"The Gaslight Anthem continue to combine completely unremarkable, middle of the road alt rock with a quaint heartland aesthetic"

I heard a lot of hype around The '59 Sound, checked it out and thought pretty much aaaaalllllllll this. Though I listened to a few songs from Handwritten, it sounded better than '59.

i've really never understood the hype for this band. i tried when their last album came out, just couldn't get into it. i figured i'd give them another chance so i listened to one song off of this a few days ago and it was so boring i didn't even get through the whole song.

They're okay. Nothing special.

I like this album a whole lot more than you do, but you've made some good points. I agree, they do sound more plastic with each album. I really do love the 59 Sound, partly because of when I first listened to it, it was different than my normal stuff I spun. Sadly, this and American Slang don't even touch the 59 sound with a whatever-foot pole. And I agree with the banana, Titus is not guilty of this stuff.

Pretty good review, but you didn't really explain much to how this is a 1.5
I'm not fond of the band though

It's great rock and roll and at this point I would assume anyone picking this up is wanting to hear this bands particular sound. They are typical american blue collar rock done particularly well imho. Any familiarity to any other musician just means they have influences... kind of like 99.9% of every other musician to ever put pencil to pad and I think that can be forgiven.
Nice blurb, well phrased - POS.

cheers fellas
this: "clearly has designs on being perceived as gut wrenchingly sincere and anthemic but instead falls on the wrong side of bombast" is the part i was referring to with titus andronicus, and it's all over the monitor. basically some guy spilling his guts on top of over-anthemic, turgid music that doesn't stand up under the weight of its aspirations
