The Hold Steady: Your little hoodrat band
Man, some days there just ain't a better band for me.
Absolutely can't beat Separation Sunday and Boys and Girls in America but enough gems on all other records.
New one: Slow burn and really growing on me.
Also really been enjoying Crag Finn's recent solo efforts.
Holed up in Pandemic world - I'd kill for a drunken Hold Steady show.

These are guys that I was really into at first but I've fully dropped off on over the last few years. I should probs revisit.

Its the perfet combination of his last two solo records but with added love from the band. Its definitely different but feels like a band effort and a nice addition.LetMeSleep wrote:Been hit and miss since Heaven. Cued up their Newie.

Naming your salvation-seeking iterant sex worker main character Holly, short for Hallelujah, is some peak dumb guy shit, and that album was top five of the year for Pitchfork.

Every time I see the singer of The Hold Steady, I think of Jorge.
