See I was thinking the opposite. If that's a lyric, I'm waiting for the Springsteen comparison's to increase, which would be a step backwards. Honestly though, this is not enough of anything for me to really form an opinion. I've got my fingers crossed for 90 second clips like we heard in the "making of handwritten" video that got out before that album. EDIT: Not that that lyric could only be considered Springsteen-y, I can think of several others right off the top of my head, but you know people and their love of making this comparison (the hypocrite says as she makes the comparison herself). | |

| I'm hoping that's a lyric as well. Incidentally, Handwritten (the song) got even better for me when I chose to ignore the "story of a record" backstory that the video presents and decided it was about a soldier in the heat of battle writing back home to his sweetheart. | |

Just re-read the lyrics with that in mind and you're absolutely right. Makes it way better. (I always thought the "story of a record" thing was kind of cheesy.) | |

http://instagram.com/p/mRKn4nxZo2/ Hmm, it's obviously not great quality audio but I'm not digging that super-80s chorus/flanger effect on the guitars. Makes it sound like Brian's going to be donning a bleach-blonde wig and try to fit into David Lee Roth's leopard pants. | |

agree, I listened to that last night about 10 times, sounds amazing. seems like a fresh new sound to me. I'm really excited for the new album - Handwritten just hasn't stuck with me and I am hoping some time off to step away a little and breathe was the best thing they could have used before heading to the studio. | |

| I am in no way dissing what i hear but I don't think this sounds different, it still sounds like Gaslight to me with the similar tempo/chord selection but with different effects on the guitar, like Jack said 80s style. The clip is great don't get me wrong, I think after hearing the sounds they were playing around with in earlier studio clips though, i expected quite a shift from the usual sound. I love the fact you can hear the progression on each album. I am not going to judge anything until we hear a new song in full. I think Alex R brings so much the more he is allowed to influence the sound. Got to say I am more excited for this album than any album i can remember.....oh and the tours | |

Yea this is true but I'm kinda hoping Brian takes a "screw it, let em talk" approach and just tries to write the best songs he can. There's tons of artists that do storytelling songs that don't get called Bruce ripoffs (Jason Isbell's one of the better ones that comes to mind). As long as the song isn't about a soldier that "quits the US army" and then goes to work by the boardwalk or in a traveling carnival or something. | |

Is it bad that I would love to hear Brian write a song with exactly that same story? Although I liked Gaslight most when they were the freewheelin' happy-go-lucky guys from Jersey, so that makes sense. | |

See I was thinking the opposite. If that's a lyric, I'm waiting for the Springsteen comparison's to increase, which would be a step backwards. My first thought after reading that (possible) lyric was "Born In The USA" (the track, not the album). But that's a million miles from being a bad thing. People will jump on it as a Springsteen link, but so what? You'll know what it means to you when the record comes out. | |

Wasn't the point. The Springsteen comparison will gain momentum again. Personally, I hope that's not a lyric, because on it's own, it's weak. | |

Personally, I hope that's not a lyric, because on it's own, it's weak. it's 6 words with 0 context. I could cherrypick six words of Bob Dylan songs and say they're "weak lyrics". | |

Personally, I hope that's not a lyric, because on it's own, it's weak. it's 6 words with 0 context. I could cherrypick six words of Bob Dylan songs and say they're "weak lyrics". I think the conclusion here is this potential lyric is by no means enough to go on and form any sort of conclusion, neither are any of the audio clips so far. I only offered up the springsteen comment because if we're gonna take a teeny tiny bit of material and draw conclusions from it, that's where my brain headed. Not because I think it's too springsteen-y, but because I think it's close enough that other people will immediately point there. About the whole story telling thing. To be honest, I'd prefer he expand on his current style than get too into the story telling. If I wanna hear a story, I'll listen to Dylan, or Bruce, etc. Brian does repeat the same topics a lot, but he managed to do that for 4 albums, an EP, and a number of additional songs, and STILL the songs are great. If he can branch out a bit topic-wise (which he already started to) then I can only imagine how great his writing would get! | |

| Interesting. I think there are two options: Either Brian can only write great songs when they're infused with the romantic and deeply personal descriptive lyrics which drive their typical instrumentation, OR they can do other stuff too.
Whatever happens on this album, I believe and hope that they'll break through that wall and write something awesome and truly distinct from their other work.

| The melody looks cool but I really, really don't like the way it sounds. Anyway it's too hard to have an idea with 10 secondes of music... | |

Right...wait, isn't that what I said? Doesn't "on it's own" mean 0 context? But while we're on the topic, if the rest of the lyrics do their job, the listener should probably know that today is the day the character quit the army. So it's probably going to be a weak line. *scratches chin and puts nose in the air*
