Hüsker Dü - Flip Your Wig LP

The songwriting becomes even more melodic and accessible here, while the playing is ragged yet tight. The production is considerably cleaner and more professional than previous efforts, making it all go down a little easier while losing little of their intense power. And though the lyrics can still sound plenty anguished, the overall tone is far more optimistic, which is fitting considering the poppier music, on which melody shines through more forcefully than ever. Flip Your Wig is another excellent album by a band that steadily progressed in the songwriting department with each album, excellent!
