Here's the capsule:
"Through three albums, The Hold Steady managed to add legions of devoted followers to its fan base with every record, while somehow becoming a better and better band. Stay Positive is best described as The Hold Steady's "mountaintop" record—it doesn't shake up the formula or reach out to new fans, it just revels in what Craig Finn and company do well, in a straightforward, meat-and-potatoes manner guaranteed to drive members of the band's "unified scene" to even greater ecstatic levels of bromantic adoration. And as Finn gushes on the title track, the feeling of love is mutual. (Hyden)"
