HÜSKER DÜ

GRANT HART, GREG NORTON, BOB MOULD 

Influential Minneapolis punk trio that deftly juggled the screaming self-examination 

of Bob Mould with the biting pop-romanticism of Grant Hart.

Hüsker Dü and R.E.M. were the two American post-punk bands of the '80s 

that changed the direction of rock & roll. R.E.M. became a superstar band; 

Hüsker Dü never was more than a cult favorite. Nevertheless, their albums between 

1981 and 1987 have proven remarkably influential; they provided the sonic blueprint 

for the roaring punk-pop hybrid that crossed over into the mainstream in the early '90s

RECORD EX but (please, read above description)

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)

A seven-song EP bristling with energy and pummeling guitars, Metal Circus 

is the first indication of Hüsker Dü's greatness. With these seven songs, 

the band shows more invention, skill, and melody than it did over the course 

of a full album with Everything Falls Apart, and both Bob Mould and 

Grant Hart emerge as significant songwriters. While they both stay 

within hardcore conventions on Metal Circus, their songs illustrate that t

hey would break free of its constrictions on their subsequent,

 masterful double album, Zen Arcade...(AllMusic)
