Bob Mould

This third album of Bob Mould is a nice alternative rock album. He played all instruments and provided all vocals. This makes the album sometimes a bit dull. Bob does not have the most dynamic voice and arragements of the instruments are not all that spectacular. It's not a punishment to listen to it though.

Great record! One of Bob's best across his spectrum of projects.

Cover art looks boring as all buggery. This isn't too bad. It's just kinda catchy 90s alternative/punk stuff. Doesn't really pick up much, relies a lot on being pretty easy listening. But that's nice thing. It's easy to like. 4/5.

Gen X college radio hour again... I owned this on CD and listened to it near obsessively in the early 90s for something like half a year, then not much after that. I think i sold it at some point. At this late date I find some of it has that flattened affect I often see in the single artist production album, a product I think of too uniform a point of view. But I still liked it very well. Fort Knox, King Solomon and Thumbtack remain two of my favorite things in this genre of music.

Another solid if unexpected pick. Personally would have still gone for Zen Arcade though

Rating: 6/10

I dont remember anything about husker du but I feel like this is very different from that type of music. It felt like the live music you’d hear at a local boomer lounge. Not super complex and nothing super special but it’s still sounds decent.

Good enough scuzzy indie.

This was a solid listen, but I tend to prefer Bob Mould's Workbook-era albums. One thing about this album that intrigues me though is how it breaks creatively from the work Mould was doing while in Sugar. You can almost read the very palpable anger and emotional exhaustion of these songs in the context of a broken relationship or that of a broken band. He wouldn't be the first artist who explored that territory, but it's pretty clever. Fave Songs: Next Time That You Leave, Art Crisis, Deep Karma Canyon, Anymore Time Between, Roll Over and Die

Still felt like a Husker Du album, but one that had aged much better and felt fresher. Really enjoyed some of the guitar work at play on this LP – not every track is a winner and there are some definite snoozers, but I’m a sucker for this kind of 90s guitar and enjoyed listening overall.

The big note about this album on Wikipedia is the theme for the Daily Show was Keith ally written for this album but cut so

Rock alternativo. NI fu ni fa.

I’ve heard of Bob Mould and Husker Du but never explored the music. This was decent music that I didn’t mind listening to.

Decent 90s alternative dude rock

Liked this

Fine enough

Nothing too special

Very weird album, in a good way. Some heavy instrumental stuff going on, and sometimes just straight rock. Didn't save a lot but very cool pick.

Mouldy

I like Bob Mould but I enjoy him more with Husker Du.

Desperately boring

A rather interesting album. On one hand it’s a varying amount of alternative that is pretty decent for how ranging it is. On the other hand it’s a sporadic compilation of songs that don’t meld together too well. Some songs I thought were pretty decent but overall it wasn’t very cohesive causing me to lose interest in the album as a whole. 5.2/10

Maybe I’m missing something but this just felt like a 90’s rock album.

It wasn't an album that made me very happy, I found it deficient. I expected more for the genre, there wasn't a track that caught my attention.

Come on now! Whoever put this on must definitely be a relative of Bob
