Bob Mould is secretly one of the most important figures in rock history.
An intellectual punkster. Husker Du changed my Life when I was a kid, in 1984
I concur
It's not a secret. He's incredible.
I´ll never forget him,
No Nirvana, No Foo Fighters, No Green Day, No Blink-182 without him. That’s just off the top of my head too
The image of Bob driving late night from Manchester to London listening to MBV is basically my version of heaven
The amount of bands this man inspired is unreal. A living legend
Foo Fighters, R.E.M., Nirvana, Green Day just to name a few...
@@void0094 Pixies
You wierdos hehe. He didn't inspire Katy or Taylor... He's just another nobody that you nerds admire.
Who?
@@manuele.itriagom.728 katy is an aged reference here. Dua Lipa, on the other hand…..
I could listen to Bob Mould talk about music all day and I know I’m not alone. Thanks Amoeba for inviting a true icon onto WIMB!
Check out his episode of the podcast "turned out a punk"
@@jeffreyvoth4272 I will. Thanks for letting me know about it!
I love hearing him talk about music with My Bloody Valentine playing in the background. My two favorites.
Until he said Foo Fighters. I can only imagine he has a crush on Dave Grohl, bc that band sucks donkey dick.
Was thinking same thing. He put Shoot out the Lights in his bag. I think of Mould as the American Richard Thompson. Both tremendous songwriters and guitarists and amazingly consistent.
He was one of the fastest guitar player in the early scene with Husker Du, that band made enough energy to send a rocket into the universe...
As good as their later albums are, the raw energy that was captured on Land Speed Record has never been duplicated!
Real recognizing real: Seeing Bob Mould talk about MBV and The Armed in the same breath is awesome, all top tier acts. Ultrapop is undoubtedly AOTY material.
REFRACT
Definitely AOTY when it is literally the Greatest Album of All Time.
Bro are you in The Armed??
@@webinfront We are all in The Armed.
refract
"I love innocent, well crafted Pop music." Hell-fucking-yes.
Dua Lipa innocent ? Okaaaayyy...
I remember hearing Copper Blue in a record store when it first came out. I asked the kid behind the counter who it was. I was hooked. I bought everything I could find by Bob Mould. Workbook is a masterpiece.
Black sheets of rain👍
I remember hearing this album for the first time as well. I put my headphones on and just put my cd player on repeat, in the fetal position.
I'm sure I had a couple Husker albums by the time I came across Workbook (I was discovering this all around 1992 or so, during my first couple years of college). Workbook took me to another place and absolutely expanded my horizons with music. The cello playing on that album is outstanding. "Dreaming I Am" is still one of my very favorite Bob Mould songs of all time.
I bought it on cassette back in the day, cracking album.
Thats one of the few albums, that never gets old on you!
Always love to see a legend who's still interested in what's new. He's refracting with the rest of us.
That, my friends, is how people stay relevant.
It's awesome to see an icon like Bob Mould also being blown away by The Armed's Ultrapop. Such a fun, eclectic album that has moments on almost every song that are so audacious that it makes my jaw drop. Just heartwarming to have someone who has been in the industry far longer than I've been alive able to so clearly get excited about new music!!
He’s gotta get to a show. They are so rad live. The first time I saw them is my hands down, all time favorite.
Ultrapop and Only Love are going down as complete classics, just wish they were getting more recognition now
Untitled is also worth throwing in that list too. You can see hints at what they would make with Only Love and then Ultrapop.
The stuff fans did during the ramp up to releasing Ultrapop has had to help. Crowdfunding billboards in a bunch of major cities, including Time Square for instance. I’m pretty sure they had less than 20k-25k monthly listeners back when I found out about them before Untitled dropped, and now it’s 83k for example. The next step is likely shows. I can’t wait to see them again in January. Fingers crossed things improve the world over by then, and all the new fans can get out to see them.
