New Jersey’s finest – The Gaslight Anthem, release their highly anticipated new album ‘American Slang’ on June 14^th.

Produced by Ted Hutt (who produced the band’s acclaimed last release ‘The ’59 Sound’), ‘American Slang’ heralds a dramatic leap forward for The Gaslight Anthem.  Tracks such as “Bring It On,” “Orphans” and “Stay Lucky” bristle and burn with the spirit of soul and the artistic adventurousness and impressive confidence of band that has come into its own and found its own voice.

2009 was a monumental year for The Gaslight Anthem.  The band toured the world in support of their acclaimed album ‘The ’59 Sound’ and were featured performers at major festivals including Coachella, Rock Am Ring, Glastonbury, Pinkpop, Lollapalooza, Reading and Leeds, Hyde Park Calling, Fuji Rock, Hurricane, Gurten and Roskilde.
