The Gaslight Anthem - History Books (October 27th 2023) Album • Page 51

Brian said "Rangers sucks!" before they played it the other night, so now it's my least favorite live song! (Not seriously holding that against them or the song. It was still a blast!)

 

I don't get too involved in the discourse about individual songs, so I wasn't aware this was a disliked song. I love it! It's different.

 

like I said stay vicious is good I just don't need to hear it live anymore.

 

I love the theory that Howl is a Thunder Road sequel.

 

I remember Brian saying in an interview around 2013 that Brendan O’Brien was “their guy” moving forward, so I was always a little curious what happened between then and Get Hurt. Have to wonder what he would’ve done with that album.

 

to me this is canon

 

Prob help them finish the songs haha

 

Might fuck around and go to the second Dublin date they announced as well??

 

and cut the bad ones

 

Been spinning this a lot and it might be my favorite TGA album. I feel like I have a new favorite song each time I listen.

 

Well, I obviously didn’t doubt anyone but The 59 Sound is fantastic. High Lonesome been in my head all day

 

Finally got around to this. This is so good. Really hits hard walking around in the park. Perfect fall album.

 

Anyone else get Pinkerton vibes from I Live in the Room Above Her?

I recommend learning every word by heart and THEN discovering Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits, Tom Petty etc.
(This will work best if you are 18 and it is the year 2008)

 

When I first listened to this, I wasn’t too keen on the opening to Spider Bites. But by the time that chorus hit, I knew I’d really enjoy this.

 

I love Spider Bites.

 

The Weatherman rules so hard. It needs to be on the setlist from here on out.

 

Seconded!

 

I'm loving how often I come back to this. I don't think there's been a morning where I wasn't singing Spider Bites.

 

best song - WE CAME TO DANCE

?

 

It's up there for sure

 

The lead guitar in the bridge of that song is so cool.

 

Cool song, nowhere near the top tier

 

I SURE wish they would add it to the set list
