Husker Du is still one of my favorite rock bands. Warehouse Songs and Stories was a very formative album in my musical tastes when growing up. I'm a big fan of Bob Mould the singer. His first solo album Black Sheets of Rain is good dark, moody music without being hard or aggressive. He later formed a band called Sugar that had 2 really good albums (Copper Blue and Beaster) that are well worth looking up. Good American style post punk stuff ala Dinosaur Jr or Pixies.
black flag, the pixies, husker du, minute men. dinosaur jnr, man what a blast from the past, that SST label was the bollox!
