The Gaslight Anthem - Handwritten - International Version 專輯

HANDWRITTEN is the fourth album from this American rock outfit band. The band returns to the raw sound found on second release ‘59 Sound here, which earned them praise from various music critics, including Pitchfork and eMusic. Frontman Brian Fallon began working on the album in 2010, while also working on his side-project The Horrible Crowes, and eventually recorded Handwritten in 2012 at a Nashville studio. First single from the record “45” was named as BBC Radio 1 presenter Zane Lowe’s Hottest Record in the World.

HANDWRITTEN is the most committed, affecting and compelling album of The Gaslight Anthem's career to date. Introduced by muscular lead-off single 45, which received its world premiere on BBC Radio 1 as Zane Lowe's Hottest Record In The World on April 30, it finds the Jersey boys in inspired form, decanting '60's soul, '70's stadium rock, '80s hardcore and '90's grunge into eleven white-knuckle, blue-collar everyman anthems. Brian Fallon likens its incandescent electrical storms to "Tom Petty songs [being] played by Pearl Jam". Put more simply, it's a supercharged American rock 'n' roll classic!

The electricity in the recordings is tangible and after years paying their dues in the punk rock underground, their major label debut is assuredly the work of a young band who knows their time is now.
