Good news for punters that missed out on Bob Moulds sold-out Corner Hotel show on March 13. Tickets for his second and final show at The Corner on March 14 are on sale right now.
After more than 30 years, countless album releases, an autobiography and a tribute concert where the likes of Dave Grohl and Ryan Adams paid homage to him, Bob Mould is still kickin' it.
Bob Mould will dip into his most recent solo outing, Silver Age, cuts from the Sugar classic Copper Blue, as well as a healthy dose of Hüsker Dü tracks for good measure when he hits Australian shores in March 2013.
The powerful and ever-fresh debut album Copper Blue, written and co-produced by Bob Mould, draws on the punk of Hüsker Dü and tempers it with prominent melodies and mature writing. Copper Blue uses the classic three-piece set-up together with a smattering of synthesizer, a touch of harpsichord and a fistful of bite. The album was a blistering success far eclipsing the sales for his previous outfit and was voted Album Of The Year (1992) by NME. Even now Mould still seems pleasantly surprised by its success. “I got lucky,” he says. “It’s one of those records that sounds like it’s 20 years old; it sounds like it’s 50 years old; it sounds like it was made last week.”
