"The writing on the wall", or "the hand writing on the wall", or "the writing is on the wall" or "Mene Mene", is an idiom implying that a (usually) negative event is easily predictable based on the current situation. Often, the event is seen as hard to avert. A direness similar to an "impending doom" can be implied.

I had to look that up too. There's a theory that BN breaks up before 2018. BN cryptically confirmed it. Bye.

It's so funny how people look into Brand New as if they're like Death Grips or Tool. Have they really ever been cryptic? Ever since I've listened to them which was around when Devil and God came out, they just simply release music, put out some represses, and announce tour dates. Nothing out of the ordinary to me.

Welll...I'll be damned...

If you look in the top left picture, towards the bottom you will see a little print with spotlights shining upward. It says:"218114414523/ rip 2018/ 'Know God's Just Work'."

 

I don't know what that last bit is about, but those random numbers spell out B R A N D N E W when you translate them to correspond to their respective numerical position in the alphabet. B=2 R=18 A=1...

 

That's what I meant by a cryptic (literally) confirmation of the band breaking up in 2018 (rip 2018). Not to mention the song Mene actually says "I'll lay this beast to rest [...] there was something I was trying to say, but then I choked on it and it's getting kind of late...etc."

 

That's all I was saying when I was talking about their cryptic nature. I still <3 you Morrisey. U da best.

This whole impending doom/writing on the wall thing I think is spelling out they're going to break up, which sucks, but Jesse has said he doesn't want to be one of those bands that's doing this when they're 40. Personally I'd like to believe the RIP just means maybe they'll stop playing stuff from the first 2 albums or means they'll be going in a different direction, but who knows. 

I saw somewhere, someone had a theory that they were going to write this album as if TDAGARIM and Daisy didn't exist, because had those demos not been leaked, they probably wouldn't. This one really does sound immediately post-Deja with some flairs of Daisy in the noisy guitars. 

All I know is I hope more of the album sounds energetic like this, I need some new gym music badly.

I think I read that somewhere too, but in any case if the new album maintains this "Mene" sound I'll be stoked. I'm very happy with it. It has a very Deja feel, and you're right, I detect some Daisy in there as well.

Would make sense, put out the new/last album and do a final tour in 2018. In the meantime pump out represses, do expensive shows here and there over the next 2 years, go out with a bang and fat bank accounts.
