The Gaslight Anthem are currently hard at work on their sophomore
full-length, but to tide fans over we're excited to announce the
release of this four-song EP, Seņor and the Queen. Recorded during a
rare few days off in Austin, Texas, last year, the EP shows the progression
the band have made in the last year from literally every waking moment on
the road.
The result is a collection of songs that are remarkably varied, with the
only unifying characteristic being their timelessness and authenticity.
The opener "Seņor and the Queen" is an anthemic punk track that's
reminiscent of gritty acts like Leatherface and Hot Water Music; "Wherefore
Are Thou, Elvis?" shows the band turning down the distortion and bearing
their souls on two-inch tape in a way that would make their hometown hero
Bruce Springsteen proud; "Say I Wont (Recognize)" is an upbeat rocker that
could get even the most cynical critic out of his barstool and onto the
dance floor; and "Blue Jeans & White T-Shirts" is a soulful country-tinged
ballad that's so familiar-sounding it's difficult to believe that it isn't
a cover.
