen and let it take you away.

The best album to date. The hardcore screaming... everything about it is just awesome!

Daisy isn’t isn’t half as good as people pretend or invent. Anyone that knows something about music besides this decade knows that Brand New is more like Brand Old right now. This is Brand New’s impersonation of Nirvana’s In Utero with some Modest Mouse throw in the mix, but different than their previous records – where The Smiths/Morrissey influences work beautifully – it’s their biggest flaw to me: I can’t help but think about Nirvana and Modest Mouse while listening. And how they’ve done before and way better. People saying that this is better than Thrice’s Beggars or any of Brand New’s previous are down right retards. In short: Shitty record is shitty. Epic fail, Brand New, way to go. Now Jesse, start working on a solo record asap and blow us away, will ya?… Expand

Sort of a bastard child between albums two and three, and suffers from the inevitable disjunction in styles. Ultimately, though, and album which has large potential to grow into your subconsious. You may not love every song, but you will probably find yourself humming your favorites without meaning to.
