I actually really do hear the Springsteen in them. Never heard of this band before, but they have a good sound.

 

[JerseyGirl]

Glad you gave them a listen Lola. They're coming out with a new album for 2012. I'll post some songs to this thread when it's available.

 

[METALPRIEST]

Kinda like Sprinsteen meets Jet....maybe I'm hearing it wrong. Sound about right?

 

[JerseyGirl]

^^^Yup, I'd say you're right MP.


Here's a great video of Bruce rockin' with Gaslight Anthem:

Everyone raves about The '59 Sound, but I prefer their debut album Sink or Swim. American Slang is a really good LP to and there's so many would be hits on there I've no idea why that didn't take them into the stratosphere in terms of sales!

I really like their song 45

 

[Soot and Stars]

I really like their song 45

This is my favorite track off of the new one Sunny! It has a Cornell-ish sound to it!

Too Much Blood

 

[Sunny]

I like it and see what you mean about the Cornell-ish feel.
