AUSTRALIAN EXCLUSIVE: Stream Bob Mould's Emotional New Album

Staff Writer

'Beauty & Ruin' could be his most personal record yet

More Bob Mould Bob Mould

Veteran of the music game Bob Mould will officially unveil his new album Beauty & Ruin in a couple of weeks time, but luckily for his Aussie fans, theMusic.com.au has the record streaming in full now.

Beauty & Ruin is being described as one of Mould's most personal and emotional pieces of work yet, particularly dealing with the passing of his father in late 2012.

"It's nobody's story but my own… I ran so fast from my past that I caught up with myself. This album is acknowledging that and dealing with every year getting a little tougher," Mould said of the LP.

Beauty & Ruin is out on Friday 13 June through Merge/Inertia - listen to it now.
