Free Music Review: great album
Hit: 5 Stars
This was one of the best rock albums of the last few years. The lyrics are stellar and thoughtful, the music is just true progressive rock and roll.
Boys and Girls in America Poster
Craig Finn loves books and bars. It's not just that he pinched the title of he Hold Steady's third album from the ultimate manual for boozehounds, Jack Kerouac's "On the Road" ("Boys and Girls in America have such a sad time together"), but that every leery line of every song is crammed with the wayward poetry and passion of someone who is more familiar with the bottom of a whiskey glass than the sun. Thanks to his raucous Brooklyn band, his music--louder than its predecessors this time, with a few more ballads--also happens to make a great soundtrack for an all-night bender where broken-hearts and broken bottles become one. --Aidin VaziriON TOUR 10/21 - 11/19

UK Exclusive 2 CD reissue features a bonus disc of an eight track live performance recorded Fingerprints Record store in 2007! New York's bar band extraordinaire is back with a brand new album, their most rocking to date! The Australian Edition includes a chunky helping of bonus track action - 4 previously unreleased songs, including 3 cracking new tunes recorded at the album sessions, and a cover of the Violent Femmes' classic "American Music". This album from The Hold Steady, and unquestionably their best to date; stronger songs, bigger production, Craig Finn sings(!) and the band is so unbelievably smoking, that no metaphor could possibly do them justice! Produced by Jon Agnello (Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., The Breeders, Mark Lanegan, Son Volt), the guitars are huge, the piano grand, bass pounding, drums cracking, brass belting. it's one of the most crankable rock records of the year! Vagrant. 2007.
