The Hold Steady have been really pampering us lately, having offered two three new songs off their new album “Heaven is Whenever” for streaming, as of today. Hopefully they can show other bands a lesson on how proper previewing should be made.
The latest track upped for sampling is the nostalgic anthem “Weekenders”, a massive song. Really, the scale of the sound is immense! Definitely like it more than “Hurricane J” or “Rock Problems”. All I can say right now is … bring on May 4th, baby. [via MTV buzzworthy blog]
The Hold Steady start their spring/summer tour in support of Heaven is Whenever tonight in upstate NY.