@@hoodieinfestation totally agree on, ‘Untitled’, and was going to mention it, but then saw your comment. Personally, I think it’s absolutely on the same level as far as being just a goddang great album, just as fun as Uktrapop imo, and I may even like it more than Only Love, though that’s not to put that album down, merely it’s to put Untitled on that higher level, even if it may not be as innovative as what came after, or as remembered as being brilliant in future conversations on the band. We shall see, I guess.
@@nikolademitri731 for sure! It’s on equal footing for me too. I love it.
Bob Mould refracts.

Something I learned today
Bob has eclectic taste
I see what you did there with the Zen Arcade opening verse
I love how open minded and up to date he is with newer trends and sub genres
This man is such a living gem.
I grew up in Wisconsin an hour and a half from Minneapolis. You can't understand how influential Husker Du was. I was in high school when Husker was at their peak. It was glorious. Add other Minneapolis bands like The Suburbs, The Flamin' Ohs, and The Replacements....and you had SO much fantastic music to be influenced by.
Bob Mould speaking positively of Daft Punk (my favorite music group of all time), and name dropping Kurt Ballou (I also love Converge a lot) made me so insanely happy.
Bob Mould is so much more important to music over the past 40+ years than a lot of people realize. Love hearing him talk about music
Great to hear Bob considers Pete Shelley an inspiration
Bob should do a metal album and call it "Black Mould".
So wild to hear Bob Mould talk about Loveless. Played that & New Day Rising a million times over the years. Never knew he was a fan. Solid picks all around.
I saw Bob Mould a few times at Cats Cradle in Chapel Hill. He would usually put "Loveless" on before coming on stage
@@dongtan_dude1006 That is awesome!
I remember reading him sing praises about Loveless in Spin ages ago.
@@gamby16a That is so cool. Had that record & Husker Du records at the same time back then. Loved both. Never knew he like Loveless so much. Makes the whole experience of listening to them back then all that more special.
@@stonessonicjournal3181 There's a Sugar song that I can't think of at the moment, that I swear borrows a tiny bit of the melody from "Come In Alone."
Pretty sure when they ask Dave Grohl where the Nirvana sound came from he said "Haven't you ever heard Husker Du?"
Bob is so inspiring. I love all his guitar eras. Even respect him for exploring dance and electronica - he's a true artist and genuine musician
Mould, musical genius, musical god.
Some great picks! Huge fan of Bob Mould - a highly gifted and underrated songwriter
He's sure not underrated here in St. Paul. Quite the opposite, actually.
@@gwts1171 Compared to the likes of Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl, Billy Corgan, Frank Black etc he gets nowhere near enough credit - it's not like Husker Du, Sugar or his solo stuff sold millions of records.
@@latitudepost he influenced all of them, though.
How is he underrated?
@@jeff7764 You don't think he is? Among a small hardcore indie set he may not but to the world at large I think he is very overlooked and deserves more success. I am sure you would agree Jeff
Bob Mould & Richard Thompson? Indeed.
You can see this man knows hell of lot about music and I have admired people who are not stuck in just one scene or style but can enjoy all flavours of rock pop or what ever!!
I think Dua Lipa was the last thing I expected from Bob. What a legend
happy to see it recorded back in the store, not at home
This guy is the God of alternative rock.
Bob and Grant and Greg are the Gods.
Love anyone who recommends My Bloody Valentine and Dua Lipa within a few minutes. Both albums are in my collection too.
Bob, you are one of my music heroes and the fact that you are talking about The Armed just makes me love you more. #refract
I'm also nostalgic about Creation Records like Mr. Mould. I still have my original Creation vinyl pressings of MBV's "isn't anything" & "loveless" also Slowdive's 1st two ep's "self-titled" & "holding our breath". They're still in excellent condition b/c i haven't played those records since 1991. Well preserved in a box in my closet.
EP number two is Morningrise
too bad you never got to listen your albums
Bob Mould is just.an icon. I've seen him twice, once solo and once with Sugar and loved every second. And his book rules! Thank you!!!!
