Let’s keep this intro short and sweet. One could easily look at Bob Mould’s body of work — Hüsker Dü, Sugar and lots of solo material — and say, ”Wow, what an amazing career!” But Mould is not a guy to rest on his laurels, so music fans are about to get a whole lot more of him this time of year. This being the case, Mould sat down with Goldmine to talk records, politics and why it’s such a critical time to get his message out.
GOLDMINE: I would like to propose that the last week of September and the first week of October be called “Bobtober” with all of the releases you have coming out — a brand new album, a Record Store Day release and an amazing box set. Was this intentional?
