Hüsker Dü (Music) | comment |
Hüsker Dü were an American Hardcore Punk/Alternative Rock band from St. Paul, MN who were together from 1979–88. They were composed of singer / guitarist / lyricist Bob Mould, bassist Greg Norton, and drummer / singer / lyricist Grant Hart. While they never had a hit record, among their most well-known work is the Concept Album Zen Arcade, the follow-up New Day Rising, their Cover Version of The Byrds' "Eight Miles High", and their single "Don't Want to Know If You Are Lonely", which was notably featured in the film Adventureland and covered by Green Day. They are regarded as seminal in the creation of the Alternative Rock and Post-Hardcore genres, and also Pop Punk.Rising tensions between the two primary songwriters, Mould and Hart, eventually led to the band's breakup in 1988. Since then, Mould and Hart have launched their own solo careers, while Norton became a restaurateur in the Twin Cities. Bob Mould has released an autobiography called: See a Little Light: The Trail of Rage and Melody, while Grant Hart was the subject of a documentary: Every Everything, the Music, Life & Times of Grant Hart.Although mainstream success eluded them, the influence they had on bands such as Dinosaur Jr., The Pixies, Jawbreaker, Green Day, Foo Fighters, and a plethora of others has secured their place as one of the most important bands in modern rock music.Sadly, Hart passed away in September 2017, after a long battle with cancer. | |

My Friends... and Zoidberg: An early incarnation of the band featured a keyboard player named Charlie Pine, who was soon booted by the other three after they decided that they wouldn't need a keyboard player. For the rest of their career, the line-up would consist of Mould, Hart, and Norton. | |

Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_1f59f683 | comment |
Emo Music: The band themselves don't exactly qualify, but their more emotionally charged and often melodic brand of hardcore punk wound up being a seminal influence on the genre from its origins in the 1980s DC hardcore scene into the 1990s, with bands like Rites of Spring and Jawbreaker among the early emo acts who were heavily influenced by them. | |

New Sound Album | |
Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_22093e9b | comment |
New Sound Album: Either Everything Falls Apart, Metal Circus, or Zen Arcade (depending on the listener's perspective) is where their songwriting became melody-based enough to differentiate them from traditional hardcore. Then New Day Rising took this further still. Flip Your Wig had a much more polished production than their previous records (which had also been their intention for New Day Rising, but they were overruled by their label), and largely did away with the remaining traces of their hardcore roots. The band's next two albums would continue in this domain, with a sound closer to R.E.M. than to Black Flag. | |

Miniscule Rocking | |
Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_2e70a1db | comment |
Miniscule Rocking: Land Speed Record packs 17 songs into 26½ minutes. Only "Data Control", at over five minutes in length, proves an exception to this trope (it's also played at a much slower tempo than the rest of the album). On Everything Falls Apart, "Punch Drunk" is 0:30, "Bricklayer" is 0:34, and "Obnoxious" is 0:55. Their usage of this trope would drop off with time. | |

Uncommon Time | |
Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_38da8916 | comment |
Uncommon Time: "Masochism World" has patterns of 4+5+4+4/4, or 17/4, in its verses. Its choruses are mostly in 6/4, but there are usually an extra two beats in the last bar. It may jump around even more than that at other points – it’s a fairly disorienting song. The verses of "Bricklayer" are in 7/4, though it’s played so fast it’s hard to notice. "In a Free Land" has an unusual rhythmic pattern before each chorus that, particularly due to its fast tempo, can be rather disorienting - it can either be counted as seven measures of 4/4 or a longer 14/4 measure. Additionally, Hart syncopates the opening drumbeat of each chorus to make it feel as though a beat has been taken out, though it isn’t actually. Slowing the recording down makes it easier to follow, but only marginally. “I Apologize� has two extra beats before each chorus, throwing measures of 6/4 into otherwise 4/4 passages. The intro riff to "How to Skin a Cat" reprised several times in the song, is an arguable variant; it’s so much of a tempo screw that it can’t really be counted as straight 4/4, even though it’s roughly based on patterns of eight. If you try to count using uniform lengths of time, you’ll quickly get derailed from what the band actually plays; moreover, the transition to the song’s other riff takes long enough that it could be counted as having an extra beat – or at least, almost so (again, tempo screw). | |

