The Gaslight Anthem Hurting For A New Tour

Get Hurt was released in August, marking The Gaslight Anthem’s fifth studio album.

New York Times describes the LP as “the band’s first true shift in perspective. … The music on Get Hurt is broader and more muscular.”

In Rolling Stone’s review, the magazine writes, “It’s always been there under the New Jersey grit, but this band fully unleashes its inner Who on its fifth studio album.” RS adds, “Get Hurt is a fresh, anthemic striving.”

Frontman Brian Fallon says the band balanced its desire for growth with staying true to its roots.  

“It wasn’t exactly clear when we started what we were going to do,” Fallon said. “We just knew we had to change it up in order to maintain being a relevant band to ourselves. There really wasn’t anything else to say or do on those avenues that we had already walked on.”

Fallon adds, “You can never lose who you are. No matter how much you change, you can never lose that core of what makes you you. If you’re honest with yourself, that core remains. You don’t find yourself lost in some genre you have no business being in – you create your own.”

The Gaslight Anthem recently unveiled the video for the single “1,000 Years,” which was filmed earlier this year at First Avenue in Minneapolis.
