Music Capsule Review

Besides (1995)

Credits

Lead Performance: Sugar; Genre: Rock

By Christina Kelly

This between-records album includes alternate versions of previous releases plus songs that didn't make it onto File Under: Easy Listening. Highlight: ''Needle Hits E,'' a poppy B side from 1992's Copper Blue in which singer Bob Mould pronounces MTV as ''empty TV.'' The bonus (first 25,000 copies only) CD, a recording of an entire Minneapolis show from the FU:EL tour, sucks out the prettiness emphasized on File Under. Bob Mould sounds hoarse and the band seems infuriated by its own catchiness. But Sugar completists will be pleased.
