Those who were fortunate enough to get hold of early Husker Du records during their initial 1980s release schedule surely know the importance of seeing Bob Mould live. After all, the man not only helped create the sound of one of the most important punk-rock bands, but also created an immense body of work both as a solo artist and with his other influential band, Sugar. Body of Song, his latest album, was released in July 2005 on Yep Roc Records. It features some familiar faces, like Brendan Canty of Fugazi and David Barbe of Sugar, and, happily, it’s truly a return to form.
Mould will play Harlow’s, located at 2708 J Street, on Sunday at 9 p.m. Tickets are $12.50 in advance or $15 on the day of the show. Because Mould deviates from his traditional set list on his solo tour dates, I’d expect you’d want to secure your slot now.
