Also, I just realized that the new Brian Fallon song is being released the same day as the release of season 2 of Stranger Things, which is a beautiful thing. Perfect way to kick off Halloween weekend.

 

Backseat

 

I have work 10:30am - 11pm tomorrow. That shift won’t drag on at all knowing a new Brian Fallon song will be out.

 

It’s okay bud. At least Sink or Swim is NOW back on US Spotify!

 

Dude, just stay up tonight. Might find it on Apple Music around 10pm CST.

 

Great Expectations, although neither of these are in my top 5 (probably like 6th and 8th though).

 

I for some reason didn’t even consider the simple release at midnight on streaming services. I just assumed because I care a lot about this it would be a premiere at 2pm haha

LETS GOOOOOO

 

GREAT EXPECTATIONS.

 

Great Expectations (12)

The Backseat (15)

Almost time to close it!

 

The Backseat

 

So glad Backseat is winning, Great Expectations is good, but I think its probably the most over rated Gaslight song

 

Agreed

 

Alright folks, it's 12pm EST and at a score of 16 to 12, the winner of The Gaslight Anthem Bracket Challenge is


THE BACKSEAT!

Thanks to all of you for participating. Lots of upsets and great conversations. It was a pleasure getting to moderate it. Thanks again for being so cool and civil throughout. Can't wait to discuss the new Fallon song tomorrow.

 

Sham.

 

Just realized he has a clip of the new song on his IG story. He yells. It sounds fucking awesome.

 

The only fitting victor.

 

Still think it's a shame that Get Hurt was knocked out round 1. Top 5 Gaslight song

 

Just checked it. Can confirm it sounds great and I'm super hyped

 

Love that percussion

 

So since the bracket is over, I wanna pose another scenario to you all: what would be your utopian Gaslight Anthem set look like? Excluding the sets we've seen that we discussed a couple weeks ago, what would you want to see them play? Your dream setlist has to work within the confines of a 20-song main set, and a 5-song encore.

 

I like the song a lot. Really liking the Ted Hutt production again and the upbeat feel of it.

 

Main set:



Encore:
Having a Party (Sam Cooke cover)
She Loves You
National Anthem
The Backseat

 

New song is up on Apple Music.

 

It's awesome. This guy is seemingly unstoppable.

 

New song is a jam! The scream part at the beginning was very unexpected and jarring five minutes after waking up haha
