Episode 4: Celebrated Summer

The tension between Husker Du members Bob Mould, Grant Hart, and Greg Norton is beginning to show in the fourth of five episodes dedicated to the band's history -- but the music is too great to deny. This episode covers the SST years, in which the Huskers released a string of masterpieces, including the 1984 double album Zen Arcade.

Brilliant podcast series. Somehow, Hüsker Dü still feels underrated. Maybe the greatest power trio ever? PS. Long live Grant Hart.
Amazing
