Label: Numero Group 
Release Date: 7th November

Tell you who had an extraordinary 1985? Hüsker Dü who off the back of career defining double album Zen Arcade and then not missing a beat delivering New Day Rising and Flip Your Wig in the same year, two albums which would be any other acts finest albums is absolute madness. Numero capture the thrill of a band at their creative zenith and loudly becoming the best live bands at the time. Man, these live performances are something else!

Hüsker Dü. Live. 1985. Need we say more? Witness the transcendent Minneapolis punk trio tearing into the most incendiary year of its existence, captured live on stage at First Avenue in perhaps the highest fidelity recordings of the band’s lauded SST era. This 4-LP/2-CD edition includes Beau Sorenson’s restoration of an entire January 30 1985 set, 20 extra live tracks from the year’s touring schedule, and a deluxe booklet detailing twelve months of history-making Hüsker Dü. What is the sound of a legend being written?
