Brian Fallon - Local Honey (March 27, 2020) Album • Page 33

man, chris doesn't even look like a human anymore

 

Not that I give a shit but did he get work done? Botox?

 

i meant more his eyes being the same color as his hair. it’s disturbing lol

 

pretty easily my least favorite of brian's albums outside of get hurt. can't get into it at all.

 

Our top seven are very similar. I like Blue Jeans but never connected with it, probably because I only listened to the EP after already loving TGA's other works.

My top 20, in order

The 59 Sound
Great Expectations
The Backseats
American Slang
Mulholland Drive
Miles Davis and the Cool
Here's Looking at You, Kid
Bring It On
Mae
We Came To Dance
Old White Lincoln
Get Hurt
Even Cowgirls Get the Blues
I Could'a Been a Contender
Dark Places
Boomboxes and Dictionaries
Too Much Blood
45
Film Noir
Handwritten

 

Did anyone ever do a gaslight song bracket?

 

I don't remember but seems like a lot of work to award "The 59 Sound"

 

I mean going album by album. I think that part would be interesting.
59 sound probably wins the whole thing sure.

 

For sure I would participate.

And we would have to talk about how underrated Get Hurt is

 

Any list with Cowgirls and Dark Places in the top 20 works for me.

 

I believe last time it happened "The Backseat" may have won. It's definitely happened before, although I don't know if any solo/Crowes songs were included.

 

Hmm. I don't recall ever seeing one.
Yeah, I would be shocked if the Backseat or 59 Sound didn't win the whole thing.
Like i said, more interested in the song vs. song battles within albums and the commentary from others.

 

I think it was in the Gaslight Anthem thread - no specific album or anything. But it's like 200 pages at this point so I don't know.

 

It happened and Backseat and 59 were definitely the finalists.

 

I think a Gaslight bracket which includes solo work would be the hardest time of my life ... so I’m in.

 

I have no idea why but it took forever for The Backseats go really click for me. The moment came when I realised the ferris wheel lines perfectly encapsulated the entire album and band in one couplet. The entire anthem became immeasurably more impactful from then on.

 

I assume others know this, but BF released a Dylan cover on Soundcloud - "License to Kill". It is, as always, worth going and buying.

Didn't see it mentioned in this thread.

Enjoy

 

Good article here. Although it kinda bugs me when he says he didn't want to be famous, even though there were articles around that time that were ALL ABOUT how they wanted to headline arenas. Rings a bit disengenuous to me.

After Years In The Spotlight, Brian Fallon Is Finally Comfortable With Who He Is — Kerrang!

 

It’s up on bandcamp too as part of a comp called Don’t Stop Now volume 3.

 

Shit, Bandcamp is what I meant to say. My bad.

 

It’s may be out in other places too, but that’s where I got it from.

Ive been watching a lot of his Sittin’ Around At Home interviews too.

 

not really. He says it right in the article that something changed and he realized he didn’t want to be famous.

 

OH YES

 

Fuck yes
