@Studman454 As long as I can listen to them, I don't care if they're mainstream, downstream or upstream. On the other hand, if they lived in China and the Communist Bloc banned them, I would take up arms and go over there.

@platypuswhat Thanks buddy. Now this is one less Husker Du song I can enjoy. Happy freakin Holidays.

for all of you wondering about what the song means:
Up north, the cheapest brand of vodka you can buy is "Heaven Hill" vodka. Its like $8 for a 1.75 liter. The song is about an alcoholic, and watching a friend die to alcoholism.

Best Husker Du lp by a mile!!

@CrazyDan1984 haha all SST musicians except for Sage. I love Kirkwood's playing as well. Up On The Sun and Meat Puppets II are some of my favorites.

@CrazyDan1984 Touche. I take it back.



I illegally downloaded a bunch of Husker Du albums last night but I think I'm going to delete them. It's just not the same as discovering it one album at a time.

this really is probably their best song. its just one of those songs where everything sounds so harsh and in your face, but there is this great melody under it all. who knows what its about either. grant hart is openly gay, so really i cant see it being about a romantic encounter with a woman. either way, fucking classic.
