BigHans
04.06.11 | you wouldnt like it, rocks too much. |
TheSpirit
04.06.11 | can't, listening to frantic disembowelment m/ |
Inveigh
04.06.11 | 1 and 4 are the only ones I don't have, but I really dig the others. I can never really decide between 2 and 3, but I got them in the order Hans suggested so I'd tend to agree with him on that. |
Maniac!
04.06.11 | You'll like my latest list. |
dnor
04.06.11 | ...but...but....but....I'm in the middle of "Tomboy", and OMG it's brilliant. Can I check these guys out later without risk of dying now? |
BigHans
04.06.11 | ok dnor, as long as you promise. |
dnor
04.06.11 | Promise. Pinky Promise. Have you checked out Panda Bear's new shit yet Hans? Shit rapes. |
Counterfeit

BigHans

dnor
04.06.11 | yeah, I thought about it...you probably WOULDN'T like it. lol |
dnor
04.06.11 | He is the drummer from Animal Collective. Think MPP-esque |
BigHans
04.06.11 | yeah then I would hate it, guarenteed |
dnor
04.06.11 | yeah, don't bother listening. I forgot that you DO NOT DIG that genre lol That's like somebody rec'ing me black metal or pop punk. My bad. lol |
BigHans
04.06.11 | lol

Counterfeit
04.06.11 | what you dont like the shrieks of someone with a rose bush shoved up their ass and shitty production? |
dnor
04.06.11 | lol feit...thank you. |
BigHans
04.06.11 | Ive just never been able to get into those two Chan, nor can I get into Navy Sheets and Yeah Sapphire. Rest is gold though. |
wabbit
04.06.11 | "somebody rec'ing me black metal or pop punk"
DUMB |
DoubtGin
04.06.11 | Not really into them, but "Boys and Girls in America" is pretty cool. |
AggravatedYeti
04.06.11 | yo stfu Hans I ALREADY LISTEN TO THIS BAND. |
BigHans

AggravatedYeti

wabbit
04.06.11 | "get laid down by the river"
Why is that idea in so so so many albums. |
BigHans
04.06.11 | Rabbit, youtube the song Stevie Nix off Separation Sunday. best laid down the river song ever. its the most Springsteen of all of their songs. |
BigHans
04.06.11 | Here I'll help:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8S846Em19Q |
wabbit
04.06.11 | already listened to it. Thats a really good song, dling album. |
BigHans
04.06.11 | excellent, Im proud |
Inveigh
04.06.11 | yeah Stevie Nix might just be my fav Hold Steady song ever |
BigHans
04.06.11 | my two favorite lines from that song:
HE CAME IN TO THE ER, DRINKING GIN FROM A JAM JAR. THE NURSES IN THE ER STARTED MAKING JOKES ABOUT THE ER SMELLING LIKE AN AFTER-BAR.
and
SHE GOT SCREWED UP BY RELIGION SHE GOT SCREWED BY SOCCER PLAYERS, SHE GOT HIGH FOR THE FIRST TIME ON THE CAMPS DOWN BY THE BANKS OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER, LORRRRRRRD TO BE 17 FOREVER. |
Inveigh
04.06.11 | fucking awesome |
letsgofishing
04.06.11 | List=win
Constructive Summer is their best song..Or perhaps Slapped Actress or First Night. You're spot on about Stay Positive, it's a
combination of the absolute best songwriting of their career, and some of their worst, it's complexing. I find the Great songs
make up for it though. |
BigHans
04.06.11 | Thanks man, I see you are a fan too, I drunkinly spammed your HS list. |
JarethCutestory
04.06.11 | I'll listen, but only because I don't like the second option. :( |
BigHans
04.06.11 | One for the Cutters has great lyrics, I just cant stand that talk box in Joke About Jamaica. Lyrics are good in that one too, naturally. |
Athom
04.06.11 | i like how you leave my favorite track from separation sunday off the recommended tracks. |
Athom
04.06.11 | also One for the Cutters rules. |
North0House2
04.06.11 | I remember when I was 14 or something and I listened to Stay Positive on Youtube and I was all retarded and said," MewithoutYou rip off." Every day I regret that comment because I know I was so wrong.
Great band. |
BigHans
04.06.11 | how in the hell did you get Mewithoutyou from listening to them? lol. Glad you've seen the light.
Adam what your favorite track off Sunday? |
North0House2
04.06.11 | "how in the hell did you get Mewithoutyou from listening to them? lol. Glad you've seen the light."
I have literally no idea whatsoever. lol. |

