  • Description
  • Release details
  • Tracklist
  • New Day Rising is Hüsker Dü’s explosive follow-up to Zen Arcade, and it captures the band refining their blend of hardcore punk urgency and melodic songwriting. Released in 1985 on SST Records, the album trades some of its predecessor’s sprawling ambition for more concise, hook-laden songs, without losing the raw emotional power. Bob Mould’s scorching guitar tone and impassioned vocals meet Grant Hart’s sharper, poppier contributions, creating a dynamic push and pull. Tracks like “Celebrated Summer,” “Books About UFOs,” and the anthemic title track showcase their move toward alternative rock’s future without abandoning their punk roots.

    “Raw and emotional but unmistakably tuneful—it’s punk grown up without growing dull.” – The AV Club
