read an article by Rob Sheffield of R Stone, he recommended this band. They are great. A rock band that mentions Mass, that's different. Always something new in rock, true, it's not dead.
one of the great lyrics of the past ten years or so: "She was limping left on broken heels/And she said father 'can I tell your congregation how a resurrection really feels"
Seen them four times now. Each time is a great experience. Rarely do I see a band with that much enthusiasm. If you have a chance, see a show. Closest thing to a religious experience I've seen at a show.

Is Craig's guitar in the mix at all?

The part where he slurs out "Hallelujah was a sexy mess" is the funniest thing ever.
Best band in the world.

They remind me a little of early Counting Crows, with the confessional lyrics, and a kickass sound.

I was introduced to the hold steady my senior year by my painting teacher. This is one of the best songs I've ever heard.

lucky man (or woman), I never had a teacher bring me any excellent music in life - keep in contact with that one.

I just discovered these guys about a month ago. Anybody that believes rock is dead has never listened to The Hold Steady.
