The Gaslight Anthem

[Ignatius]

Here's a band some of you may enjoy. If you only like "metal" you should skip this...but if you like different music genres, you should definitely check them out.

The Gaslight Anthem is an indie band from New Jersey. A friend of mine recommended them and I bought the album just a few days ago "The '59 Sound" I just can't stop listening to it. Heavily influenced by the Boss, Tom Petty and punk. Very interesting mix.

Definitely one of the best new bands out there.

Here's a few links

Bumping this. Everyone should check out their new album, American Slang.

Awesome band, one of my current favourites. Both albums are cool and can't wait to see them live in few months. Obviously they got huge Springsteen influences, but Boss rules too.

I had never heard of them before yesterday until someone recommended their newest album and now I can't get enough of it. I'm going to pick up their previous releases this week.

13 in a dozen band, seen them live and hear them on the radio all the time.
I'm not impressed. They're not that bad, but, well, I'm just not impressed.

These guys originated from a town right by me in NJ, never seen them live but I know their families.

Probably will end up seeing them at some point this year.
