De paso he recuperado un poco el anterior que ni me acordaba de él y recuerdo que en su momento también me gustó. Al final lo de "Heaven Is Whenever" fue un tropiezo. Menos mal que Franz Nicolay volvió al grupo.

Ojalá todos los tropiezos fueran así.

Hey everyone!

2020 has been a, well, er, interesting year. Imagining The Weekender in London being the last time we’d all be together wasn’t the way anyone planned. But we’re excited to be able to play for you later this week with Massive Nights 2020 via the magic of live-streaming.

What we’re possibly more excited about is ending 2020 by bringing you new music and starting off 2021 with a brand new album!

OPEN DOOR POLICY is our 8th studio album and will be released on February 19, 2021 via our own label, Positive Jams, in association with Thirty Tigers. You can pre-order it here! http://shop.theholdsteady.net

We recorded OPEN DOOR POLICY in two different sessions in the back half of 2019. Once again we teamed with producer Josh Kaufman and engineer Dan Goodwin, this time at the Clubhouse studio in upstate NY. Our intention was to create an album that worked as a grand piece, rather than a collection of songs. 2019 was an active year for The Hold Steady — our writing was consistent, and new songs were coming in pretty regularly. The recording process was creative, open and fun.

We were pretty much done with the record by the time we played a few of the new songs in London the first week of March 2020, as the unease of the pandemic was setting in. Not long after we got back from London, NYC shut down and we began to see our 2020 shows postponed. Over the next months, it became obvious that timing this album’s release to specific weekend celebrations wouldn’t be a possibility in the near future. But we were still excited to share it.

The songs on OPEN DOOR POLICY are about power, wealth, & mental health. They're about technology, occupation, consumerism, freedom, fandom and escape. And although the album was written and recorded in 2019, the themes of this record seem to be underscored and highlighted by this year of virus and quarantine. Big thanks to Dave McLaughlin for his photo on the album cover, which appears above.

“Family Farm” is the first song from the album we’re sharing. It originated from a demo Tad brought in, with Franz adding a classic THS bridge. Our friends Stuart Bogie and Jordan McLean came in with the horns. The song even includes a mention of the great Eddie Van Halen solo “Eruption”, an unintended tribute to a great rock hero in light of his recent passing. Listen here! https://bit.ly/37pKQg5

You can pre-order OPEN DOOR POLICY on limited edition colored vinyl (blue!), standard vinyl, and limited edition CD.

Of course we have lots of other new OPEN DOOR POLICY goodies to order with the music at The Hold Steady online shops: t-shirts, infant clothing, winter hats and anything you may have missed.

To celebrate the new album and Massive Nights 2020, we're running a sale in The Hold Steady online shops.

For domestic buyers, you will receive a 10% discount for any purchase over $50; 15% for any purchase over $75; and 20% for any purchase over $100. No code is necessary for domestic buyers.

Thanks for listening. Thanks for understanding. We're really glad that you're here.

Stay Positive!

The Hold Steady is 20 years old! Time flies when you’re having fun, but it’s still hard to believe that 2023 makes two decades of THS. Of course, we think growing out of our teenage years is reason to throw a party or two - this year will be full of Hold Steady celebrations to honor the music, positivity, and incredible community that have made the last twenty years so amazing.

First off, we are releasing our 9th studio album The Price of Progress on March 31, 2023 via Positive Jams/Thirty Tigers. Produced by Josh Kaufman and recorded over the past year, this record features 10 new THS songs, some of which we’ve been playing live in recent shows.

You can pre-order now, as well as check out “Sideways Skull”, the first song released from the album. The online store features all music formats (Digital, CD, Vinyl) and some brand new The Price Of Progress themed merch.

For you vinyl fans, we've got an exclusive, limited edition translucent green vinyl available only at https://theholdsteady.net along with standard vinyl.
There are three (3) additional vinyl colors available at retail only:
a) metallic gold (independent retail exclusive)
b) metallic silver (Vinyl Me Please exclusive)
c) white (Rough Trade exclusive).

We are really proud of the record and excited for you to hear it. A great way to start year twenty!

We’ll be playing shows throughout 2023 to celebrate as well, including a special 20 year show at the Music Hall of Williamsburg on January 28. This was the site of the former North Six venue, where we played our first ever show in 2003, opening for our friend Steve Koester. We’ve invited Steve’s band Two Dark Birds to open this show, to put a nice bow on the twenty year circle. We’ll be digging up some old songs for this one, as well as playing jams from throughout the ever growing catalog. More on that later.

We are very excited to share THE PRICE OF PROGRESS with you and begin the next 20 years together.

Thanks for listening. Thanks for understanding.
 Stay Positive.

Yo creo que todos los que tengo (desde el primero hasta Teeth Dreams) son francamente notables, no veo esos dos necesariamente por encima del resto.

Otros años me da que es lo que han hecho. Londres y localidades cercanas.

Aunque tal vez con la historia aniversario/nuevo disco se saquen antes o después alguna fecha más de la manga (aunque sea en festis). También es cierto que cada vez giran y se mueven menos, así que no sé yo.
