My Take
Bob Mould is one of those musicians I feel I owe a debt to without always realizing it. His work with Husker Du in the eighties and Sugar in the nineties basically laid the blueprint for melodic, distortion-soaked alternative rock that countless later bands quietly inherited. What I admire most is the balance, walls of noise that never drown the actual song underneath. A Macalester-educated, blog-writing guitarist is a delightfully unflashy figure, and I love that he has kept working for decades rather than coasting on legacy. To me he is a foundational, undersung architect of a sound far more famous than his own name.
