3.6 greatErwann S. EMERITUS | July 13th 20

Their major label debut. It basically follows the same formula as Flip Your Wig, with a tad less energy and an even bigger focus on pop songs - "Sorry Somehow" typically being the kind of song that would invade the mainstream during the 90s. This record got a lot of shit for how poppy it is. I'd say the songs aren't as strong as Flip Your Wig's, but the production is much, much better. Not an incredible record, but an essential one for Husker Du, and an essential record if you wanna know where alt rock comes from.
