The post The Gaslight Anthem Return with Comeback Single “Positive Charge”: Stream appeared first on Consequence.

The Gaslight Anthem have returned with a new single, “Positive Charge,” their first new music in almost a decade. Stream the song below.

Grounded by a beefy, guitar-driven rhythm bed, the melodies of vocalist Brian Fallon lift “Positive Charge” to a soaring height, while its candid lyricism hits with a sense of intimacy. “‘Where did you go?’/ I would say that to myself often/ Like I was dressing up for a coffin/ To lie down in,” the song begins — when the climax arrives, the refrain “I need a spark/ I need a positive charge/ Plug it into my veins/ Make me love this life again” rings of rejuvenation.

“‘Positive Charge’ began as a message of joy to ourselves and to our audience,” Fallon explained in a statement. “The central theme is about looking at the things you’ve come through, and feeling like you want to go ahead with an open heart toward the future, believing that the best years are not behind any of us and the good we have is worth something.”

Their first new music since 2014’s Get Hurt, the single is also the first release on Gaslight Anthem’s own Rich Mahogany Recordings label, distributed via Thirty Tigers. Beyond getting back into recording, the band went on a reunion tour last year, and has announced additional dates for their ongoing 2023 tour. Check out their full list of upcoming stops below.
