So, I was pumped that Best Week Ever decided to show a little love for the Gaslight Anthem, blasting "The '59 Sound" during this past week's episode... But check the plug on the website.Shout-outs to the Gaslight Anthem and THS in one entry. Niiiice. |

They're this year's Against Me!, just watch.
1/2 the scene is going to completely alienate them sooner or later.

That's great. I got into them and Hold Steady around the same time. I was home for my winter break and just kinda needed some great pick-me-up music. Two bands that are totally shaping the sounds of my year so far

Off With Their Heads' new 7" collection is entitled The 69 Sound. You have no idea how much hate they're getting on punknews right now. The whole OWTH thing isn't so much of Ryan hating The Gaslight Anthem though, it's more of him hating everything. |

The whole OWTH thing isn't so much of Ryan hating The Gaslight Anthem though, it's more of him hating everything. Good thing I don't care what punknews says (even though their readers seem to have selected The '59 Sound as their favorite album of 2008, besting the D4 record.) You know what? I'm not the target demographic anymore. The marketing people behind Tide care more about my buying power than most bands or labels or blogs/zines/whatever do. I liked the Against Me! record. Do I wrap myself up in concern as to whether the "punks" still like them? Nope. I really like The '59 Sound. If the cool kids don't like them, that's fine by me. Fewer "too cool for school" types to deal with at what few shows I get to attend. Right now, to me, loving Seals and Crofts is more punk than anything I can think of. Man, this makes me sound old, defensive, and bitter. I promise I'm not. |

The commenters of Punknews.org are one group of people I won't ever listen to concerning music.

Good thing I don't care what punknews says (even though their readers seem to have selected The '59 Sound as their favorite album of 2008, besting the D4 record.) Every now and again they make good points, but overall it's a lot of bitter/idiotic bullshit. The fact that the new Gaslight Anthem record beat out the new D4 record doesn't mean all that much though, considering the build up to that record was way too much for any band to deliver to. |
