Review: The Gaslight Anthem - American Slang
June 17th, 2010
Over the years since The Gaslight Anthem’s first album ‘Sink or Swim’, Brian Fallon and the boys from New Jersey have grown into a classic good ol’ rock n’ roll band. Any band who lists Bruce Springsteen as an influence is sure to create good music and The Gaslight Anthem are no exception.
‘American Slang’, their third studio album, is a good indication of how the band has grown and matured since their first release back in 2007. Their lead single titled ‘American Slang’ is a good indication of how the band has grown since their 2008 release ‘The 59′ Sound’. Similar to their previous albums there are a number of stand outs on this album and they include ‘Boxer’, ‘Orphans’, ‘Bring It On’ and the ballad ‘We Did It When We Were Young’.
Cover to cover this album is definitely worth a listen and if you get a chance go see them live because they put on an awesome rock and roll show. They are playing The Sound Academy July 14th and will not be a show to miss if you’re a fan of The Gaslight Anthem.
