The Brand New/Taking Back Sunday feud has been going on since the early 2000's but Adam Lazzara (TBS vocalist) just can't let it go. Speaking to OC Weekly, he was asked about Jesse Lacey:
When asked about playing a song like "There's No 'I' In Team," which directly references a longstanding feud with the band Brand New (specifically front man/former Taking Back Sunday bassist Jesse Lacey), Lazzara continues to add fuel to the old fire. "I think Jesse Lacey is just a dick," he says. "He just sucks. He's not a good person." Lazzarra goes on "Who am I to say?", he says. "There's somebody out there that's gonna say I'm not a good person. I don't know."
John Nolan was on Voice & Verse Podcast and had a pretty in depth talk about Straylight Run's first album.
To commemorate the album’s 10th anniversary, I caught up with John to chat about its creation, how he grew as a songwriter and just who the songs on Straylight Run are – or aren’t – about
