Desert Island Band::Hüsker Dü
While I celebrate these punk godfathers' entire catalog, I'll choose their cover of 'Eight Miles High' as a definitive song. To quote uncle Bob: "they've mastered the feat of yoking elemental noise and elemental melody". Surprisingly, it's Mould's vocal that clinches the noise and his guitar the melody; a reversal of the usual strategy. I like to play this loud and on repeat.
