Why people love The Hold Steady so much: Finn is a great lyricist, a raconteur in the old mould, and there's a barreling, analogue warmth to their music that's blissfully at odds with the compression-heavy world of modern rock production.

Following the release of 2008's critically acclaimed last album 'Stay Positive', which gave the band their highest Billboard chart position to date, The Hold Steady have been touring relentlessly, playing to some of their biggest audiences to date. Lauded for the scope, depth, truth and heart they bring to chronicling the American rock myth, The Hold Steady present 'Heaven is Whenever'.

Recorded in several smaller sessions spread out over a long period of time, the songs on 'Heaven is Whenever' received the benefit of being tested on the band's recent tours. As Finn says this allowed them to "see what was working and what wasn't. I believe this record benefits from us working at a more deliberate pace."
