The Suburbs is their best album and I won't be swayed

If she says we partied, then I'm pretty sure we partied. I really don't remember. I remember we departed from our bodies.

The only song I know from them is "No Planes Go" and only because it was in a Transworld skateboard video.

Funeral is their best but suburbs is a close second

She took pity on me, horizontally, but most likely because of my band

I can never decide between Funeral and Neon Bible as my favorite, but after that, it becomes pretty easy to just rank them chronologically. The first three are absolutely tremendous, and then the other two have a couple great tracks a piece.

What happened to The Hold Steady? I don't think I've heard anything from them in a decade, any decent albums in that time?

Pretty sure they're still putting out music. I hear it (or Craig Finn) a good amount on the Current. I'm not super familiar with them though.

They basically went on hiatus, but finally released a new album last year.

In the meanwhile Craig Finn started a solo career which is actually really good.

Funeral > Suburbs > Neon Bible > Reflektor >>>>>>>> Everything Now

Everything Now is such abysmal garbage I'm shocked it's the same band that wrote Funeral.

It's insane how they can go from four-perfect to near-perfect albums to that shitty Everything Now album. Like it wasn't even gradually. It was just a straight freefall to mediocrity.

The Suburbs (Deluxe) was my first album from them so that will always be my number one. Reflektor and Funeral alternate the next two spots and Neon Bible is a close fourth in my personal rankings.
