...Foregoing the long, clever track titles of “Deja Entendu” (“Good To Know That If I Ever Need Attention All I Have To Do Is Die,” “Sic Transit Gloria…Glory Fades”) in favor of short, concise names, the album’s lyrics, while still catchy, lack some of Brand New’s previous ego and cuteness.

Meanwhile, a mandatory R rating for movies that feature smoking has been endorsed by the World Health Organization and the American Medical Association among other groups.
