So I’ve never really dabbled with Husker Du before – so this was all new to me… Being honest – I kept getting this “harder edged REM” vibe, as well as a “pop punk” vibe – so not sure how that maps on to what the critics say, but that’s what I heard… For me, the album got better and better the more I listened, so that was a pleasant surprise – and while not exactly my cup of tea (i.e. not a punk fan by any stretch…) I found several songs that I enjoyed… Best songs IMO were – “Ice Cold Ice” – 4 out of 7 stars… “Too Much Spice” – 5 out of 7 stars… “She Floated Away” – 4 out of 7 stars… “It’s Not Peculiar” – 5 out of 7 stars… “You Can Live At Home” – 4 out of 7 stars… So nothing life changing, but not bad for punk… It is interesting that the bulk of the songs that I liked, were written by Grant Hart – and NOT Bob Mould – who I always heard was the heart and soul of Husker Du – not sure what to do with that, but there it is… Can’t quite get this to a 3, but a 2 from me for a punk album is pretty good, and never would have found this album without the 1,001…
