That Basement band shamelessly rips off Brand New and/or The Pixies at every turn.

Do people really think Brand New sounds like The Smiths? I know they are one of Jesse's influences, but I don't think they sound anything alike.

I can't see all the links posted (cuz they're mostly YouTube, which is blocked at work) but you should listen to some old Modest Mouse... Moon and the Antarctica must've been a huge influence on br& new

Change the thread title to "bands that sound like Brand New and are good."

Not to say most of the bands listed here were crap, just that there are way too many shameless Brand New ripoffs that are starting to be really shitty.

I think its shitty how many bands brand new have "ripped off".

Having influences and ripping off are two different things. These masses of pop punk/alternative bands literally aspire to be like Brand New which is fine and all, but it gets very tiring.

It's kind of difficult to rip off multiple bands at once, especially in an album as cohesive as Devil and God. Not to mention there aren't many bands that place such emphasis on dynamics. Old school indie/college rock, emo/screamo and hell even some post-hardcore influences are all present in Devil and God.
