Rock and Roll Problems

Some Hold Steady tracks have leaked, in advance of their May 4 release, "Heaven is Wherever", and upcoming tour (which I am missing the "local leg" this time around, for Wilco).

"Rock Problems". Sort of sounds like an outtake.

"Hurricane J". I know the male version of this character. At least, the title could arguably be the effect he had on my head.

"Hurricane J" is definitely the stronger of the tracks. I'm excited for the rest of the album. But then, it's The Hold Steady. It wouldn't be possible for me NOT to be excited for this one.
