Hüsker Dü

Hüsker Dü were an American rock band from Minnesota, best known as a Minneapolis trio (Bob Mould, Grant Hart, Greg Norton) who helped expand 1980s hardcore punk into melodic, emotionally charged alternative and indie rock. Their run from the early 1980s to 1988 is frequently cited as hugely influential, with Zen Arcade often treated as a landmark release.

 Zen Arcade is innovative not only for American hardcore but for punk as a whole.

 This album is me.


By Mario

 This album is the brightest and most accomplished legacy of the punk era, and the term hardcore is just a pretext.

 Reoccurring Dreams... 14 minutes of psychedelic vertigo, the emo-core wall of Mould’s guitar spirals on itself, harboring abrasive discharges of searing feedback.


By /stricnina/

 I was overwhelmed by everything: anger, desolation, violence, the encyclopedia of Punk, whatever you want.

 The crackling of a record player says it all without the help of anything or anyone, except our heart.
