really solid release from these Jersey punks.. sounds like a (heavily) SPRINGSTEEN-influenced AGAINST ME! with a sprinkle of THE CURE at times. a good summer rock record...good drinking or driving music.... [codebox]http://rapidshire.co...e-2008.zip.html[/codebox]

great album. reminds me of sam's town with better lyrics and less over-emoting. love this.

so... bump!!

[washing machine]

Yeah, this is actually really solid. Why do they continue to tour with shitty bands like Rise Against, though?

why do any other talented punk bands settle for mediocrity? change ain't easy.

This album is really great and really fun.

I would have never thought this would be something I'd enjoy. That original link is down. This one works..

The Gaslight Anthem

[solace]

saw these guys tonight as i've been loving '59 Sound... they're the real fucking deal super super tight live band who appear to be pretty young (early to mid 20's). pretty sure they'll be signed in the next 6 months.

[spiritofeden]

this is the biggest Springsteen rip off i've ever heard. and its awsome. The 59' Sound accoustic version sounds like it could belong on Nebraska.

i'm not sure which thread is which... sorry.

i just got this record yesterday and can't stop playing it... i can see this being pretty high on my year end list.

if anybody else is curious and you have ever loved The Replacements and Bruce Springsteen, buy this fucking record.

i will try and get a link up here in the next few days... so many Sombies will dig this. fuck The Killers.

hey somebody post that acoustic '59 Sound, will ya'?

[swede]

definitely one of the most solid releases this year.... chock full of goodness from front to back..

[Hewletts Daughter]

I got a text last night demanding I download this and check it out. I did download it and will begin listening to it shortly. I have high hopes for it..

fuck The Killers.

No.....

[Hewletts Daughter]

ok this is really, really good. wow. just good old fashioned rock 'n roll here. nothing fancy or frilly about it. dudes with guitars singing about things that dudes sing about.

and yes, fuck the Killers

yeah, seriously into this thing right about now... love how they embrace the Springsteen influence and in the the lyrics to that one song, "at nite i wake up with sheets soaking wet and i think you know the rest" or something like that. whoa... they are playing tomorrow nite at The Congress with Rise Against and Alkaline Trio. decisions.

[Hewletts Daughter]

I saw that, too. I think seeing them in a smaller venue would be >>> seeing them in a shit venue surrounded by smelly punk kids. I shall hold out and stick to my 'go see the Melvins' plan, instead.

[swede]

they are certainly on some piss-poor bills:

Wednesday 17-Dec Chicago, IL HOUSE OF BLUES - CHICAGO Shinedown, Saving Abel

[solace]

y'know... mine was the same lineup, granted i got in free, but it was worth the drive to the suburbs to see these guys but yeah, an Alkaline Trio show in their hometown i'd imagine is pretty crazy, so maybe notsomuch headlining US tour in March apparently, after Europe

[swede]

headlining US tour in March apparently, after Europe

nice!!

has anyone heard their back-catalogue. i believe they have several older lps?
