The Hold Steady announce new album 'The Price Of Progress'

Following on from the release of their highly-praised 2021 LP 'Open Door Policy', The Hold Steady have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving in the coming months.

The new full-length 'The Price Of Progress' will become the band's ninth record to date, is being previewed by the new lead single 'Sideways Skull', and is set to be released on the 31st March via their own Positive Jams label.

Speaking about the new offering, frontman Craig Finn said, “Sideways Skull is a rocking song about rock and rollers. In this case, they’ve been taken out of the game for a bit of rest, but still keep their dreams alive as they discuss past glories. We loved the big sound of this when Tad Kubler brought it into the band, and the studio performance of it felt especially joyful. We’re happy to put this forth as a first look at The Price of Progress, and the album’s title even comes from this song.”