Looped Lyrics: "New Day Rising" has no lyrics besides the song's title. "Plans I Make" has a brief loop of: "I gotta make plans for the plans I make / Gotta have plans for the friends I make / I gotta have friends for the friends I make / Gotta have friends for the plans I make / Go make plans." After the first minute, the rest of the lyrics are: "go" and "make plans." | |

Pun-Based Title | |
Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_3eb0f889 | comment |
Pun-Based Title: Land Speed Record refers both to the ferocious speed of the material and the band's fondness (at the time) for amphetamines. And the fact that it is (well, was) a vinyl record. (As Mould explained, "We covered a lot of land. We took a lot of speed. And we made a record.") It's derived, naturally, from the phrase "land speed record", referring to the fastest speed clocked on land. The title of "Diane" sounds very close to "dying", and the song is, appropriately, a Murder Ballad. | |

Genre Roulette: In addition to the clear contrast between Mould and Hart's styles as songwriters, their albums go through an enormous number of musical styles, especially Zen Arcade and Warehouse. (For instance, "She Floated Away" is basically a sea shanty and "Actual Condition" is a rockabilly song on speed.) | |

Stop Being Stereotypical | |
Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_4dc88e20 | comment |
Stop Being Stereotypical: In "Real World" and "Deadly Skies", Mould rejects the notion that punk bands need to constantly involve themselves in radical politics, thus emancipating the band from some of the expectations imposed on them by their subculture. This is also partially the reason why the band chose its name. Mould said that the band wanted to distinguish itself from other bands with names "like 'Social Red Youth Brigade Distortion'" as a way of avoiding being pigeonholed as another hardcore punk band. | |

Downer Ending: The band's collapse after failing to find commercial success, plus the decades of animosity between that followed between Grant and Bob. Inverted (on a personal level) a few months before Grant's death, when Bob, having been informed on the state of his once-bandmate, spent a weekend with him in Minneapolis, on which both parties admitted their wrongdoings and buried the hatchet. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness: Norton wrote a few songs on the early releases ("Let's Go Die", "M.T.C.", plus co-writing "From the Gut" and "Blah, Blah, Blah" with Mould), but from Metal Circus onward, Hart and Mould wrote all the songs that appeared on their studio albums (occasional covers and a few tracks credited to the whole band aside; Norton did get the "Could You Be the One?" B-side "Everytime", which also appeared in a live version on The Living End). Everything Falls Apart and More also features experiments with a few styles that they wouldn't do much with later (e.g., Post-Punk), and the early releases feature much more Miniscule Rocking than they would use later. | |

Epic Rocking: "Reoccuring Dreams" clocks in at 13:47 (14:01 on some versions of the album). The unabridged version of the band's early single "Statues" is 8:45 (it was edited down to a 4:25 mix for the physical release, which is also the version used on Savage Young Dü; the unedited version is found on Everything Falls Apart and More). "Hardly Getting Over It" is 6:07. Finally, Savage Young Dü gives us a 6:48 rehearsal version of "Data Control" and a 6:16 live version of "It's Not Fair". | |

The former two are Norton's only writing credits on any of their later albums apart from "Hare Kṛṣṇa", "How to Skin a Cat", and "Plans I Make", all five of which are credited to the whole band (Mould gets credited for the latter two's lyrics). | |

Out-of-Genre Experience | |
Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_74ee1c2d | comment |
Out-of-Genre Experience: Even bearing in mind its stylistic diversity, Zen Arcade is structured so that the last song on each album side is dissimilar to the rest of that side’s content. "Hare Kṛṣṇa" is a bizarre, chant-heavy, Eastern-influenced piece that sounds like nothing else on the album. "Standing by the Sea" is essentially the album's "Love, Reign O'er Me"; it's subdued (largely based on a bass riff) and, at the same time, anthemic. "The Tooth Fairy and the Princess" is a Creepy Awesome psychedelic song. "Reoccurring Dreams" is a lengthy instrumental jam, the only one of its kind in their discography. | |

