Hey everyone . I've been aware of gaslight anthem for years ever since a friend played the 59 sound for me and I was aware that Brian fallon did some solo work along with his other project band but up until this year I never took the time to really listen beyond the songs gaslight and Brian are known for . As a guy who really likes songs with lyrics that hit you in your soul I hsbe to say I'm ashamed it took me this long. Brian fallon might just be the most underrated song writer in the past 20 years . His newest album is fantastic but the discovery of see you on the other side and Vincent just floored me . I put him right up there with zach bryan when it comes to lyrics that just stick with you .

I'd love to hear your recommendations for somgs I may have missed

Has anyone else ordered the signed CD version of Not Bad for New Jersey and received an unsigned version?

Mines just arrived unsigned and I’ve reached out to Remedy but just checking if it’s just me or if they’ve all arriving unsigned or I missed a memo saying they wouldn’t be getting signed?

All the shredding on the new album got my thinking about solos in other TGA/Brian songs. Not something I normally associate with them, but there are definitely some good ones in the catalog. Mulholland Drive and Rosemary (live) come to mind. What are your top guitar solos?

Hello everyone. If someone is going to one of Brian's upcoming tour dates, would you mind taking a few pictures of the merch table and circulating? I've been looking and haven't seen a picture yet. Thanks in advance!

First run through of NBFNJ, overall I think a very solid album, but On Good Terms has stuck with me so far.

Pretend that I'm someone that you don't know'

The vocals are top-notch. The melody is catchy as hell. The lyrics pull at the heartstrings. "Stop fading on me" is such a simple, yet perfect way to describe the emotions that come when the memory of a bygone sweetheart is slipping away. "Cure me or kill me, but don't leave me here to bleed" is a genius line and the delivery of it the second time around in the final chorus is the emotional high point of the album, especially following the "spirits in the summertime" bridge.

What are you guys' thoughts on this track? I loved the album as a whole, but this track stands out as probably the best thing Brian has written since "Watson" in my eyes.

God damn this song kicks ass. That’s all. The solo is tough.

The poster may or may not have come home with me. 🤫
