This 2010 album marks an extraordinary leap forward for The Gaslight Anthem, revealing a triumphant Rock 'n' Roll band honed by two years of nearly non-stop touring. Singer/guitarist Brian Fallon's lyrical approach has grown more personal and introspective, his raw throated vocals stronger and more resonant against the band's boundless dynamic force. American Slang is a classic Rock 'n' Roll album that will be a benchmark for other bands to measure themselves against and try to mimic for generations to come.