Eagle Land: While not an overly political band (at least by Punk standards), songs such as: "In a Free Land", "Folk Lore", and "Divide and Conquer" portray America as a Type II. | |

The title of "Diane" sounds very close to "dying", and the song is, appropriately, a Murder Ballad. | |

Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_80a247a9 | comment |
Breather Episode: Quite a few of them on Zen Arcade in particular. The first three examples listed under Out-of-Genre Experience below count, as do songs like "Monday Will Never Be the Same", "One Step at a Time", and "Never Talking to You Again". Other albums have songs like "Perfect Example", "Games", "Hardly Getting Over It" (though this one only counts as a musical breather; emotionally it's as intense as the rest of the album), "She Floated Away", and "No Reservations". The most extreme example is probably "The Baby Song" from Flip Your Wig. | |

Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_83b44e80 | comment |
Straight Gay: While it had been an open secret in the Twin Cities music community for some time, Bob Mould officially came out as gay in the early '90s. Amusingly, while the band was together, the rumors swirled around Greg Norton being gay (mostly due to his awesome handlebar mustache) - he's the one band member who's actually straight. | |

Loudness War: Their career came and went before this trope was much of a problem. The recent reissues still haven't been extreme examples by modern standards, with the exception of one or two odd examples such as "Stick It to Me (live)" and "Wheels (live)" on Savage Young Dü, and the vastly improved sonic clarity will almost certainly counteract any concerns people might otherwise have about dynamic range. | |

Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_dda99fa8 | comment |
Despair Event Horizon: "Too Far Down" and "Hardly Getting Over It" are both about depression. "Too Far Down" could be considered to represent the hopelessness one feels upon the first onset of the illness, while "Hardly Getting Over It" represents the numbness one feels after suffering months or years of it. The band has other songs that also deal with depression, but these two stand out. | |

Subtext: Mould is gay; Hart was bisexual, although this was not widely publicized at the time the band was active. This knowledge adds an extra layer of meaning to songs like "The Biggest Lie", which thereby becomes a very different song. (Note that, while it was rumored that Hart and Mould were romantically involved and their tensions were a reason for the band's breakup, they both flatly denied it). | |

As Long as It Sounds Foreign: How they ended up with their name. While doing a cover of Talking Heads' "Psycho Killer" during a rehearsal, they were unable to remember the French portions of the lyrics and instead started shouting out any foreign words they could remember. One of the phrases ended up being "Husker Du", and they decided to use that (with added Heavy Metal Umlauts) as the name of the band. | |

Fading into the Next Song | |
Hüsker Dü (Music) / int_f3cf057b | comment |
Fading into the Next Song: Land Speed Record only has gaps for LP side breaks. Even by the standards of live albums, it stands out here, given that the band would rarely pause between songs at this point when playing live, and in fact, most CD versions of the album have only two tracks. Everything Falls Apart doesn't use it quite as much as Land Speed Record, but there's still a fair amount of it: "Punch Drunk" -> "Bricklayer" -> "Afraid of Being Wrong" "Sunshine Superman" -> "Signals from Above" -> "Everything Falls Apart" "Wheels" -> "Target" -> "Obnoxious" On Metal Circus, "Diane" -> "Out on a Limb" (a faint one, but still present). Zen Arcade uses it a lot, too. The only time the CD version completely fades out, actually, is for LP side gaps, but in some cases, it's mostly tape noise. However, there are several songs that very audibly fade into one another: "Broken Home, Broken Heart" -> "Never Talking to You Again" -> "Chartered Trips" "Dreams Reoccurring" -> "Indecision Time" "Beyond the Threshold" -> "Pride" "What's Going On" -> "Masochism World" "Somewhere" -> "One Step at a Time" -> "Pink Turns to Blue" -> "Newest Industry" "Monday Will Never Be the Same" -> "Whatever" On Candy Apple Grey, "Hardly Getting Over It" -> "Dead Set on Destruction". | |
