Although he’s currently on the road behind the 25th anniversary of his landmark album Workbook, Bob Mould is cutting the nostalgia short this year: He’s releasing a new album, his second for Merge Records, this summer. Called Beauty & Ruin, it’s described as a 36-minute “compact epic” in the press materials. So fans can probably expect more of the late-career resurgence that made 2012’s Silver Age such an enjoyable listen.
