Sister site WatchMojo.com (fresh off a redesign) had the chance to interview New Jersey band The Gaslight Anthem. Check it out:
Hailing from New Brunswick, New Jersey, the Gaslight Anthem has been described as Bruce Springsteen singing for a Cure cover band, with a tinge more aggression. But let’s face it: they’re a flat-out rockin’ band. Embracing their Jersey Shore influences, Gaslight’s driving punk sound is infused with lyrics for the working man. In this video, WatchMojo.com chats with Alex R. and Benny from the band. For more information, click Here.
More than just the words on the walls, Hard Rock International has remained true to its motto – “LOVE ALL” by continuing its pledge to serve others – since the company’s founding in 1971. Hard Rock is proud to announce the launch of The 2008 Global “Imagine There’s No Hunger” campaign to benefit WHY, a nonprofit organization that finds innovative solutions to hunger and poverty around the Globe. Hard Rock’s SERVE3 benefit compilation features new, never-before-released or rare tracks by a unique blend of major multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning and acclaimed recording artists, including Bruce Springsteen, Joss Stone, Avril Lavigne, Starsailor, My Morning Jacket and more. Setting the foundation for “Imagine There’s No Hunger,” artist and musician Yoko Ono has graciously donated her late husband John Lennon’s inspirational song “Give Peace A Chance.” With the exception of this classic, the songs on SERVE3 are new, electric or acoustic, and reflect the generosity of the artists that donated them to the project on behalf of serving those in need. SERVE3 will be available at select Hard Rock locations around the world and www.hardrock.com beginning November 4, 2008, with downloads available at digital retailers.
