Hüsker Dü: New Day Rising

A fundamental album for alternative rock alongside various daydream nation, surfer rosa, murmur, bug, etc. Between the (now long past) hardcore punk of zen arcade and the contaminations with the best pop of warehouse: songs and stories comes out this, with a remarkable sound wall (at times proto-shoegaze) and excellent songwriting that will inspire many subsequent works.

    You were perfect in weaving the sure praises of a fundamental album for the definitive growth of the kids from Minnesota; allow me one further commendable note regarding the gorgeous cover. Extraordinary band: pop-core of the highest quality.

Robust injections of psychedelia, pop, folk rock, and experimentation propel Zen Arcade and Hüsker Dü far beyond hardcore punk and towards the subsequent wonders (most notably, of course, New Day Rising and Warehouse: Songs and Stories).

    A record that marked my past youth; discovered by chance in high school thanks to a classmate: a crazy love that has never ended. A sublime band, practically perfect. I only mention the opening track "Something I Learned Today," two minutes of explosiveness with Greg's earth-shaking bass...and then Bob's guitar arrives, carving into the soul and spirit. Great shoutout madcat, I admire you to madness...REOCURRING DREAMS............

    thank you :D I then read that it was recorded in 85 hours, 85 (!), when we talk about communicative urgency..

    It is true it was recorded in just a few hours: they didn’t need to waste time in the studio. They already had clear ideas and songs at that time.

The pinnacle of songwriting by Husker Du. For me, their absolute peak.

    They haven't made any bad records; for me, the best of the best of the best (my favorites) are that half masterpiece hardcore "Everything Falls Apart," the EP "Metal Circus," the monumental "Zen Arcade," and "New Day Rising," but this one is also a masterpiece, even though Hart disappoints me a bit with his songs here... but Mould's tracks are so beautiful that who cares about Hart... The record I like the least, however, remains "Candy Apple Grey."

    As I mentioned elsewhere, Silas, I completely agree with you on the beautiful Zen Arcade and New Day Rising, and also on Candy Apple Grey, which perhaps is the least successful one.

    A great battle between Warehouse and Zen Arcade: a Solomon-like tie for me, at least. Two albums that it's almost reductive to define as sonic monuments, especially considering the quantity of songs; and what can I say about the first live album, that Land Speed Record, which deserves rivers of words just for its cover... and then there are the songs. Ice Cold Ice forever and ever.
