hart may never shed the that-other-genius-songwriter-from-husker du reputation, but man he did some great solo work. intolerance is as good as anything bob mould released post-husker du.
@AndyWilkinson all that said, i'm a huge bob mould fan too and for husker du i consider him a kind of mccartney to hart's lennon. not in songwriting proficiency or ability or anything like that, but mould was more the heart while hart was the tortured mind; mould was felt, hart thought. obviously an over-simplification, but i think the parallel is apt.

@btener I wholeheartedly agre. Much s I love Bob Mould I do think Grant Hart gets overlooked by comparison.

@AndyWilkinson mould's songwriting tends to be more accessible and pop-oriented than hart's as well, to further extend the comparison.
