Handwritten


I love love love the album cover. It's simple and classy. If I'm not wrong, it looks like one of those record covers that came out of the 50s and 60s where you had the band members' names on it. It makes a strong statement of where the band is at this crossroads of their career. Handwritten will be Gaslight's debut on a major label. This will be their breakthrough album. Before long they'll move from playing Webster Hall to Madison Square Garden. They deserve all the attention they can get, cause they're one of the best bands of any genre out there right now. In the immortal words of Bruce, "it was bye bye New Jersey, I was airborne..."

P.S. Here's a recent, excellent interview with Brian [link]. This fella just gained another huge ounce of respect from me. And here's the full webcast stream of the band's performance in Brooklyn the other night [link].
