The Hold Steady: "Record 4 In the Can"



The major news outlets, including NLtS, seem to have passed over this little tidbit. The Hold Steady posted on their official site February 2nd that their 4th album is "In the Can". The post is preceded by images of recording and mixing and is accompanied by a number of photos of band members, technicians, and Les Paul (the man, not the guitar) in a celebratory mood. Imagine that party. THS managed not to put out a record last year, snapping their streak of one album per year started with 2004's Almost Killed Me and ending with 2006 AOTY Boys and Girls in America. There's no release date yet being publicised, but expect Album 4 this year some time and expect it to join Vampire Weekend and Heretic Pride in discussions for Album of the Year.

We hope you continue to turn to NLtS for your Hold Steady news.
