Incidentally, Neil has suggested in an interview that the entire "clock section," with its total length of about 22 minutes, can be thought of as a single composition and that, had it been released on vinyl back in the glory days of "prog rock," it would almost certainly have ended up as a suite taking up an entire album side. (Think Yes's "Close to the Edge," Genesis's "Supper's Ready," and Emerson, Lake, and Palmer's "Tarkus," among other prog classics.) And that's precisely how it appears in the limited-edition vinyl edition of The Most Incredible Thing, occupying the first side of the second disc.
The clockworks, magically resurrected, now avenge themselves on Karl. We hear numbers counted off in seemingly random order, though probably in conjunction with actions onstage by the corresponding "clock figures." (One fan has observed that the voice counting off those numbers is apparently that of the same Texas Instruments talking calculator used in "Two Divided by Zero," the very first track on the very first PSB album.) The earlier clock music is now back in full force, but this time sounding rather threatening. Melodic themes continue to be reiterated, punctuated by orchestral "blasts" that signal the clock's attack on Karl. He is literally consumed by the resurrected clock, ironically becoming a part of the beautiful thing he had hated enough to destroy. After a final, brief statement of the clock's primary musical motif, we hear twelve concluding chimes: "midnight" (death) for the villain.
I no longer recall who proposed DRAGON TEARS, but I remember that the word dragon had been in one of my suggested titles, tears in another. The moment this combination was conceived, everyone thought it was brilliant. Except me. I explained that TICKTOCK worked in at least three ways: first, the sound of a ticking clock suggests suspense (yes, it does, damn it); second, the lead characters in the story eventually refer to the villain as Ticktock; third, a major set piece in the novel literally involves a halt in the flow of time. DRAGON TEARS, on the other hand, had no connection to the story, because the novel contained no sobbing dragon, no dragon who laughed until he cried, no dragon who had medical problems with his lacrimal apparatus, in fact no dragon at all.
Two unreleased songs that were recorded during the The Price of Progress sessions. Side A is "The Death of the Punchline," which has become a fan-favorite in the band's live show. Side B is "Radar & Leda." Each piece will be different, due to pressing of random colours.
The Price of Progress is the band's ninth studio album and third with producer Josh Kaufman, and it stands as their most sonically expansive record yet, while also being unmistakably a THS record. The Hold Steady have been celebrating their 20th Anniversary as a band throughout 2023.

Piston Circuits are circuits featuring logic gates created with pistons that are in some cases smaller and more compact than traditional logic gates.Some circuits, such as a 0.5 tick on and 0.5 tick off clock, need pistons.
The quirk can cause unexpected bugs in complicated circuit designs when not accounted for, but it does have several practical uses. For example, double doors require opposite power states, but inverting one signal delays that door's response by 1 tick. Prior to Beta 1.3 and the introduction of the Redstone Repeater, the only known way to perfectly synchronize them was with this 1-tick repeater. Another application is in creating a clock circuit (see below) with an even pulse width and period.
A 4-clock with a regular on/off pulse width is also possible as seen in design E. This design uses five torches, but can be constructed so that it has a pulse width of 4 ticks by employing the North/South Quirk. It is important that the orientation of this design (or at least the portion containing the stacked torches) be along the north/south axis.
Design H is an unusual, stable 1-tick piston clock. For it to work, the block the piston moves must be placed last. The piston will extend and retract very quickly. The output wire appears to stay off because it's changing state faster than the game visually updates. Attaching a piston or other device to the output will show that it is working.
Very rapid clocks with even pulsewidth can be designed out of only Redstone Repeaters. By increasing the delay on each repeater or by increasing the number of repeaters in the loop, the clock can be slowed. These clocks act as variable clocks, but have higher maximum speeds, but these can't be used as it soon burns out the torch, one has to set the repeater on its third setting to stop it burning out.
Pistons can be used to create new types of clocks with a modifiable pulse delay without the use of pulse generators. This allows other pistons to be clocked in a fashion that only leaves the arm extended for the time required to push an adjacent block, as shown in design A.Design B requires two sticky pistons, but may be more stable. It is also easily controlled by just set one side redstone high to stop it from running. The repeaters can be infinitely extended (up to practical limits such as space) to have very long delay clock.
A triggered repeater is a repeating circuit that can be triggered on or off (see diagram A). A Triggered Repeater is made with a Lever leading into a vertical Monostable (6 ticks for the underlying repeaters) circuit. This first Monostable circuit is then led into a following Mnostable circuit (also with 6 tick repeaters) followed by 3 repeaters, each set with a tick of 2. These 3 repeaters are then led back into the second Monostable circuit, and also into a third Monostable circuit (again with the underlying repeaters at 6 ticks). This third Monostable circuit, will then lead into the first Monostable circuit. The lever can then be switched to on, causing the repeaters to repeat a signal in a loop. Once the lever is switched to off, the repeaters will then cease. This is useful for arranging traps that will repeat while a signal is on while the lever activates a separate device, and to have the traps off, while undoing another device. (An example is a draw bridge that will continuously fire arrows will the bridge is open, and cease firing while the bridge is closed.) If the Monostable circuits are not set to 6 each, and the repeating circuit's repeaters are not set to 2 ticks each, the entire circuit will turn off. Dimensions 3 wide, 14 long, and 2 high.
A Triggered repeater that will only repeat when the input is off (see diagram B, above). This setup is far more compact than a regular Triggered Repeater; it has a width of only 2 blocks, and a length of only 8 blocks, allowing it to fit into shorter and more narrow spaces. However, it's also higher with a height of 3. The setup for this circuit also requires a monostable circuit just like the one used in the regular, however, the on top of the block the second torch is placed, has a repeater with 1 tick, instead of a redstone wire. After the torch, place 1 wire, followed by a repeater set to 1 tick. (Two ticks also works, however, the circuit could cease functioning sooner). Three wires are then set making a 180 degree turn to either side, the second wire must be one block below the other blocks, with the third wire adjacent to the repeater. The second wire of these three, is the first wire for a second monostable circuit, making it one below the monostable circuit that is adjacent, removing any wires from criss-crossing between the two. This is a regular monostable circuit with only the 6 tick repeaters on the lower level. The end will then flow back to the beginning.
