Band of Horses, like the Hold Steady, seem to release a new song online every few days. We’ve heard “Compliments” and “Laredo” so far, and “Factory” is a step up from both, though it would probably be too sleepy without the swells of strings driving the chorus. New favorite li...

The Hold Steady’s arrived at an interesting moment in the progression of their smart-guy bar rock. As we’ve mentioned, album five is the first since the departure of Franz Nicolay, the one member you’d assume was a rock star if you passed the guys on the street. Tad Kubler is taking care of the keyboards in [...]

We saw the Franz-less Hold Steady play “Barely Breathing” at their tour kick-off show in Ardsley. Craig Finn looked like he was having a great time, but it was hard to hear him singing over the video crackle.
