Artist: SUGAR
Who: The band that Bob Mould formed
after Hüsker Dü split. They made 2 albums
between 1992 and 1995, afterward Mould went solo.

Anniversary album: COPPER BLUE
Released: 4 September 1992 – 30 years ago
Score: Both #10 in the US and the UK

AllMusic: “How ironic that after years fronting the hugely influential but desperately overlooked Hüsker Dü, Bob Mould’s first project with new band Sugar, 1992’s Copper Blue, would become the most commercially successful project of his career… it was released just as the seeds sown by his former band were bearing bountiful fruits in the post-Nirvana alternative nation, which provided ample explanation for its phenomenal success. But Sugar were well deserving of their success, regardless of time and place.” Score: 4.5/5.
