Hüsker Dü: Maxwell's, Hoboken, N.J.
Jeff Tamarkin, Billboard, 8 June 1985
VERY RARELY does Maxwell's, the small club that has become something of a local mecca for the new roots-oriented American bands, sell out in advance. Yet the buzz on Hüsker Dü was strong enough to ensure a full house a week before the group's May 9 date there. Why all the fuss over a trio whose biggest selling record has only moved some 20,000 units?
