Listen to The Hold Steady’s fiery single ‘Spices’ from new album
The Hold Steady have shared a third preview of their upcoming album ‘Open Door Policy’ – listen to ‘Spices’ below.The new song follows last month’s album announcement and the band sharing first single ‘Family Farm’, as well as recent second track ‘Heavy Covenant’.“‘Spices’ began with the intro riff that guitarist Tad Kubler brought in,” frontman Craig Finn said of the new song, “and it unfurled quickly when the band got together. It’s probably one of the heaviest songs on the record, but it achieves some levity with the horn section that arrives at the chorus.“Like a number of others on the record, ‘Spices’ speaks of technology – the way texts, social media, DMs, etc.
