Hold Steady Reveal New LP

Our little Vagrant friends the Hold Steady will release their first album, Boys and Girls in America, October 3 on the emo powerhouse. Judging by the album's name, it looks as if they're fitting right in over there!

The follow-up to last year's Frenchkiss release Separation Sunday was produced by John Agnello (Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., Bob Dylan), tracked at Hoboken's Water Music, overdubbed at Williamsburg's Atomic Records, and mixed at NYC's Magic Shop. Extensive!

We're listening to the album right now. It's pretty great.

Tracklist:

01 Stuck Between Stations
02 Chips Ahoy!
03 Hot Soft Light
04 Same Kooks
05 First Night
