about this album
New Brigade was well received by critics upon release. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has received an average score of 85, based on 18 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim". Pitchfork Media gave the album an 8.4 and the rating of Best New Music, saying that "New Brigade is a refreshing and extraordinary debut. These four have located a punk-rock sweet spot: mixing the black atmosphere of goth, the wild-limbed whoosh of hardcore, and the clangor of post-punk. It's a feat made all the more impressive by one very important intangible: energy." The Washington Post also praised the debut, saying that "In an era of rock-gone-easy-listening and endless reunions, 'New Brigade' is a reminder of how powerful a noisy, new band with something to prove can sound. The kids maintain an unrelenting intensity throughout the album’s 12 songs." User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
