We're pleased to announce that we
have just signed with Mercury Records (that's Mercury/Island-Def Jam Records
for North America and Mercury Records UK for the rest of the world). We
have had a great run with the folks at Side One Dummy Records, they have
been really terrific to work with, and they will always be our dear friends.
We in the band felt that this was the best time to make a move to support
our goals as a band, and we've met some really earnest and dedicated folks
at Mercury US and UK. We're hard at work writing songs now for what
we feel is going to be the best record we've ever made! Thanks to everyone
for your support and we look forward to seeing you in 2012!
Thanks!

one of the
top 10 best albums of 2010 (Classic Rock magazine)
American Slang
(Uncut magazine)
"The Gaslight Anthem have created
the all-American album that travels by keeping its subject matter to that
which everyone can relate to: the pain of a broken heart, salvation from
the radio and love by the lights of the bar. The record is a perfect marriage
of expert storytelling, superb musicianship and classic melodies."
Big Cheese
magazine (June 2010)

This
was the sound of the very last gang in town. As heard
by my wild young heart, like directions on a cold dark night, Sayin',
'Let it out, let it out, let it out, you're doin' all right.' And
I heard it in his chain gang soul. It wasn't
just the same sad song. Sayin',
'Let it out, let it out, let it out, you're doing all right.' And
I'm doing all right, are you doin' all right? And
I carried these songs like a comfort wherever I'd go.
(The
Gaslight Anthem, from 'I'da Called You Woody, Joe')
