| | Music Review: Brand New - "Deja Entendu" |
 | | by Amy P., Hockessin, DE Last summer, Brand New, a small-time band hailing from Merrick, New York, released "Deja Entendu" as the highly anticipated follow-up to their debut, "Your Favorite Weapon." "Deja Entendu" (which means "already heard" in French) is something of an ironic title. |
 | | The style is completely different from the catchy pop-punk sounds of "Your Favorite Weapon." "Deja" includes deeper, more meaningful lyrics sung to more melodic, acoustic guitars. |
 | | Earlier fans might be quick to criticize, saying Brand New has gotten mellower, but I think their sound has matured, and that they have grown as a band. |
