The triumphant track is the band’s first new music release in nine years. Their last album, ‘Get Hurt’, was released back in 2014, reaching No.4 on both the US and UK charts.

Check out the official video for ‘Positive Charge’ below:

On the new song, lead singer Brian Fallon says “Positive Charge began as a message of joy to ourselves and to our audience.  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.”

The Gaslight Anthem announced last year that they were returning to work full time on the band and are currently writing their sixth studio album.

‘Positive Charge’ arrives ahead of the band’s run of US summer tour dates, including an appearance at Four Chord festival and a huge hometown show supporting The Misfits.
