SUGAR – Copper Blue (Reissue) – LP – ‘Citrus’ Eco Vinyl [FEB 20]

Description

LP – Limited Edition ‘Citrus’ Eco Vinyl (2026 Reissue).Sugar was formed in 1992 by Bob Mould (Hsker D) with bassist David Barbe and drummer Malcolm Travis. Their 92 debut Copper Blue blends sharp melodic hooks with raw guitar power.

Copper Blue is the classic 1992 debut album by Sugar. Front man Bob Mould had sung and played guitar for seminal midwest punks Hsker D, openly acknowledged by the likes of Nirvana and the Pixies as a huge influence. Following their break-up and two well-received solo albums, Sugar saw Bob return to a band set-up, signing to the iconic Creation label and scoring indie chart hits with ‘A Good Idea‘, ‘Changes‘, ‘Helpless‘ and ‘If I Can’t Change Your Mind‘. Copper Blue‘s ebullient collection of richly melodic and anthemic songs saw Bob triumphantly reclaim an alternative rock legacy he had helped create. The album went in at number 10 in the UK album charts and was NME‘s album of the year.
