“Pink Turns Blue” live at Camden Palace, 1985
Hüsker Dü - Zen Arcade (1984)
Forty years ago today, on July 1, 1984, Zen Arcade, the second studio (double) album by Saint Paul, Minnesota trio Hüsker Dü was released. A concept album, Zen Arcade over its 25 tracks tells the story of a young man leaving an unsatisfying home life, only to discover the world outside has horrors of its own. Of the album’s 25 tracks, all but two were first takes, and the entire album was recorded in one 40-hour session. Recording and production combined took a total of 85 hours and a cost $3,200. Integral to the 80s indie rock scene, Hüsker Dü’s Zen Arcade has been hailed by some as not only one of the best concept albums of all time, but also one of the best albums of all time, period.

Zen Arcade, Hüsker Dü (1984)
An hour is a long time in the world of hardcore punk. And an hour and fifteen? Practically eternity. There’s a reason most punks stop at half an hour or well short. Fortunately Hüsker Dü’s second LP and opus Zen Arcade is far from straight punk, a record grandly conceptual and vastly diverse, a work driven by rapturous pace and unreasonably high calibres of performance, one that displays tonnes of musical innovation and equal amounts of solid songwriting. A bit like Minutemen’s Double Nickels on the Dime, only not quite as good.
Pick: ‘Something I Learned Today’

ROUND 1 MATCH 58
Gavin propaganda:
“Gavin is the accountant of the arcade. He may seem mean at first, turning down fun ideas that could help the arcade, but he's really helping it in his own way. He sees things from a pragmatic point of view. He doesn't care if that makes him unpopular. He'll do what he must to protect the dreams and happiness of you and all of his friends.”
Zen propaganda:
"Extremely handsome, HES A MUSICAL ACTOR FKFNKSNSJ, deep and relatable family trauma, He's genuinely a good person behind the vainness <3"
