Today The Gaslight Anthem released a preview of “45,” the first glimpse at their upcoming album Handwritten. Their album will be their major-label debut, and is due out July 24, 2012. The track is replete with all of the hallmarks of a Gaslight jam and holds nothing back. As we’ve come to expect from our New Jersey darlings, while the track is instantly recognizable as to it’s penmanship, it’s style hints at the subtle shifts in style the boys have also carried as a trademark from album to album.

Preorder is available to download on May 8th from amazon and iTunes.
