A Very Brief Review of The Hold Steady's "Heaven is Whenever"



I enjoy this new album quite a bit, but (for what it's worth) it more than anything just makes me want to listen to their previous four.

Grade: B -

I was going to ask you about it. I agree, but I feel like it's going to grown on me. I'm taking it on my drive home from Utah - I'll probably have a more definitive feeling either way after taking it on the road.

Definitely a "Grow Factor" yes yes, but doesn't feel as captivating without characters to follow and latch onto, keyboards to groove and breakdown with, and some third thing because every good list has three specific items.
