I seriously doubt this album was ever a collection of unrelated b-sides, there's way too much cohesion and thematic continuity.

I agree noler — can I call you noler, or do you prefer bowler? Even though there are a variety of styles, it does feel very cohesive and part of a bigger package/picture. And the songs seem too good to be all b sides.

@noler there is definitely something cohesive here, but I think a lot of it is because of the tapes that play between songs. Other than that, it's really just the couple of "alien" related lines in 451 and Batter Up. If you look at the lyrical themes, an even the instrumentals themselves, it's really all across the board.

In the style of my Thank You Scientist soundoff:



Just pleased Iain Banks didn't live to see the good name of science fiction dragged through the dirt by a pop punk band

I mean I guess they were a pop punk band at one point (I still haven’t heard YFW) but yeah generalizing them as a pop punk band is just inaccurate whether you like them or not.

Brand New are pop-punk in the same way that The Beatles are just a boy band.
