Bob Mould — Life And Times

in
By Steve McLean (CHARTattack) April 14, 2009 1:40 pm
Mould's ninth solo album in the 20 years since the break-up of Husker Du checks in with 10 songs performed in 38 minutes, so you're not getting the opus you might expect from the title. He's likely saving the meatier personal stuff to elaborate on more fully in next year's autobiography. Mould recorded Life And Times in his home studio and played...

Bob Mould Runs Through Every Era Of A 25-Year Career

in
By Steve McLean (CHARTattack) March 11, 2008 2:00 pm
The last Canadian Music Week performance I saw ended after 4 a.m. on Sunday morning, and I won't catch my first band at South By Southwest until early Wednesday afternoon. The between-music festival blues were starting to kick in and I needed a live music fix. Luckily, Bob Mould was playing a 20-minute walk from my house at the Mod Club on Monday...

Bob Mould — District Line

in
By Steve McLean (CHARTattack) February 5, 2008 3:25 pm
While Mould has recorded some excellent songs on his five solo albums since 1989's Workbook, that aspect of his career has always been overshadowed by his groundbreaking work with Husker Du and the muscular buzz-pop he created with Sugar. So I looked forward to District Line after reading that it was a return to earlier form, which only increased...

Bob Mould — Body Of Song

in
By John Teshima (CHARTattack) July 26, 2005 2:52 pm
It’s been a few years since Mould’s last album of new material and even longer since he used the full electric guitar assault that characterized his early '90s material with Sugar. Some fans will welcome Body Of Song as a return to form, while others will bemoan it as a conservative step backwards. Either way, Body Of Soul shows that Mould's still...

Bob Mould — Modulate

in
By Tim Melton (CHARTattack) March 19, 2002 3:21 pm
Mould’s latest may leave his fans hanging their heads after the completion of this warped affair. Mould has virtually abandoned the warm-fuzzy guitar distortion and acoustic touches of his earlier work and replaced them with cold electronic loops and whoooooshes to back up his keen sense of melody. The results sound like day-old Pet Shop Boys and...

We'll be honest: We're always going to prefer Husker Du to anything else Mouldy has done, but this isn't half bad, and is at least way, way better than last year's terrible District Line. "Wasted World" was pretty damn good.

Bob Mould Likes Rock 'N' Roll Again

in
By Sarah Kurchak (CHARTattack) September 30, 2005 12:00 pm
Although it had no influence on his decision to retire from rock music in 1998, alternative god Bob Mould made it pretty clear that he was disgusted with the sad state of the whole scene when he left. Seven years and two electronic-flavoured albums later (Modulate and the Loud Bomb project), Mould has returned with a new guitar-driven album, Body...
