Hüsker Dü: Savage Young Dü (2017)

This was an early birthday present to myself. Amazon was selling it for about half price, and I had to get it. The set cover the band's first three years, and contains Land Speed Record, Everything Falls Apart, and two records containing a bunch of unreleased tracks. The whole thing amounts to a sonic onslaught. Perhaps the best thing about the box set is the hardcover book. It's awesome. It was actually cheaper to buy this box set than to track dow a copy of Everything Falls Apart on vinyl. I couldn't lose.

There were a few limited edition sets that had coloured vinyl and a bonus 7" single, but this works very well for me. I wonder if there will be a part two for the later years.
