bring it on!  

i so want one of them test pressings

So excited! I hope one thing stays the same as last year and they send out the digital version to everyone first. That way if the vinyl is slow getting out again, we'll still have the digital.

Also I believe this is from a guy who works at infinitemerch/the club
From Instagram. Same pic etc.

The Gaslight Anthem 2nd annual 45rpm club 7" test pressings have arrived!!!! The actual finished 7"S that are only available to people in the fan club will be here at the end of January to start shipping out immediately!!! The first run will be on colored vinyl but shhhhh!!! It's a secret!!!!

So looks likes February is when majority of people will get it. If the "end of January" date is correct. And "first run" does this mean multiple presses? Feel bad for collectors/completionist will have to look on ebay. Unless they offer a way to buy the other presses

You never know. You may get a different version of Bring It On but I wouldn't get your hopes up, I'd doubt it ;-)

Do we already know which songs this will be and if we may get another new "diamond" like halloween?

hmm  if there are multiple pressings, does that mean everyone gets a colored one first, then another one is made available for club members to buy? for everyone to buy? or are the colored ones only going to people who were members since day 1? or something like that, or just the first 500 that go out. There's a lot of possible meanings here.

@Hanswurst, I think there's supposed to be at least 1 new song involved. I'm pretty sure that's the deal they promised with this thing.

I was thinking about joining the fan club but can anyone tell me what are the two exclusive downloadable tracks are that you get for signing up?

This is really good news! I hope they get to ship it in January as expected

They haven't announced what they are specifically yet if that's what you're asking. Last year it was one new song and an acoustic version of a previously released song, so I imagine this year will be the same.

Well it seems by the test pressing that this all on track so far.

I am really excited to hear/get mine, just hope infinite merch up their game from last year.

WHere did you hear about the test pressing? I haven't gotten any information about this yet

There hasn't been any info released yet. But apparently the photo at the top of the page is of the test pressings for this years release.

Bumping up this topic/ adding it here. thanks goes to matkins for posting it.

Thanks! I messed up and posted in the wrong section. I'm sorry!

omg tom waits cover

Going out on a limb here but maybe this is a new song on the Bside. I searched like crazy and can't seem to find anything with that for a title fragment. Itll be great to get a GLA minty fresh new song if this is the case.

Damn well better be! haha. We're promised a new song every year for the fanclub. If it was ever two covers I'd feel ripped off. I kind of like that the song wasn't public way ahead of time like Halloween was last time. Makes for more of a surprise.
