Zach Hobbs :

I am putting this band at the top of my discoveries of 2010 list. It was the year of Sugar and Fluf. How weird huh.

My buddy did a little tour with Grant Hart a few years back and he was apparently a total child. Frowns.

vastagh :

long story short, some friends bumped into him at GonerFest and after some conversation he asked them for my number. we chatted for about 20 minutes on a Friday night. so surreal.

Unitus :

You're going to need to elaborate Andrew.

So since Denny is a personal hero of MINE, what does that make Jon Wurster to ME? Step-hero or hero-in-law? I always get that stuff confused.

vastagh :

way ahead of you schmickle. his work on best show is epic, too. on a side note Tom Scharpling called me on the phone the other day. true story.

wait...whaaaaaaat?

dennyschmickle :

Follow @jonwurster on Twitter. You will not regret it. He is a personal hero of mine.

vastagh :

Wurster is one of the most talented and funniest people EVER. period.

HYNES :

I agree with that dan. I always liked to believe the song differences came down to whiny junkie vs angry alcoholic. also it always sounded like grant hit the drums with chopsticks or knitting needles. i dunno - i made a mix of only the bob HD songs - i listen to it more than the albums

Decabet :

Grant could write great songs, but his voice was just too thin to compare in rotation next to Bob's.
Fun Fact: I saw Mould at Treasure Island last year and he tore through a bunch of Sugar tracks and I thought the bass player looked familiar. It was Barbe. A lil mini-Sugar reunion.
I shot some video of them tearing through "Makes No Sense at All" and "New Day Rising"

While we're geekin out about Huskers etc...
Rule: Bob's songs are, on average, better than Grant's on any given album.
Exception: Candy Apple Grey. Grant owns that album; it's his finest moment. "Don't Want to Know..." and "Dead Set on Destruction" are all-time HD classics. Bobs songs are overwrought and stinky.

HYNES :

Black sheets is a great record - bob was signed to Virgin for six records and wanted to "extricate himself from contractual obligations" They dropped him after this record. I like sugar ok but its not a patch on Husker Du and the solo stuff.

Zach Hobbs :

Dan I just got my CD of Black Sheets of Rain today. Life is good.

Decabet :

BSOR was awesome. Just layers and layers of crunch and murk. One of the best examples of a record cover perfectly representing the music inside.

RisingSon I heart you but you are insane... Sugar was not but a mole on Husker Du's (ample) ass.
I preferred Bob's pre-Sugar solo stuff to Sugar. Black Sheets Of Rain was a real good record that sort of dropped off the radar.

Zach Hobbs :

I am so late to these great bands. I can actually hear the bass on these Sugar albums and the drums don't sound like shit. Is really great songwriting.

Decabet :

Hobbs has taste. First Shudder to Think, now Sugar. I know it's sacrilege, but as much as I love Hüsker Dü, I always thought Sugar were the far better band.

Zach Hobbs :

Love me some Sugar.
