Brand New was an American rock band from Long Island, New York. Formed in 2000, the band consisted of Jesse Lacey (vocals, guitar), Vincent Accardi (guitar, vocals), Garrett Tierney (bass guitar, vocals) and Brian Lane (drums, percussion). From 2006 to 2013, the band also included Derrick Sherman (guitar, backing vocals, keyboards).[1] The band is recognized as one of the most influential within the 2000s emo scene, celebrated for making artistic statements with their music compared to their peers.[2]

Lacey, Tierney and Lane all played in the band the Rookie Lot, from Levittown, New York. Lacey was also the founding bassist for Taking Back Sunday before leaving. With Accardi in 2000, they formed Brand New in Merrick, New York.[3] The band signed to Triple Crown Records and in 2001 released their debut album Your Favorite Weapon. Their second album, Deja Entendu, was released in 2003 and marked a stylistic change for the band, one that garnered an extremely positive critical reception.[4] The album's first two singles, "The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows" and "Sic Transit Gloria... Glory Fades", both received airplay on MTV2 and Fuse TV, entering the top 40 on the United Kingdom Singles Chart. Deja Entendu was eventually certified Gold in the United States.

Brand New moved to Interscope Records and released the critically acclaimed The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me in 2006. "Jesus Christ" became their highest-charting single in the US, peaking at number 30 on the Alternative Songs chart. The album was also certified Gold in the United States. In March 2008, the band started their own record label, Procrastinate! Music Traitors. Their fourth album, Daisy, which saw Accardi become a significant lyricist for the band, was released in 2009 and reached number six on the Billboard 200.

The band released two non-album singles following Daisy: "Mene" in April 2015 and "I Am a Nightmare" in May 2016, also formally releasing the original demos for their third album which had been leaked on the internet a decade earlier. Brand New surprise-released their fifth and final album Science Fiction on August 17, 2017, two days after announcing its release on vinyl. Receiving both critical acclaim and commercial success, it became Brand New's first number-one album on the Billboard 200.

During Brand New's final years, the band repeatedly announced plans to break up in 2018, but they have been inactive since November 2017 after Lacey was accused of sexual misconduct occurring during the band's early days.[5]

History

[edit]

Formation and Your Favorite Weapon (2000–2002)

[edit]

Prior to Brand New's official formation, in the late 1990s, Jesse Lacey, Garrett Tierney and Brian Lane were all members of the post-hardcore band the Rookie Lot, along with Brandon Reilly and Alex Dunne of Crime in Stereo. The Rookie Lot split and did not play for a while until Lacey, Lane and Tierney started to rehearse again. After Reilly joined The Movielife, they then recruited guitarist Vincent Accardi, who had been playing in a band called One Last Goodbye.[3][6]

All four members had backgrounds linking into their local Long Island independent and hardcore music scenes, but with influences from an array of artists ranging from Buddy Rich to the Archers of Loaf. They eventually formed Brand New in 2000, in a basement in Merrick, New York. Their initial intention was always to "move outside of whatever notions they felt inclined to when they were making music as younger people."[3] The band gained exposure in the local scene through playing shows with alternative rock contemporaries Midtown and post-hardcore bands like Glassjaw, while also self-releasing a four-song demo.[6][7] The band's first show was at the Garden City bowling alley as the opener for Long Island hardcore band Silent Majority.[8]

Brand New signed to Triple Crown Records just after their second-ever show.[9] The band had released a demo for Warner Bros. Records, but the label did not believe that the band had a hit single in their catalog that was worth signing them for. In response, Lacey immediately wrote "Last Chance to Lose Your Keys" at the label office to serve as their single, but Warner Bros. declined to make an offer and Brand New ended up with Triple Crown instead.[8]

Lane and Reilly came up with the band name Brand New, which Lacey said was "somewhat in jest because nothing about the band is really that new... we weren't trying to break ground with a new kind of sound or anything."[10] Later, Lacey said that interpretation was not his original intention, claiming that "a friend of ours said he would call his band Brand New but he never got a new band so we took it. I wish it were something as clever as a sarcastic take on the state of music."[11]

Brand New's debut studio album Your Favorite Weapon was produced by friend of the band Mike Sapone.[3][7] The album has been described as being "bitter about ex-girlfriends", with an excessive concentration on "post-breakup angst". It received relatively positive reviews, with AllMusic awarding it three out of five and PopMatters also being favorable.[12][13] It became a moderate success, selling over 50,000 copies.[14][15] The record deal gave Brand New the opportunity to tour, playing alongside the likes of Taking Back Sunday and touring the UK in support of Finch, to a "great response" from the crowds.[7][16]

