Beauty & Ruin was released June 3 on Merge Records, debuting in the top 40 of the U.S. album chart and generating some of the most enthusiastic praise of Bob’s career, including:
“ageless… unfettered ferocity and humble grace.” — AV CLUB
“Few are better at making smart, hooky rock. The title stands in complete contrast to the joy of blasting the song full volume, and getting the feeling that Mould knows himself better than ever.” – NPR MORNING EDITION
“Mould is on a roll… ranks up there with his catchiest… joyously unconcerned with proving anything to anyone other than the fact that he can still craft hook after hook.” — PITCHFORK
“The former Sugar and Hüsker Dü frontman sounds fully invigorated here… Mould rips through 12 bristling guitar-pop tracks that, at their propulsive and tuneful best, recall the classic eras of his much-loved former bands.” – ROLLING STONE
“It doesn’t feel like a stretch to say Beauty & Ruin scrapes the same eight-miles-high stratosphere as his best work with Hüsker Dü, Sugar, and under his own name… vital music from a living legend – a master class in the sort of gleaming, guitar-powered alt-rock that Mould helped to invent.” – STEREOGUM
Bob and his longtime bandmates bassist Jason Narducy and drummer Jon Wurster will be returning to the road in support of Beauty & Ruin through the fall. The next series of North American dates is listed below.
