The Gaslight Anthem deliver She Loves You like a barroom shout.

Hey Hey My My turns The Next Bar into the kind of song.
The Mountains & The Trees turn More & More & More into the kind of song.
Teen Daze turns “Let’s Fall Asleep Together” into the kind of song.
Guitars shimmer up front and the drums stay brushed and steady.
Banjo plucks snap forward with dry wood grain.
Alexa Wilding lands Black Diamond Day like a secret hit single.
The mix leaves room for each part to breathe.
Guitars open in a clean rush, then the rhythm section snaps into place.
The hook is sharp and the mood is bruised.
My favorite Holiday songs from the past year.

Holiday music is everywhere, but this cut.
Between work deadlines and blinking lights.
The cut feels newly essential, the kind of cool-weather track.
Elvis Presley and “Blue Christmas” land like a fresh holiday single.
For a cold commute and a desk-side coffee.
Thurl Ravenscroft and Boris Karloff turn You're A Mean One, Mr.
