The Gaslight Anthem are new to my ears and so refreshing. I have been turning people on to them as often as possible and my description often includes them as being a combination Tom Petty and the Heart Breakers meet Green Day.
Oh For Sure but only that part of Bruce that includes the Hungry heart, Loose Ends, Be True type of vibe. It is pop melody Bruce that they remind off. Lyrically and thematically, they have a ways to go, but are on the right track for sure.
@covrc I think I'd go more Rise Against + Springsteen...but yeah the Tom Petty comparison is definitely something you could argue...well basically they're just pretty much the shit
Ugh! I hate those guys, if it weren't for them I'd been done with my essay already and fast asleep, instead I sit here watching them..they're too awesome for my own good T_T
Saw them last night in gothemburg, sweden...fuck me....these guys can sure rock. Best live act since god knows when! Got goosebumps just listnening to this shitty sound!
brian fallon plays his music with such a passion even if its just a cover he lays it as if it was his own thats wat i respect in musicians is if they generaly like to play not that sell out shit thats happened to many bands
I saw them a few weeks ago. They opened up for Thrice, Alkaline Trio, and Rise against. Their performance absolutely blew me away. Very much a Bruce Springsteen feel. I was shocked. Bought all their cds.
yea i saw that tour also, i felt like gaslight anthem should of been 2nd to last band, and alklaine trio the headliner...but thats just me. and yes you do get the bruce feel, how brian will just start singing some old blues in the slower parts of songs.
Why is it sad? They chose to support them on that tour. And, sure Rise Against is terrible, but it opens them up to a huge and quite diverse audience. I'm quite proud of how far this band has come, and they still sound pretty similar to the way the did in the beginning.
this show was on my birthday and it blew me away, loved ones were good that night seen em 3 times previosly but the gaslight anthem completely blew me away.
Who doesn't like TP?

Nice cover. Check out the video of The Bings, recorded live in 1980 - and they got the guitar solo right.

It's sort of sad that TGA is forced to open for bands like Rise Against.
