The Gaslight Anthem - History Books (October 27th 2023) Album • Page 97

lol no

 

Correct

 

It’s their 2nd or 3rd best for me

 

your best post

 

I just want to be clear @phaynes12. What is their best album?

 

Sink or Swim

 

all of their albums are tied for first place, including Señor and The Queen

 

I'd accept anything from the 2008 to 2012 run as Fallon's best.

 

BRB googling when that brief Molly and the Zombies run was lol

 

if we're talking Fallon's entire catalog it's Elsie by about 100 miles. as far as Gaslight is concerned I most days rank Slang as my number one.

 

Going through Handwritten again and Keepsake is better than I remember.

 

I was gonna ask why you’d omit his solo output then I remembered that Elsie came out in 2011.

 

I imagine I’ll be the Outlier who has Sleepwalkers muuuuuch higher than the rest lol

 

‘59
Slang
Elsie
Handwritten
Sleepwalkers
History Books
Get Hurt (Deluxe)
Local Honey (this being Milo’s favorite album is doing some WORK lol)
Painkillers

 

yeah Elsie is the best overall, his first 2 solo albums are my bottom 2

 

i like a lot of songs on Sleepwalkers but the songs I don't like, i really don't like lol

 

Such a strong record with the exception of “Proof of Life”. Going back to back with Little Nightmares and the title track then closing with Watson and SYOTOS gets me every time.

 

lol I have such a soft spot for that album. See You On The Other Side was our wedding song and it was just such a big part of me and Beads getting really serious and getting engaged/married.

 

Proof of Life might be his worst song…?

 

No shot lol. Looking at you Mojo Hand. I also wanna ding I Don’t Mind (If I’m With You) only for it being another one of his songs and him pretending to not have noticed haha

 

Etta James is really the only song I like on the first half, the title track is alright but the last like 3 songs are the only ones on there that i love.

 

Mojo hand fucking RULES lol

 

I’ve been listening to this remixed version of History Books a lot lately, but I’m not sure yet where i’d rank it. I feel like I need to go on a long walk with it in late October/early November since that’s obviously the vibe it was originally going for

 

Lol there are some days where I like it and some days I couldn’t less be in the mood for it.

 

admittedly I haven't listened to this album in a while, but I remember liking "Proof of Life" better than "Her Majesty's Service"

and "Mojo Hand" definitely rules
