Shoot Your Way to Freedom EP

I remember seeing these at Garage D’or back in the day.  All the covers had bullet holes in them.  Hell yes!

The Last Days Of Pompeii

Long out of print LP from the former Husker Du drummer.  I can’t think of many folks with as bad of luck with record labels as Grant Hart.  Just about everything he has done post-Husker’s is out of print because the labels have folded, and The entire Husker Du catalog it tied up in a court battle between the band and SST.  Sucks.

Shoot your way to freedom

Nova Mob was Grant Hart’s post Husker Du band.  I don’t have a lot to say about it.   I saw them live a few times.  I have a few of those old records,  and there were a few songs that I liked (like the title track here), but much like some of Bob’s post-Husker’s stuff, at times you’re hard pressed to see the path he took from Land Speed Record to The Last Days of Pompeii .    Unlike Bob’s solo work, Grant seemed to have really bad luck with his records.  Are any of them still in print?  Do any of the labels exist anymore?  Who knows?  What I do know is that he did have a few really good songs back then.

So once again, while trolling the net I found this posting in some language I don’t read.  However I do understand the universal language of rock, and I recognize that you can get this 4 song EP here, along with some of the other long out of print albums.  Worth your while if you liked Nova Mob or were a fan of Grant’s songs with the Hüskers.
