Reviews (page 8 of 8)

Too long but quite a few good tracks. Reminded me of R.E.M.

Rock in a tin can. I should like it. I should love it, even. But I don't. Bob Mould's voice has a lot to do with it. It's too... well, not too anything. That's the problem.

Meh. Just not much interesting going on in the sound or lyrics.

Started out great, then seemed a bit redundant

It's cool to see this type of music coming out of st Paul! Great sounds, love the way the music is somewhat harsh but still easy to listen to.

Liked the Spice number...but not my thing

I find this album rather irritating, in a listening to R.E.M. kind of way.

Sounds like a crazed R.E.M.

I don't know much Hüsker Dü, which I guess is a sin since I live in MN. Regardless, this alt-rock sound does nothing for me, it's there and inoffensive but it doesn't move me in any way. Sounds like they were originally more of a punk/hardcore band so if those albums come up I may be into that more.

This is fine. The guitar tone doesn't cut at all, so the sound seems a little too round for the style. Their sound is really reminiscent of a lot of bands, especially the vocal tone. Some of these songs I think could be really good, but the overly compressed sound and poor dynamic choices really hamstring this album's impact. Tell You Why Tomorrow is a perfect example.

Nothing impressed me with this album. I felt like the singing was often overwhelmed by the music and all you could hear was the title phrase being repeated over and over

Ice Cold Ice was great. I was getting some serious BNL vibes from the vocals throughout which is always a good thing.

Gave me some major R.E.M. vibes mixed with Barenaked Ladies. I actually really liked this alternative album a lot and didn’t feel like I was listening to the same song over and over on the album.

I thought it was fine, pretty bland though.

I can definitely hear their influence on other bands. But I didn't like this very much

Wow, absolutely loved this! Sounded like pop punk before it even was pop punk. I had only known one song by Husker Du before, but didn't think to even check out their albums. I'm a fan. (Shocked that the other reviews are so bad!)

twas aight

Fine but not my vibe

It was fine. I don’t think I care for this band but I should listen more…

De hecho me gustaron varias canciones. Claro que al final todas se parecen

Ugh. I was in college when they were pushing this as college rock. I just can't. His voice grates on me.

Muy buen disco de rock de intensidad moderada. Grupo sin tanta repercusión, pero con canciones con ritmo. Me ha gustado

This was a strangely underwhelming record given that you can clearly hear Hüsker Dü’s influence on so many later post-punk and pop-punk artists. I didn’t enjoy it very much, but it probably deserves to be on this list.

I can't really say that this album did anything for me. It all kind of sounded the same and I didn't feel much of a connection to any of it. I guess I can see why the band opted to call it quits after this.

El nombre sonaba bien pero no les pillo

2.8 - I just hear a group of awkward suburban dads who decided to relive their glory days gigging in bands - listen closely and you can hear the gurgling beer bellies and flapping double chins.

So boring

There is nothing interesting or notable other than decent heavy rock and roll guitar playing. That and $5 will get you a ham sandwich.

Why is this so fucking long. It's okay I guess, but I can't sit through over an hour and 20 tracks of it

Was leuk

I was expecting this to be dodgy dance music (not sure why) so I was happily surprised and enjoyed it.

I am late-comer to Husker Du, but I love the energy with hints of melody thrown in. Big fan of this album especially.

Svårbedömt. Bitvis bra, melodiöst och rockigt, annars för "amerikanskt" och Smash Mouth-punkigt. Bob Goulds röst är ganska tråkig, förutom på ett par spår då han plötsligt låter som Ozzy? Albumet tappar väldigt mycket på sin omfattning. 20 låtar är alldeles för mycket. Spår 5 och 7-14 är ganska bra, och skulle ensamma bilda ett bra album. Nu är det som ett bra album insprängt i ett dåligt. Vilket är synd. Spår 11, She Floated Away, har ett helt annat tempo än resten av skivan, och låter nästan som någon Pouges-aktig shanty. Mkt bra. Överlag, helt ok myspunk. Bästa låt: She Floated Away.

Not the strongest album of theirs in my opinion. Definitely miss the edge of their earlier stuff

I will admit that this is a band I had only ever heard of and never heard. Once again, though this is not my new favorite album, I can totally hear the origins of later music in the chords of this.

It doesn’t start that bad and props for being different in the era of horrible music but it just drags a lot.

Good but a bit long. Rockier REM

Jangly melodic indie punk. I used to love this album, but I haven't listened to it in years and I was just disappointed and a bit bored this time round. It still has quite a few amazing tracks, but so many just sound the same.

It wasn't quite so bad that I had to skip songs halfway through, but I'm quitting the album after 7 tracks. It's too distracting and frankly, pretty annoying. I quite dislike the tinny-sounding production and the chaotic vibes of the album.

I get this was an influential band, and this album was their last. But this was not good. Turns out good bands can be greatly influenced by bad bands.

Interesting to hear this, and it feels like it influenced bands and a sound. As an album it's too long and pointless.
