The Gaslight Anthem Announce New Album Get Hurt
It doesn’t feel right to call New Jersey’s Gaslight Anthem a punk band anymore. Instead, in the wake of 2012’s deeply satisfying Handwritten, it makes more sense to call them one of the best straight-up no-qualifiers rock bands currently operating on a larger stage. The band has just announced plans for Get Hurt, album number five. They recorded this one in Nashville, and they’re claiming that it’s relatively stripped-down, though it’s not like this band has ever abused string sections or Mellotrons. The album will be out in a couple of months. In the meantime, check out the tracklist and a teaser video that features a bit of opening track Stay Vicious.
