Help me out guys, the first 10 seconds of In the Water sound really similar to something, but what?

I expected both the songwriting and lyricism to be more mature at this point.

Who knows, maybe it'll grow on me.

I have the same with the chorus of 451 and No Control. Maybe I'm just imagining things

That first riff on In the Water is definitely almost exactly lifted from something else and its going to drive me crazy until I figure out what it is

I have already said it:





Sowing 5ing this is like a mother telling her son that he is the best child in the world....





"Can't Get It Out" and tracks 9-11 are garbage.



The rest is pretty good up to really great- "Lit Me Up", "In The Water" and "Batter Up" are fantastic, subtle, atmopsheric songs.

I like 451 personally, but I agree Can't Get it Out is bad.

This thing is the perfect soundtrack to House of Leaves.

@AriDoe - I loved Mene. I loved when they were opening their 2015 tour with that jam. Having said that, I'm glad it's not on here. Firstly because according to my iTunes that song has 63 plays and it's 2 years old. I just am glad we have it as a single and these 12 new bangers

Just as I thought Manchester Orchestra was gonna go and run away with album of the year for me Brand New had to go and release this. In The Water is so damn good

I dunno, this album seems to be getting hype because it's Brand New. I've never really followed this band too closely but this album is just... so... bland.

I'm not really understanding the hate for 'Can't get it out', too radio-friendly? Easily a highlight on this album
