New Jersey rockers the Gaslight Anthem are gearing up to release Get Hurt next month. We've already heard its title track, and now we get another taste with "Stay Vicious."

Those expecting more of the Gaslight Anthem's punk-inflected pop songs might be taken by surprise, as the song's an alt-rock jam through and through. Opening with muddy guitars and bizarre, effects-laden vocals, it kicks off as an aggro post-grunge stomper before cutting to a gentle chorus that shares more in common with the National.

Listen to "Stay Vicious" below. Get Hurt arrives August 12 through Island.