04.06.11 | what's wrong with mewithoutYou? love that band. |
BigHans
04.06.11 | Good song Adam |
BigHans
04.06.11 | Im no exprert on them, but I guess they do have rambling spoken voice vocals, so that might be the similarity. |
Satellite
04.06.11 | awesome list.
everybody needs to give these guys a listen and see them live. |
North0House2
04.06.11 | "Im no exprert on them, but I guess they do have rambling spoken voice vocals, so that might be the similarity."
Maybe that's what I saw. I'm not sure... thing is, I love MWY, so I should've known they sounded nothing like The Hold Steady. I still have no idea how I thought they were similar. |
BigHans
04.06.11 | STRUM THAT GUITAR! |
BigHans
04.06.11 | the only HS fanboy that isnt present and accounted for here is Kirgasm. |
Kiran
04.06.11 | made up for my tardiness by FEATURING this bad boy for maximum exposure |
MUNGOLOID
04.06.11 | haven't heard much from them. saw them perform on The Colbert Report though once. |
Nagrarok
04.06.11 | Damn you got one featured again. 3 is good stuff. |
ConsiderPhlebas
04.06.11 | The only one I'm really familiar with is 3. Need to give the rest more of a chance. |
robin
04.06.11 | one for the cutters is my favourite hold steady track |
Satellite
04.06.11 | i love one for the cutters. and the talkbox solo on joke about jamaica slays. |
letsgofishing
04.07.11 | Heaven is whenever, we can get together, sit down on your floor, and listen to your records :D |
Deviant.
04.07.11 | Guess I'm living then |
mallen-
04.07.11 | guessing maybe i inspired this a little with my lack of the band on my top 100 list |
Spec
04.07.11 | I don't think the mods even read Hans's lists anymore. They just feature every one regardless. |
DrunkBishyBoshy
04.07.11 | Love this band. 3 is impossibly good. Love 2 and 4 as well. |
BigHans
04.07.11 | guessing maybe i inspired this a little with my lack of the band on my top 100 list
^ Actually it wasnt Mike. Just felt like listenting to them yesterday. Kirg featured it cause he's as big a fanboy as I am. |
seifer
04.08.11 | have only listened to 3 real good album overall |
thebhoy
04.09.11 | love this band, but wtf Harpsichord MUST BE BAD.
Heaven is Whenever is not appreciated as much as it should be, I think A Slight Discomfort might be my favourite song by them, no lies bro |
BigHans
04.09.11 | I love the last half of SLight Discomfort, not a fan of the first part though. |
Josh D.
04.09.11 | Guess I'll die, RIP, see ya guys. |
G3N3R1C
04.09.11 | I've only heard 1, 3, and 5. I'm torn between 1 and 3 as to which one i'd consider my favorite out of those. |
Satellite
04.09.11 | "And you say you're a princess. But I remain unconvinced.
I've seen the guys that you've been with.
They don't seem much like princes.
And you say you're much better. But I don't quite believe it.
I saw the girls that you came with.
I saw the guy that you left with."
probably my favorite lines on HIW |
BigHans
04.09.11 | No its not |
Defeater
04.09.11 | what homo keeps featuring these lame ass lists |
Defeater
04.09.11 | i appreciate your efforts marsvoltafan91 |
BigHans
04.09.11 | yeah Someguest is like 7532 times better than me at making lists. Its probably not even that close. Its giving me a complex. |
dnor
04.09.11 | I might include a Hold Steady song on my Sputnik CD Hans... |
BigHans
04.09.11 | Which one |
random
04.10.11 | Stay Positive sounds interesting. |
thebhoy
04.10.11 | I think the lyrics to Slight Discomfort may be his best. |
wabbit
07.08.11 | so ya Constructive Summer... |

07.08.11 | me and my friends are like,