The only single released from Your Favorite Weapon was "Jude Law and a Semester Abroad". The song has been described by AllMusic as a "semi-hit" after it received airplay on both MTV2 and Fuse.[7]

Deja Entendu, acclaim and label bidding war (2003–2004)

[edit]

Brand New's second studio album was written in the "year and-a-half or two years" that they were touring the material off of Your Favorite Weapon. According to drummer Brian Lane, "Jesse [Lacey] wrote a lot of the lyrics about different things than 'I just broke up with my girlfriend' for the new record,"[17] on an acoustic guitar in his bedroom.[18] Lane also said the band's music tastes continued to expand, and that unlike their debut, a lot of time and concentration went into making the album.[19] I'm surprised that so many bands just keep putting out the same record as they did previously. We try to flex as much of our diversity muscles… as we can," Lacey said about growing the band's sound.[20]

Deja Entendu was released through Razor & Tie/Triple Crown Records on June 17, 2003. It began to receive international releases four months later.[21] The album's title literally translates to "already heard" in French.[22] It debuted at number 63 on the Billboard 200.[23] After just seven weeks, the album's sales were at more than 51,000 copies, already closing in on the total figure of its predecessor, Your Favorite Weapon.[15] In May 2007, four years after its release, it was certified gold for surpassing 500,000 sales in the United States by the Recording Industry Association of America.[24]

The album's two singles, "The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows" and "Sic Transit Gloria... Glory Fades", helped give the band exposure in the mainstream in contrast to how Your Favorite Weapon went "virtually unnoticed". Their music videos found "constant" airplay on MTV, and the band made its live television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, performing "The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows".[7][19][25] Both singles entered the top 40 on the UK Singles Chart[26] and "The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows" peaked at number 37 on Billboard's Alternative Songs chart.[27] In the wake of Deja Entendu, Brand New was pegged as an act to watch in Rolling Stone's annual "Hot Issue."[19] The band topped punk critics' year-end lists with the "genre-defying" Deja Entendu,[28] and the album was described as a "landmark album of so-called 'emo-punk'."[29]

Three shows of the band's 24-date headlining US tour with Moneen, Senses Fail, and The Beautiful Mistake had sold out prior to even having released a single, with much of the buzz surrounding the band being produced by just word-of-mouth, touring and Internet message boards.[18] Deja Entendu's success also earned them tours alongside New Found Glory, Good Charlotte, Dashboard Confessional, and Blink-182.[7] The band performed at several dates of 2003's Warped Tour, sold out a headlining tour of the UK in 2004, and planned to headline New Jersey's The Bamboozle festival in 2005 before cancelling last minute.[16][30]

Changing labels

[edit]

As a result of both Deja Entendu's success and the band's notable underground following, Brand New found itself in the middle of a bidding war from record labels.[7][9][21] At the time, drummer Brian Lane disagreed with the usage of the phrase "bidding war", but conceded, "There's a few labels that are definitely interested. We've been talking to a lot of people for a while and we're narrowing it down."[21] Following the album's success, Triple Crown Records knew that they had no chance of re-signing Brand New following the conclusion of their two-album deal. Lyor Cohen, at the time the president of The Island Def Jam Music Group, asked Thursday vocalist Geoff Rickly to speak positively about Island Records to Lacey in order to convince Brand New to sign with them. However, Lacey did not believe Rickly, as he noted how the label had told Thursday to rewrite their album War All the Time in order to placate the executives and did not want that happening to Brand New as well.

Michael Goldstone, who at the time was leaving DreamWorks Records for Sire Records, told Interscope Records executive Luke Wood to sign Brand New; Wood recalled that "for about six months, every label was trying to sign the band, chasing them all over the world. It was brutal." Vagrant Records made a hard push, but Brand New wanted total creative control in order to distance themselves from the emo scene following the success of Deja Entendu. Lacey was interested in the music of Pinback, Archers of Loaf and Neutral Milk Hotel.[8]

The band eventually signed with DreamWorks Records, which was then taken over by Interscope Records.[7]

The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me and continued acclaim (2005–2007)

[edit]

Following their signing to Interscope, Brand New stopped touring to work on their third album and major label debut. In this time, little to no interviews or updates came from the band.[7] In 2004, Jesse Lacey told Chart magazine that he had written a "few songs" for the next album, commenting that "the other guys love it already", and acknowledged suffering from depression because of the pressure to deliver on the anticipation surrounding the band.[14]

"I was also worried that it would derail the process because the four of us had created a pretty safe place where the only critics were ourselves. As much as we tried to shield ourselves from letting the leak affect us, it definitely did. There was a feeling of being robbed, after keeping everything so close to ourselves and then having it heard before it was completed."

