As one-half of the creative brain trust of Hüsker Dü, Grant Hart brought warmth and a sense of compassion to that legendary band's precise sonic assault. Hart's post-Hüsker output, both solo and with Nova Mob, has been sporadic yet solid. Good News for Modern Man, released over five years since the last studio album, finds no dust on Grant's grooves. Soulful, melodic, and richly textured, Hart's ambitious undertaking overflows with creativity, from the Dick Dale-meets-Beach Boys chorus of "Run Run Run to the Centre Pompidou," to the brutal honesty of "You Don't Have To Tell Me Now," to the orchestral bombast that closes "Nobody Rides for Free." As a veteran of one of the most influential bands of the 1980s, Grant Hart ends the century on a high note. Good News for Modern Man is just that. --Kevin Cole
