Pitchfork's Most Hyped...

If you read Pitchfork at all - and let's face it, most of us do - then you know that The Hold Steady's latest album is garnering an incredible amount of attention. Does it deserve it? That's something you'll have to decide for yourself. As for me, the words "not impressed" come to mind. Don't get me wrong, the album is good. But I think calling it brilliant may be going a little Goldie Hawn & Kurt Russell - as in going 'Overboard'.
