Our Take

Bob Mould's "Distortion: 1989-1995" is a rollercoaster ride of noise, melody, and raw emotion that will leave you questioning whether your speakers can handle it. This retrospective collection showcases Mould's transition from the sugar-coated hooks of his Hüsker Dü days to the blistering sonic assault of his solo work.

Tracks like "If I Can't Change Your Mind" and "See a Little Light" blend jangly guitars with heart-wrenching lyrics, while songs like "The Act We Act" and "Hoover Dam" hit you like a punch to the gut with their sheer intensity. Mould's raspy vocals add an extra layer of grit to the already gritty production, creating a sound that is both urgent and timeless.

But what sets "Distortion" apart is its unapologetic commitment to noise. The screeching feedback, pounding drums, and wall of guitars are not just a backdrop, but an essential part of Mould's sonic palette. This is music that demands to be played at maximum volume, rattling your bones and shaking your soul.

In a world of polished pop and predictable punk, Bob Mould is a breath of fresh air. "Distortion: 1989-1995" is a testament to his uncompromising vision and unrelenting passion for music. So crank up the volume, hold on tight, and let yourself be swept away by the glorious chaos of Bob Mould's sonic universe.
