''Deja Entendu'' is the second album from Long Island based rock band Brand New, released in 2003. It was widely praised for showing the band's maturation from ''Your Favorite Weapon''. The album's title is French for "already heard" and is a commentary on modern rock. Two singles/videos were released from the album: "The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows" and "Sic Transit Gloria...Glory Fades."〔(【引用サイトリンク】inTuneMusic Online: Brand New @ Mahwah 4/3 )〕 There are three pressings of the vinyl. The first pressing is of 1,000, and has a barcode on the back of the gatefold. The second pressing does not have a barcode. On March 2nd, 2015, the band stated that they were going to repress the record. It would be first released for Record Store Day (April 18) in limited packaging, with a wider release on May 5th. Both were pressed on 180-gram black vinyl. ==Background and composition== Brand New's second studio album was written in "the year and-a-half or two years" that they were touring the material from ''Your Favorite Weapon''.〔 According to drummer Brian Lane, "Jesse () wrote a lot of the lyrics about different things than 'I just broke up with my girlfriend' for the new record." Lacey wrote the songs on an acoustic guitar in his bedroom. Several of the song titles reference films. The first track entitled "Tautou" references the lead actress, Audrey Tautou, in the movie ''Amélie''.〔Dworken 2003, p. 24〕 "Okay I Believe You, But My Tommy Gun Don't" is a line from ''Home Alone 2: Lost in New York'' and the song "Sic Transit Gloria...Glory Fades" is a line from Wes Anderson's film ''Rushmore''.〔("Albums Of The Decade: Brand New – Deja Entendu (2003)" ). ''awmusic.ca''. Retrieved 2010-10-18.〕 In addition, the line "And I've seen what happens to the wicked and proud when they decide to try to take on the throne for the crown" (from 'Jaws Theme Swimming') is a reference to a line from the 1999 film ''Dogma'', specifically referencing a line of Matt Damon's character Loki. The song "Play Crack the Sky" was about the 1951 shipwreck of the FV Pelican at Montauk Point, New York where 45 people lost their lives within a mile of the light house. Lacey claimed the song "touches on parts of life that I don't talk about a lot () I have grown up around water being from living on Long Island. Surfing, sailing, fishing, that's a huge part of my life apart from the band." The ending of the song is a reference to the run-out groove on the Beatles' ''Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'' (1967).〔McMahon, ed. 2015, p. 19〕 The album was produced by Steven Haigler.〔Santangelo 2003, p. 7〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Deja Entendu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
