The Gaslight Anthem - The 59 Sound

[RP]

Best album of 2008. No contest

AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZINGGGGGGG BAND

I havent been this in love since I discovered Alkaline Trio.

[RP]

seriously...holy shit

[Blitz]

Yeah they are pretty ridic. Old White Lincoln might be the catchiest song of the year.

Also pretty hot live. Saw them open for Rise Against.

[RP]

there's not a bad song on this album. They're all great. The Patient Ferris Wheel is my favorite song of the year possibly. But they're all my favorites.

I thought last night that i might be over hyping this album, but after 3 more full listens, its for sure the best album i've heard in a couple of years. Its like young Bruce Springstien, with a punk twist.

[El Capitano Gatisto]

I just downloaded it a couple of days ago, not listened yet though. I download anything compared to Bruce Springsteen because he is a musical God.

[RP]

Listen now. I dont go hyping albums out of nowhere. This one just blew me away.

[The Greater Power]

Thanks to this thread I decided to go d/l it. My friend has also been obsessing over it but I never went out of my way to hear it.

Great Expectations is ridiculous. Haven't listened to the last 3 songs yet. Their vocals sound similar to the Killers. But these guys are 1000x better.

[Indifferent Clox]

I love gaslight anthem

[MVP]

This album is extremely catchy.

[Impeccable]

Fantastic band...downloaded a few songs in Feb/March based on a piece in Kerrang magazine on them...blew me away.

[St. Jimmy]

Best fucking band i've heard in forever. WOW.

[Requiem]

Downloading now. I hope I didn't get excited for nothing. :mad:

[Triple Naitch]

You guys convinced me. I'm currently downloading the album. So far so good.

[MVP]

Just want to reiterate, I :heart: this band.

[Triple Naitch]

The first 4 songs are golden. The rest is good too. Really glad I took your guys' advice.

[Requiem]

Not doing much for me. They are not unpleasant to listen to by any means, but I don't really find myself wanting to listen to them anymore. Not sure what the fuss is about.

[mitchables]

I guess.