In late 2005, Brand New started recording their third album in Oxford, Mississippi with producer Dennis Herring, but later dropped him in favor of Mike Sapone with whom they had worked on their first album.[3] On January 24, 2006, nine tracks recorded for the album were leaked to the Internet. Lacey was upset, saying, "No one likes to show their creation in mid-process, and those songs weren't done. They were like blueprints. Just the plan, right? It put me in a state where I was under the impression that those songs had been wasted or something—that we had to go and write new things because those had been heard."[31]

On June 20, 2006, Brand New performed for the first time in two years at the Starland Ballroom in New Jersey, also announcing that their third album had been completed the day prior.[32] Alternative Press claimed the album would come out on October 10, 2006 before the band corrected the date to November 21, 2006 in North America, and the day before in Europe. On October 5, Brand New announced the title, The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me, and its track listing. Lead single "Sowing Season" debuted on the radio on October 19 and appeared on their MySpace page a day later. In a BBC Radio 1 interview with Zane Lowe, Lacey explained that the album's title came from a conversation he had with a friend about the musician Daniel Johnston, who suffered from bipolar disorder.[33] The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me has since become Brand New's most critically acclaimed album and is considered one of the best albums of the 2000s.[34][35]

In late December 2006, a music video was released for the instrumental track "Untitled", also known as "-", which consists of a man spray painting a wall with "evil and good are raging inside me" before correcting it to read the album title.[36] On January 16, 2007, "Jesus Christ" was announced as the next official single from the album. It peaked at number 30 on Billboard's Alternative Songs chart, becoming Brand New's biggest hit.[37] On January 19, the band performed the song on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. They performed it again on February 26 on the Late Show with David Letterman.[38]

From January to June 2007, the band toured the United States, Europe, Canada, and Australia, including a headline slot on the UK's Give It A Name festival and playing the main stage at The Bamboozle festival. Despite the band's reluctance towards the press around the time of the release of the album, they were featured in Alternative Press, a cover story for Rock Sound, Kerrang!, and NME. The band went on tour for the fall of 2007, with openers Thrice and MewithoutYou. In early 2008, Brand New toured Australia and New Zealand on the Big Day Out festival.[39]

Daisy (2008–2009)

[edit]

In March 2008, Brand New started their own record label, Procrastinate! Music Traitors. The first act signed to the new label was longtime friend Kevin Devine.[40] The first release from the label was a reissue of the 2006 Kevin Devine album, Put Your Ghost to Rest, in April 2008.[41]

In October 2008, Crime in Stereo's Alex Dunne revealed that Brand New were finishing the recording of a new album.[42] In December, Brand New announced on their website that they had been in the studio since March and had roughly 15 tracks to choose from.[43] On February 17, 2009, Brand New officially added touring guitarist Derrick Sherman to the band's full lineup.[44] Sherman, who is Lacey's cousin, had toured with the band since 2006 and contributed to The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me.[45]

Brand New performed at the Glastonbury Festival on June 28, 2009, debuting two new songs tentatively titled "Bride" and "Gasoline" and delaying the release of their album to October.[46] Brand New also played the main stage at the Reading and Leeds Festivals in August 2009. The band's sets at Reading and Glastonbury were both filmed by the BBC, but the band declined the BBC rights to broadcast either performance on television or online.[47][48]

On July 7, 2009, Brand New announced their fourth album, And One Head Can Never Die (stylized in all lowercase), would be released on September 22, 2009 through Interscope Records.[49] Two days later, the band changed the album's title to Daisy.[50] The lead single "At the Bottom" was released digitally on August 11.[51] Daisy saw frontman Jesse Lacey step away from his role as the band's primary lyricist, now sharing the duties with guitarist Vincent Accardi.[52] The album debuted at number six on the Billboard 200 in the United States, selling 46,000 records in its first week.[53]