His book veered on the verge of TMI at times.
nobody has ever had such an impact on me in music as much as bob has. he’s my musical hero, and i’m so happy to see him in the next coming weeks. by way of his recommendations, i’ll pretty much listen to all of these albums if i can find them on physical.
Doing old AND new things. That's refreshing and invigorating.
Thank you Bob Mould for turning me on to the awesomest album Ultrapop from The Armed, I haven't been excited like this from new music in a long time.
YAY!! I’m glad we’re back at one of the physical locations; the “HOME” edition really killed the vibe & defeated the purpose of this segment
Looks like I'm gonna be checking out The Armed then. Been listening to Bob for 30 years and he hasn't steered me wrong yet.
What a cool dude. I've got always got Copper Blue in my "bag".
Goes from Dua Lipa to talking about Kurt Ballou's production. What a guy.
He’s up on every bit of the latest underground everything from the last 40 years when most people his age gave up a long time ago.
He's just super cool and such a good taste in music.
That’s not disco. Fake music
I’m glad my dad put me onto Mould’s music. Got to see him live not long ago and man, that was an awesome experience
I didn’t truly discover Hüsker til last year, when my friend left a copy of “New Day Rising” in my car.
Not only do I now hear echoes of them from old Green Day to Title Fight, but their music is SO fucking surreal. I love so much classic hardcore, like DK and Black Flag and that whole list, but I never heard something AS dirty, AS angry, and yet… somehow, RICH with melody that the lofi audio only compliments. Fucking incredible jem of a band.
Agree. Man the production on those records... The guitar sound is like an insult when you hear it for the first time. I love it.
Agree absolutely unique guitar tone
Love Bob Mould. First time I bought New Day Rising in the mid 80s, I was hooked
Never clicked fasted than seeing Mould on here. Great picks too
So refreshing to see someone (my fav artist actually) do the "What's In My Bag?" segment without choosing the most obscure stuff that no-one knows just to appear cool or contrarian. If you know his music, you know he loves pop records just as much as everything he's influenced directly. One of the best!
I saw Husker Du in Chicago in'87 right after the release of Warehouse: Songs & Stories! Great concert!
That album is etched into my soul. I’m so jealous
I love how Bob still keeps up to date with modern music!
Thanks for making mention of richard & lindas Classic shootout the lights! Im a huge fan of em i figure the extra Exposure is a good thing!
Ok huge husker du fan, and now I know why. Me and Bob have, apparently, the exact same taste in music.
Saw Bob do a solo gig at St. Andrews hall in Detroit back around the time his Workbook album was out (excellent album). Just Bob with acoustic guitar. Amazing musician, amazing show. On my list of best show ever.
this kind dude just introduced me to the armed , i am blown away
This was already incredible, but that closing one-two punch of Dua Lipa and fuckin' ULTRAPOP just put it on another level. It's rare one of these actually increases my respect for an artist (taste is taste! liking stuff I like is neat but not, like, _commendable_) but the way he talks about all of these records here is worthy of that respect. Bob Mould rules.
Bob, I caught you and Grant and Greg at the Channel in Boston in the fall of 84, you guys brought it and then some, keep on keeping on ,you get with better and better with age.
Bob Mould is a living legend
Epic episode and picks. Bob Mould is king! Knew he would not disappoint with his choices!
So glad I watched this over breakfast this morning. Now I have a couple new records to listen to and I'm pretty sure they're gonna be really good.
Seeing or hearing Bob always reminds me of the night Sugar blew out the PA at the Riviera in Chicago. The encore (Cheap Trick's "Surrender") sounded like it was coming out of an AM transistor radio. Which made it even cooler.
Bob Moulds first two 'solo' album's (Workbook & Black Sheets Of Rain) were the album's I wore out.Those two albums taught me how to write and arrange tunes.
