WHO: Bob Mould
WHAT: Here We Go Crazy
WHY: Is it dad-rock? Is it power-trio? A little of both? A lot? I fall in the minority where I think Bob Mould’s later output is better than I do Husker Du. Not that I don’t like Husker Du, but his music over the past 10 years is just so hard and catchy, you know? Here We Go Crazy follows the same path of the last two albums: it’s heavy, catchy, sincere and pushed for urgency. Also, Jon Wurster’s pounding drums have never sounded louder. An old formula was just tweaked for the better!
