Digging this! They have a real Replacements/Goo Goo Dolls sound.

Wow! Their earlier stuff was not anywhere near this much of a Replacements sound.

A good one djcraig, something a bit different from the typical indie pop I've been running into of late.

[i]"Sounds Like: Like New Jersey's prodigal son, New Brunswick's the Gaslight Anthem sound like a punked-out, supercharged version of early Bruce combined with the Replacements' angst and the Hold Steady's wit." [/i]

This CD is OUTSTANDING! Not much of a Springsteen fan and a huge Replacements fan and that review is so dead-on save The Hold Steady, who couldn't hold The Gaslight Anthems jock strap. Highly recommended if you are looking for a solid rock record. My Morning Jacket is nowhere close. This kicks ass.
