Hüsker Dü's Biography
Hüsker Dü was a highly-influential hardcore punk and alternative rock band formed in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota in 1979. The band's continual members were Bob Mould, Greg Norton, and Grant Hart. Hüsker Dü never acheived mainstream success, but attained an impact far larger than their modest sales figures would indicate.
Mould and Hart split the songwriting duties. Hüsker Dü first gained notice as a hardcore punk band with thrashing tempos and screamed vocals, but also with a melodic, soulful edge that became more pronounced in the band's mid-career as they drifted away from their early sound, becoming one of the earliest and most influential bands in American alternative rock in the process.
