    I bet the pressure to release a great record is probably getting to them. At this point, the band is probably overthinking every single detail on every single song.

    i like this answer more haha.

    I'd have a terrible time guessing any band's revenue, but i struggle to get my head around them making it this long on revenue split 5 ways. I mean, if they do, then they do, and i'm just underestimating their success, but 7 years is a long time, and tours don't go very long...i'd imagine at some point you just want a part time job or something haha

    I can see this. Plus a lot of people didn't dig "I Am a Nightmare" either. I personally loved that song.

    i'm writing a book, leave me alone.

    Holy shit, I get to see all of Devil and God played live again? Didn't think I could be anymore excited for their show on the 22nd, but I am!

    Who's to say they're not picking up a few shifts at Dunkin' in the off season. I'm pretty sure Jesse served me a fritter a year or two ago

    but seriously, I at least appreciate they're letting us know now instead of leaving us hanging

    I think some poster on here or the old site said with a degree of authority they definitely have dayjobs

    Truly do not give a fuck. We'll get an album when we get an album and now I get to go see TDAG played in it's entirety in a few weeks.

    That's what I figured, but having never seen any posts regarding people seeing them around, I started to wonder more, hence my initial question. It's not unusual to hear about bands' members workin at a label or something, so I figured if Jesse, for example, was working somewhere, surely someone would've ran into him at work and mentioned it here.

    If this next release is truly their "farewell album," I say let them take their time.

    I'd much rather live in a world with a Brand New that continues to tease me with the potential for new music, than one where they don't exist at all.

    I think people are way too distracted by the hype to realize that Brand New is most certainly coming to an end soon.

    Like, how are people not sad about that?

    Stoked for D&G live. I've gotten to the point with Brand New to just not expect anything. Not really disappointed since its been 7 years

    Jesse's wife is a tailor and works with big name athletes: Steph Curry and Kris Bryant to name a few. I'm betting she does pretty well for herself.

    I'm not that sad because for one thing it's still 2 years away, and because if they can't commit to an album, why would I believe they would commit to actually breaking up. Would anyone be surprised if in 2018 they said they decided they needed 2 more years to do something else?

    I feel like not being able to commit to an album is a pretty good indicator of breaking up, or am I just crazy?

    I've said from Day 1 that I don't believe that 2018 date. It's IMPOSSIBLE to know how you're going to feel two years down the road. 2017 may be the best year of their lives and they may say, 'wow, how can we give this up?'

    Well, it's nice that they got that out that in the open. TDAG in full is cool news too.

    These guys are gonna release something this year. They are trolling.

    Disappointing but not unexpected. Want them to release something they feel good about, plus I'm so down with them playing that album in its entirety this fall.

    did they ever really promise an album this year? or was it more of a goal? let them take their time, the latest single wasn't bad but it seemed like a demo or a fun song rather than something serious. i'd much rather have them write a great album that holds up to their previous work. plus, if they mentioned breaking up in 2018... why are people saying this album will come out after their break up? it's going to come out in 2017, they'll do a few tours, and unless they have a mindblowing year that makes the band more important than their families all of a sudden... that will be it. seems pretty obvious.

    I see what you're saying, but there could be a ton of reasons they keep delaying it. Doesn't necessarily mean they want to be done. I just don't think we can assume anything they say is 100% true or will turn out the way they say.
    That, and I could also see them just saying it as a way to build up hype and keep them seeming mysterious and keeping their image. Make sure people come to all of their tours, since you never know when it could be the last. Then in 2018 they go on tour with a new album and say they love the album so much they can't quit now, or whatever something like that. i could of course be completely wrong and we may never hear from Brand New again after 2018.
