HUSKER DU
Zen Arcade
2025 U.S. 2xLP reissue

Quite simply one of the greatest albums of all time, regardless of genre.
Call it whatever you want; #punk , #hardcore , #alternative … whatever.

The songcraft transcends whatever label you want to give it, and it cannot be pigeonholed. Not even 40+ years later.

That’s always what made HUSKER DU special. None of their peers from WHATEVER that scene was could do what their TWO great songwriters were doing.
Bob and Grant were incredible foils for each other.
Fast, furious, melodic, catchy, angry, pensive, thoughtful, beautiful… they were ALL those things, and Zen Arcade is the magnum opus that shows EVERY one of those adjectives all at once.
VITAL.

I will never get sick of listening to this.
Or ANY Husker Du album, for that matter.