Brand New announced a North American tour to promote Daisy, with opening acts including Coheed and Cambria, Manchester Orchestra, Thrice and Glassjaw. A concert at their hometown Nassau Coliseum sold over 6,000 tickets in the first day.[54] The band played its largest UK concert yet on January 23, 2010, headlining London's Wembley Arena in front of 12,500 people supported by Glassjaw and Thrice.[55]

Gap between albums (2009–2017)

[edit]

After the release of Daisy, Lacey denied rumors about it being the band's final album, but said "it might be our last full-length record for a little while."[56] Writing sessions for the band's fifth album began in 2009, shortly after its predecessor's release. Discussing the band's musical direction, Lacey believed Daisy "was like the end of a road".[57] Drummer Brian Lane said in early 2010 that with the rise of digital music releases, the band could put out a new song on a weekly or monthly basis instead of via full albums.[58]

On April 28, 2010, Brand New announced at their show in Clifton Park, New York that the band had parted ways with Interscope Records and was independent for the first time in this career.[59] On November 21, 2011, the band reissued their debut album Your Favorite Weapon with new artwork and bonus tracks.[60] The band was booked to enter a recording studio in April 2012, however, the members ultimately used this time for personal musical projects as opposed to recording Brand New.[61][62] In June 2013, the band cancelled their upcoming European summer tour, including a main stage performance slot at the Reading and Leeds Festivals, due to "insurmountable personal issues".[63]

On June 19, 2014, Brand New announced that the band had been writing and recording new material, as well as building their own studio.[64] Brand New played a co-headlining show with Modest Mouse at Forest Hills Stadium on August 9, 2014, only the third show at the venue in the last 15 years.[65]

Brand New debuted a new song, listed on the setlist as "Don't Feel Anything", on April 8, 2015 at the Fillmore Auditorium in Denver.[66] The song was retitled "Mene" and made available as a free download through the band's website on April 13, the band's first new release in six years.[67] A second new song, "Sealed to Me", was debuted at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles on April 15.[68] That month, Brand New played Coachella for the first time, which Pitchfork noted was part of a landmark moment for emo bands being allowed to play traditionally indie rock-oriented festivals.[69] The band also added a few European summer dates, including an appearance at Barcelona's Primavera Sound festival.[70][71] Brand New allowed their performances at Lollapalooza in Berlin on September 13, 2015, and Austin City Limits in Austin, Texas on October 3, 2015, to be broadcast.[72][73] This was a first for the band, as Lacey previously stated the band was not comfortable recording their live sets.[74]

In September 2015, an image of controversial medicine price-gouger Martin Shkreli wearing a Brand New shirt circulated on the internet. The band responded by putting the shirt on sale and donating all its proceeds to the Whitman-Walker Health center, which specializes in HIV/AIDS and LGBT healthcare.[75]

On December 2, 2015, the band officially released the leaked demos to The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me, which had popularly become known as Fight Off Your Demons among the fanbase, under the title Leaked Demos 2006. Its first release was on a limited-edition red cassette tape with a digital download card included.[76] On January 29, 2016, the band's label Procrastinate! Music Traitors revealed a list of the year's upcoming releases, including a new Brand New album.[77] On May 17, 2016, Brand New released another new single, "I Am a Nightmare", which was released to acclaim including a "Best New Track" honor from Pitchfork.[78][79]

In June 2016, Brand New began a co-headlining United States tour with Modest Mouse, which included a stop at New York City's iconic Madison Square Garden.[80][81] On July 13, 2016, the band released an EP called 3 Demos, Reworked. The EP contains re-recorded versions of 3 songs that appear on Leaked Demos 2006.[82] On July 22, 2016, the band released a physical 7" single of "Mene" with the b-side "Out of Range," a previously unreleased song that had been leaked in 2010.[83]

On September 26, 2016, the band revealed that the latest album that had previously been promised to fans would not be released in 2016. The band felt that the songs on the album were incomplete and needed more time to be deemed finalized.[84] The band also announced that it would be celebrating the 10-year anniversary of The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me by playing it in its entirety during the remainder of the tour.[85]

Breakup speculation

[edit]

In April 2015, Brand New began sending out lyric booklets for The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me to fans who followed the liner notes' instructions to mail the band $1 for lyrics nine years ago.[86] The booklet, named Pogolith 000, also contained a poster alluding to the release of the band's previously unreleased 2005 Fight Off Your Demons demos on cassette tape, as well as a postcard with the words "rip 2018", sparking rumors of a possible breakup of the band.[87] As part of Record Store Day 2015, the band rereleased their second album Deja Entendu as a limited vinyl, accompanied by Pogolith 00, a booklet containing the lyrics to the album. A standard edition, non-limited vinyl was made available on May 5, 2015.[88] Both Pogolith 000 and Pogolith 00 were later made available at shows and through the band's online store.[89]

