From his early punk tenure in Hüsker Dü to the power-rock propulsion of Sugar to a long solo career, Bob Mould remains a vital figure in the American indie rock scene.

His new album, Silver Age, is his first for Merge Records, a suitable home for the storied songwriter, and it returns Mould to the hazy, explosive, wall-of-guitar that sweetened his Sugar days.

Listen to WFUV's Darren DeVivo's interview and watch Mould's live performance, below, of two songs from Silver Age, the rousing new single, "The Descent" and "Keep Believing," plus an oldie,  "If I Can't Change Your Mind," from Sugar's 1992 debut, Copper Blue.