So I owe you a lot Bob.
Bob rules. No idea he wrote for WCW, somehow makes him even more cool.
He also wrote the Daily Show theme
@@KowankoMusic And called it "Dog On Fire".
@@3rdmm Hahah really? Didn't know that. It's eminently catchy.
Loveless changed my life forever, too! They say that you can’t take it with you, but this one is the exception. Revolver may have to go with me, as well, but if I could only take one I may have to rely on a coin toss.
He looks great for his age! We love you Bob!🤘🏻🤘🏻
I've been a Mould/Husker Du fan since the early 90s. Only got to see him once and it was an acoustic show. He still rocked harder than most full electric bands. The best thing about his music is that his writing style is so distinct that it's immediately clear when you hear one of his songs. Doesn't matter if it's off his electronic-ish Modulate or, say, District Line. It immediately shouts "This is Bob Mould"
I friggin' adore Bob Mould.
Finally Bob Mould!!
Bob Mould is one of my musical heroes.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaassssss Dua Lipa!!!!!! That album is so good! 💿
Love the man. A life changer
That's really awesome, if the Buzcocks were tripping onstage. They never struck me as a particularly psychedelic band, but it makes sense, in an odd way. I love that Bob Mould is still into the old punk rock that he was into as a kid.
I found it funny that Sugar's song Your Favorite Thing always reminded me of "Blown A Wish" on the Loveless Album
Warehouse Songs and Stories was my album, but that Mould also loves Garbage, Daft Punk, and the Foo Fighters says it all. My man.
Saw Bob Mould a few months back on a solo electric show. Was curious to see how he was going to pull it off. Just him a guitar and an amp, cranked to 11 of course. It was so good, if you ever get a chance this random stranger suggest you take it and see him.
LOVE Bob’s work. Very intrigued to watch this one 😁
I just love that he’s not a snobby old dude about music. Thank You Bob
Great episode. I love Bob Mould
Bob Mould is my hero. How great is it, that loves so much music from and the past AND the present. True music lover that can hear the value from avant garde to bubble gum pop. ❤️
What a fantastic, eclectic mix of genres
Bob showing respect to Garbage and Foo - and then tossing Dua Lipa in of all things. What a great episode. Time to put on some Husker Du.
One of my biggest inspirations for sure
Shoot Out the Lights is a masterpiece. I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight is a thousand times better.
That was predictably amazing.
Some really unexpected choices.
Legends a bit of a trite description usually, but utterly deserved in Uncle Bob’s case.
Bob Mould is legend and I loved the Kurt Ballou shout out!
He looks so good and healthy makes me Happy! Still puts on a killer show
Learned a lot of new music watching this...thanks!
Amazed about the fact he's so familiar with chill wave. Great taste in music overall
I love the variety.
Cool that Bob gives the Foos some love. Their first album is basically a Sugar record.
This was great!! Thanks!!!!!
Have you noticed? if you pick the first letter from each of the records Bob chose, a strange message appears:
R
E
F

A
C

Loved him on the Foo Fighters song Dear Rosemary my favorite Foo Fighters song
Thank you, Bob!
I'd never heard that Richard and Linda Thompson record before. It's fantastic!
It's a brilliant record - powerful and visceral
Best guitarist alive today.
@@timyoung6535 That's a bit of a stretch.
See him live and that might not seem like such a stretch.
What a great guy.
The Buzzcocks and a little Ric Flair. Perfect!
Bob Mould talking about Dua Lipa is so bizarre I love it
Such a top bloke. By the way, imagine putting a description of Creation Records up without including Oasis among its bands
Bob Mould appreciating Dua Lipa's music is fricken awesome.
Imagine a collab album from Bob and Dua?
admiro a bob. y nuevamente me demuestra estar abierto a escuchar más cosas fuera del rock, cuando destaca el último disco de dua lipa.
never expected to hear bob mould talk about chillwave. love this guy.
