heavyheavylowlow Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 The Gaslight Anthem's The '59 Sound is this weeks free iTunes single of the week. I assume that news itself is more important than the actual song being free to most of you considering about 90% of VC members seem to own the album like 6 times. Anywho, after finally hearing them, I don't get it, I really don't see what's so special, I mean, they're certainly not shit or anything, but I don't get the wow factor.

scotterson Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 if this is the only song youve heard i would check out a few more before discarding them. while i do like this song, it (in my opinion) is definitely not one of their better songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 It took me awhile to get into them. I totally didn't "get it" either at first, but after a few listens, it started to stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theambulancereview Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I really think Senor and The Queen is a good group of songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duff Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 hype can either make or break a band, i know a lot of people that immediately write off a band based solely on the hype, or even refuse to give the band a listen because of the hype. i used to be one of those people. if people could get past the hype that a lot of bands generate and actually take the time to listen to an album start to finish before generating an opinion it would benefit everyone.

adamlikesmusic Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I really think Senor and The Queen is a good group of songs. Judging by recordings as a whole, I'd say Senor & The Queen is my favorite. Not a song on it I don't like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlikesmusic Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Edit - My iTunes free single is some bitch named "Lenka". They don't even appear in the "free" column. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you, I can listen to this 4 song ep on repeat for days and not get tired of it. there's a few songs i skip on the other albums.

chaps Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Listen to the album as a whole on vinyl. The mp3's of this record don't do it justice. Its way over compressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaps Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I ment to say that compression on the mastering of the MP3s was over compressed. Not the actual files. That might have something to do with it to though. idk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
