The Hold Steady: Stay Positive
Stay Positive is supposed to represent the creative peak of a band that’s earned more Springsteen comparisons than Mellencamp. Guitarist Tad Kubler even told Rolling Stone- "There are some bands that do five records that all sound similar. We've tried to avoid that." Unfortunately, except the talk boxes, harpisichords, mandolins and horns, this is still the same Hold Steady.
