... basking in the glory that is Bob Mould

I love Husker Du, I love Bob Mould, and I love Sugar. His approach to American punk, both as a musical form and his techniques in the studio, is nothing short of revolutionary.

Husker Du was loud fast and out of control and was never going to really cross over. But Sugar, his second group, was tight, focused, and really should have been HUGE. I always forget how good they were.

Here's "I Can't Change Your Mind:, from their first album Copper Blue. It's a great piece of pop but doesn't sell out anything. Should have been huge I tell ya, huge. But no...we got Collective Soul instead.
