Brand New (band) Options

Anybody likes them ?
They sound pretty grunge which is unusual these days. The singer's voice reminds me of Dave Pirner from Soul Asylum.

I'm discovering the Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me album and I must say I really like the first 4 tracks. That's a hell of a rageous rock !!
The 5th track is a bit too long and slow so I think it breaks the rythm of the album, but I need to dig the rest of this CD a little more.

I listened to their most popular song The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows. Sounds too emo for my taste. I really like Soul Asylum and don't hear Dave at all in this. Anyone like this band but OP? I don't wanna be a downer.

I guess the guitarist has good hooks and that little breakdown on sowing season where he was all like "I'm not your friend, I'm not your lover" was pretty cool. It is just wayy heavier than it should have been. Acoustic please?
