Brand New Reveal First New Single in Six Years, "Mene"
After performing their first new track in years, "Mene," last week, Brand New aren't wasting a moment and released the studio version of the track.
It's is more or less what we heard the other day, but on this polished-up version we get more vocal layers on the verses, and then the mix of singing and screaming on the chorus—with the "We don't feel anything!" hook just begging to be hollered by emo purists or anyone looking to hearken back to their angstier days.
Not only does the new song prove that the Long Island rockers haven't lost the aggression they're famous for (thank goodness), but they also haven't lost their penchant for high-energy rock we heard in their earlier records. Strictly tempo-wise, "Mene" is one of the fastest Brand New songs in awhile.
