Hüsker Dü - In A Free Land download song

I remember when I used to think this song was called In Opryland

This is awesome! Although I feel the snare isn't loud enough

In a parallel universe Bob goes for women and we're happily married.....*sigh*

The production doesnt show it but Grant Hart's drumming is so amazing on this track. Those quick snare fills! Double time on the ride...beautiful stuff. RIP.

This and Metal Circus are by far the best.

pure nostalgia for me..one of my favorite husker tunes we used to jam out..mastered it on bass 20yrs ago and just relearned it again..timeless shit

FIRST UP TODAY IN OUR CONTINUING HUSKER DU SURVEY IS A GREAT SONG, IN A FREE LAND. This is the title song of a three song e.p. released in 1982. After this we'll continue on with the Metal Circus 12" e.p. Many people have asked how Bob Mould got his signature guitar sound. From comments on this post it seems it's MXR Distortion + pedal + Chorus effect. Government authorize education (Don't mean a thing) They'll teach you what they want you to think (Don't mean a thing) Saturation of stars and stripes (Don't mean a thing) The only freedom worth fighting for is for what you think Why bother spending time Reading up on things Everybody's an authority In a free land

Everybody "on local Facebook groups" is an authority

Their single best song. I’ll fight anyone who says different.

this song is pretty amazing

I'm a massive fan but only discovered them long after their breakup. All albums are good to me but might have been different if I was a fan of the time.

One Of The Best Songs Of The 80's...I'll never,ever get tired of hearing this song!!!!!

Thanks God your parallel universe does not exist Sean, with people so closed-minded as you. That is the opposite to what Husker Du means. Sorry from my bad english, i am from Brazil and saw Bob last nigh live in Rio. In the company of people who loved all the songs he played, including the ones you call "sellou pussy", wich denotate your sad macho persona. Hugs from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

You know what - Joe Strummer would have been very proud to have written a song like this.

Oh my, words can't do justice to how good & relevant this song really is.
