Clever lyrics, loud rock 'n' roll riffs and more hooks than the outskirts of Times Square in the '80s -- the Hold Steady are back. This week, the Brooklynites by way of Minneapolis will unveil their fourth album, called 'Stay Positive,' which evokes the feel of DIY hardcore of yesterday. "I think the record in general is about the struggle to age gracefully, which in rock 'n' roll is an especially tricky business," singer Craig Finn tells Spinner.

The group dubbed "the world's greatest bar band" proves that as its members head into their late '30s, they've still got their chops as they drop five tunes from 'Stay Positive,' feeling that it's their best work to date. Watch the Hold Steady do what they do best as well as talk about their favorite baseball films and lyrics.
