This review refers to
The '59 Sound (CD version).
I was first hooked onto The Gaslight Anthem after hearing The '59 Sound on the Kerrang '08 album. I found myself unable to go on to the next song and just going back and listening again. I was so enamoured with the song I went out and got the album that weekend and I've not once regretted it.
All the other reviews here comparing their sound to The Boss are quite right - Bruce even performed The '59 Sound with the band during their set at Glastonbury this year. It's a blinding performance - if you can hunt it down, check it out.
All the songs on the album are great but I think my highlights would be Great Expectations, The '59 Sound, High Lonesome and The Backseat. This is an absolute bargain of an album - buy it, love it, spread the word.