On October 11, 2015, during a tour-ending performance at Ryman Auditorium, Lacey told the audience that "this isn't going to last much longer". He spoke about his friendships with the band, the possibility of a new album, and how he would soon be a father.[90] During their summer 2016 tour, the band released new shirt designs which read "2000–2018".[91] One of them was projected onto the stage after the band's set at the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver on June 2, increasing speculation that Brand New planned to break up in 2018. On June 28 in Salt Lake City, Lacey said between songs, "We’re done. Oh yeah, we’re done, and it makes nights like this all the more special so thanks for being here."[92] In September 2016, when Brand New announced that their fifth studio album would not be released that year as originally scheduled, the band issued more statements alluding to the band's end: "What’s left should be a strange demise, but hopefully one as loud and as fun as the rest of our time together has been. All are invited. Please send flowers."[85]

Science Fiction and disbandment (2017–2018)

[edit]

On August 15, 2017, the band announced on Instagram that their fifth LP would be released on vinyl in October 2017.[93] Two days later on August 17, many people who had pre-ordered the vinyl edition of the album received a CD (limited to 500) in the post that contained an album in its entirety, named Science Fiction, compressed into one 61-minute long track.[94] The album was later put up for sale on their website confirming it as their fifth LP. Science Fiction was met with widespread critical acclaim and commercial success, as it became Brand New's first album to debut at number one on the Billboard 200.

On September 13, 2017, Kevin Devine announced via Facebook that he would be taking time off of his own project, Kevin Devine and the Goddamn Band, to join Brand New on their Science Fiction tour as an additional guitarist and vocalist.[95] Nada Surf, a band Lacey has professed himself a fan of, served as the opening act for the tour.[96] During a performance in October 2017, Lacey further confirmed the band's end, stating "We’re gonna be a band for about 14 more months, so thank you so much for being here tonight."[5]

In November 2017, Lacey was accused of sexual misconduct occurring during the early and mid-2000s.[97] He issued a public apology on Brand New's Facebook page, prompting touring guitarist Kevin Devine and supporting act Martha to pull out of the upcoming European tour dates. The band later announced the postponement of all of their upcoming tour dates, which were not rescheduled.[98][99][100] Aside from a few meetings at guitarist Accardi's Joshua Tree home and at a Texas studio, they have remained publicly inactive since November 2017, neither confirming nor denying the break-up of the band.

On December 31, 2018, a track rumored to be titled "Simple Man", alleged to have been made prior to The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me, was leaked onto the internet.[101]

Later developments

[edit]

On October 25, 2021, John D'Esposito, the founder of The Bamboozle musical festival, revealed that he had attempted to convince Brand New to reform and play the 2023 edition of the festival, but the band declined his request.[102]

In December 2023, Brand New's partnered merchandise company SCP abruptly shut down, owing over $4 million across more than 300 clients including Brand New. It is believed that clients will not get more than “cents on the dollar” in terms of what they're owed.[103]

Musical style and influences

[edit]

Brand New is most often described as emo,[104][105][106][107] indie rock,[7][108][109] and alternative rock,[110] with their debut album Your Favorite Weapon described as pop-punk.[104][111]

The band has had a mixed relationship with the emo label. "I think emo started on this single-faceted idea of, 'I was hurt by someone else' ... but it's only a small part of the entire spectrum of emotion that people go through. Unfortunately, the struggle against this trend of music we were grouped in with has become a large part of our band," Lacey said in 2004.[112] Long Island concert promoter Christian McKnight said that "they never really had the scene association like Taking Back Sunday, and I think a lot of that was by choice. They became more brooding and isolated, and they weren’t part of the bigger scene at large."[113] Pitchfork wrote that "The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me is not an emo record. It might actually be post-emo."[114]

The band has rejected the pop punk label outside of Your Favorite Weapon, an album which the band is "somewhat ashamed of".[112] Drummer Brian Lane said, "We're not a pop punk band. The first record I can easily see it. The second record, there's nothing on it that says pop punk whatsoever... I don't hear any influences of NOFX or anything like that." Many reviews of Deja Entendu compared Brand New to Bright Eyes, which Lane said was "better than being compared to New Found Glory... that group of bands is getting old very quick and played out."[115] Lacey criticized mainstream pop punk in a 2003 Rolling Stone interview, referring to it as music "about how we've been wronged and got our hearts broken and nobody understands," and said that Brand New would be following in Radiohead's footsteps rather than Good Charlotte's.[116]

