guitarist/vocalist Bob Mould, bass guitarist Greg Norton, and drummer/vocalist Grant Hart.
Influences
Their music shows the influence of folk, 1960s pop music, psychedelic guitar solos and even the blues (often buried under a thick layer of guitar feedback and aggression), with a strong melodic sense.
Hüsker Dü was an influential rock music group from Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota, comprised of guitarist/vocalist Bob Mould, bass guitarist Greg Norton, and drummer/vocalist Grant Hart. Mould and Hart split the songwriting duties. Hüsker Dü was never widely popular, but had an impact much larger than their modest sales figures would indicate.
Hüsker Dü first gained notice as a hardcore punk band with thrashing tempos and screamed vocals, but also with a melodic, soulful edge that became more pronounced in the band's mid-career as they drifted away from their early sound, becoming one of the earliest and most influential bands in American alternative rock in the process.
