The Making Of American Slang – The Gaslight Anthem
New Jersey’s finest – The Gaslight Anthem, release their highly anticipated new album ‘American Slang’ on June 14th.
Produced by Ted Hutt (who produced the band's acclaimed last release ‘The ’59 Sound’), ‘American Slang’ heralds a dramatic leap forward for The Gaslight Anthem. Tracks such as “Bring It On,” “Orphans” and “Stay Lucky” bristle and burn with the spirit of soul and the artistic adventurousness and impressive confidence of band that has come into its own and found its own voice.
The album is available for pre-order on ITunes UK (extra exclusive track “She Loves You” and digital booklet) and HMV.com will also have a deluxe edition available to order (album, T-Shirt and badges). Head over to link to get your copy now!
2009 was a monumental year for The Gaslight Anthem. The band toured the world in support of their acclaimed album ‘The ’59 Sound’ and were featured performers at major festivals including Coachella, Rock Am Ring, Glastonbury, Pinkpop, Lollapalooza, Reading and Leeds, Hyde Park Calling, Fuji Rock, Hurricane, Gurten and Roskilde.
‘The ’59 Sound’ was named one of the best albums of the year (and, in some cases, the decade) by NME, Kerrang!, Q Magazine, VISIONS, Rock Sound and Big Cheese, and the band won the “Best International Newcomer” award at last year's Kerrang! Awards as well.
The band has announced a UK tour in support of the new album. They will also be performing at many European Festivals this summer.
