The Hold Steady is back today (Jan. 4) with a rocking new single, “Sideways Skull,” ahead of the March 31 release of its next album, The Price of Progress. The 10-track project will come out on the band’s own Positive Jams label and arrives roughly in tandem with the Hold Steady’s 20th anniversary.
“Sideways Skull” was played a handful of times at the band’s 2022 shows, including twice during its annual Brooklyn Bowl residency late last year. As for The Price of Progress, it was produced by Bonnie Light Horseman’s Josh Kaufman, who also worked on the Hold Steady’s 2021 album Open Door Policy.
