Riding on the news of their new album Get Hurt (due out August 19 via Island Records), The Gaslight Anthem have released their first single since 2012’s Handwritten. The song, titled “Rollin’ And Tumblin,'” is the first taste we get of the new record and it’s pretty damn good, especially considering its change in sound. Give it a listen after the jump.

The band’s frontman, Brian Fallon, recently spoke with Rolling Stone about the new album. Apparently he went back and studied any band that had changed over the years. “The Stones, the Beatles, U2, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, all those bands — I was looking at any band that was one thing and then became something else,” he said. “I wanted to figure out how far you can go without pissing people off.”
