New Day Rising Lyrics

Cover art for New Day Rising lyrics by Hüsker Dü

Do not underestimate this song. This is the opener to New Day Rising, and it sets the scene nicely. A wall of sound consisting of distorted guitars, breakneck drums, and some from-the-bowels screaming, all building up to a crescendo, then pulling back, then building up again. I love it when the instruments cut out intermittently and the rythm takes over. Sends shiver down my spine and leads magnificently into 'The Girl From Heaven Hill'. No-one but the Huskers could make such a visceral song from shouting and noise. A thing of beauty.