Influences

[edit]

Brand New has listed a wide variety of bands as influences. The band was known for naming The Smiths and their frontman Morrissey as favorites, including a reference to them on "Mix Tape".[117] Lacey taped the words "Hi Moz" to his guitar during the band's 2003 performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.[118] Lacey has also cited English rock bands such as Ride, The Stone Roses and The Beatles as major influences.[119] Brand New's noisier elements were influenced by adolescent favorites Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine.[120]

During the Daisy era, Lacey was influenced by Polvo, Archers of Loaf, Fugazi and Modest Mouse,[121] Accardi cited Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains and Stone Temple Pilots[122] while Tierney's bass playing emulated Hüsker Dü and The Jesus Lizard.[120] Brand New also paid homage to The Jesus Lizard's album Goat with the single artwork for "Jesus Christ".[123]

Brand New have toured with a number of their influences. Built to Spill opened for them in 2015, and the band embarked on a co-headlining tour with Modest Mouse in 2016.[124] Alternative Press recalled watching Brand New guitarist Vin Accardi play Modest Mouse's "3rd Planet" prior to a show in August 2001, before the band even released their debut album. "At the time, it was pretty unusual to see a pop-punk band jamming out to an indie tastemaker, but five years later, it all makes sense."[125]

Lacey has publicly expressed his fandom for bands that did not directly influence Brand New's sound, such as Radiohead, Bloc Party, Sigur Rós, and Explosions in the Sky.[121]

Legacy and influence

[edit]

Brand New has been recognized as one of the most beloved and important bands of the emo genre.[126][127][2] Their enduring following, described as "cult-like", is notable in that their fanbase and legacy have continuously remained strong throughout their entire career whereas other bands from the 2000s emo scene have faded into obscurity.[128] They have been widely praised by critics for creating artistic statements with their music instead of aiming for mainstream success like many of their contemporaries did.[129]

Ian Cohen of Pitchfork remarked, "popular guitar music in 2017 has been undeniably shaped by Brand New, a band who has served not just as damaged role models but as a formative musical influence."[130] Writing for The Outline, Zoe Camp stated that "they were increasingly sincere and self-aware in a genre where emotional histrionics were the default setting. Music like this made them, and Lacey, seem definitively different than Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz, Taking Back Sunday’s Adam Lazzara, or virtually any other sad white guy who once covered Alternative Press."[131] Spin declared that "Brand New didn’t just became a band, they became a lifeline and sanctuary for thousands upon thousands of messed-up kids."[132] Ryan Bassil of Noisey declared Brand New "to be crowned the best band of a generation."[133] Music writers have credited the eight-year gap between 2009's Daisy and 2017's Science Fiction as essential for the growth of Brand New's legacy in the music world.[130][134] In Chris Payne's 2023 retrospective novel Where Are Your Boys Tonight?: The Oral History of Emo's Mainstream Explosion 1999-2008, he named Brand New "arguably the most innovative and critically acclaimed band of their scene."[8]

Consequence of Sound named Brand New the ninth-best pop punk band of all time.[135]

Brand New's influence on emo rap has also been noted. Lindsay Zoladz of The Ringer said in 2017 that "your future favorite rapper might be listening to Brand New right now."[136] Emo rapper Lil Peep sampled Brand New's "The No Seatbelt Song" on his track "Crybaby".[137]

Artists influenced by Brand New include Manchester Orchestra,[126] mewithoutYou,[126] Cymbals Eat Guitars,[138] Citizen,[130] Oso Oso,[139] Amy Shark,[140] Sorority Noise,[141] You Me at Six,[142] Moose Blood and The Xcerts.[143] Pop singer Halsey has referred to their third album in particular as a major influence and Lacey as "largely responsible for why I write with such detail."[144][145]

Foxing lead singer Conor Murphy pointed to a motivational speech that Lacey gave the band before their first show opening for Brand New as a pivotal moment in the band's development.[146] Cymbals Eat Guitars singer Joe D’Agostino said that opening for Brand New exposed the band to a wider audience that would not have discovered them had it not been for the tour.[147] Thrice's 2015 reunion came about after band members witnessed an inspiring Brand New concert and conversed with the band about touring again.[148][149]
