Description
Following the release of the highly praised 2008 album 'Stay Positive', 'A Positive Rage' is the first ever live album from American rockers The Hold Steady. Packaged as a CD and DVD set, the album features seventeen tracks from the second night of their sold-out Metro show in Chicago in October 2007. Capturing the ups and down of a band on tour, the fifty three minute documentary included on the bonus DVD charts the rise of the band after the success of their critically acclaimed 2006 album 'Boys And Girls In America'. Featuring unseen backstage footage, interviews and their first ever London performance, the documentary culminates with their twenty four date American tour.

Press Reviews
The setlist for this Halloween night show is a saving grace for the record. It's good to hear rarities like 'You Gotta Dance (With Who You Came With)' or 'Girls Like Status'... Pitchfork (Website)

Comments about ROUGH TRADE Hold Steady - A Positive Rage (CD+DVD):
Great band, I saw them in Brisbane, Australia. Traveled 10 hours to get there. The set list on this CD is very similar to the one they played and the sound is clear as. If you are a fan you will love it. if you are not, you will love it and want more.
