Bob Mould’s first new album in three years — Silver Age — arrives next week, and the ex-Hüsker Dü frontman today debuted it via a full-album stream at RollingStone.com. He tells the rock mag it’s no coincidence the album sounds a bit like Sugar’s just-reissued 1992 debut Copper Blue: “I wanted to put together a companion piece, something that would complement the sentiment of that album, the aesthetic of that album. I really wanted to celebrate that record, because to me it’s one of my three favorites that I’ve been part of.”
