Happy 66th birthday to one of the all-time greats, Bob Mould! I’m 131 pages deep into recording & editing the Husker Du audio documentary series (of 179 pages). This is going to be staggering. Not including the Mould and Norton interviews, I’m projecting a 12-episode length. I can’t wait for this monumental project to fully come together. :)

Hüsker Dü
Hüsker Dü were an American alternative rock band from Minneapolis, formed in 1979. Early in their career, they played fast and aggressive hardcore punk before developing a more melodic sound with elements of alternative rock. Their albums Zen Arcade and New Day Rising are considered classics of American underground rock. The band had a major influence on the development of alternative and indie rock. Despite their relatively short career, Hüsker Dü became one of the most influential bands in American punk history.

THE ART OF THE DIG 🎶💿

Treated myself to a rare day off today, jumped in the car and went for a drive. No real plan — and somehow ended up stumbling across a record store I’d never been to before.

The place was an absolute jungle of vinyl, CDs and books. Boxes, crates and shelves everywhere, seemingly in no particular order. The kind of store that brings the term “digging” back to life.

A couple of chaotic hours rummaging around paid off with three absolute gems:

🎧 Hüsker Dü — Zen Arcade
Raw, ambitious and hugely influential. A landmark of ’80s alternative music.

🎧 Joni Mitchell — Mingus
Joni deep into jazz territory, featuring the extraordinary Jaco Pastorius on bass. Adventurous, beautiful and completely unique.

🎧 Killing Joke — Killing Joke
Their ferocious 1980 debut — post-punk, industrial, dub and menace. Still sounds incredible today.

Nothing beats finding records this way. No algorithm. No search bar. Just hours of digging and that moment when you pull out something special.

Makes the find that much sweeter. 👌

⭐️ COMPLETE EPISODE AVAILABLE PUBLICLY! ⭐️

Bob Mould Talks Sugar (Ep. 272)

Link in Discograffiti bio for the public stream & the ad-free Patreon version.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. Prior to barreling headfirst into the creation of our upcoming Hüsker Dü audio documentary series, Dave Gebroe talked with Bob Mould about the resurrection of his other great power trio: Sugar.

Here are just a few of the many things that Bob discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

* Why Sugar ended after a run of such massive success;
* How Copper Blue and Beaster were recorded in one great simultaneous rush;
* Bob’s favorite Sugar records in descending order;
* The types of music that Bob makes just for himself, without thinking of releasing;
* The closure he was able to reach with Grant Hart at the end of his life;
* And the two records Bob claims are the standard-bearers, against which he can’t help but compare everything he makes.

"I dont want to know if you aree lonelyyy" 😝🎶🔥

#nowspinning Hüsker Dü's 5th album "Candy Apple Grey" (1986) Original Pressing 🤘🤘🤘

Heyy #vinylcommunity I must be going through something because yesterday I felt so down low I couldn't even get out of bed I was so bummed out.. Today however I'm amped up and super happy! Who knows man 😅 anyways over the weekend I met up with a seller from @discogs I saw that he was from St.Paul Minnesota which is only 15 minutes from me so I shot him a message asking if he'd take cash and to my surprise he was down to meet up! I was only going to buy a Slim Dunlap record (The Replacements 2nd Guitarist) but he came with a whole bunch of good stuff. Including this almost mint copy of one of the Twin-Cities best punk groups Hüsker Dü 😎

This album finds the band at a transitional point, it's their first record on a major label having signed from SST an Indie label from California, to Warner Bros. doing so would have Hüsker sand down their rough edges from abrasive punky hard rock to a more alternative sound. It also finds them working more with acoustic guitars like on the song "Too Far Gone" theres even some synth on the tracks "Hardly Getting Over It" & "No Promise Have I Made" which adds some nice texture 🔥🎶

The tracks flip-flop between the two writers Bob Mould & Grant Hart, with the latter writing some of the groups most accessible radio friendly tracks in "Dont Want to Know If You Are Lonely" & "Sorry Somehow" both songs I've grown to love when I hear them on the radio, they'd also get some time on MTV.

Even with the exposure though this album would only chart at 140 on Billboards top 200

I know the hard-core punk fanbase were upset with this release but over the years this thing has gotten better and better, there's some seriously great stuff on here! 🤘🔥

Also the cover art was done by Daniel Corrigan it's eight layers of broken glass lit up by 12 different lights. You can hear the glass crashing on the first track "Crystal" which is also the only hard-core punk song on the album a sorta nod to their past
