Ex-Hüsker Dü drummer Grant Hart is in Chicago for an in-store performance at Reckless Records Wicker Park 5 p.m. tonight. Hart just released a stellar new double album, The Argument. Inspired by Milton's Paradise Lost and William Burroughs' unpublished short story "Lost Paradise," Hart explores the themes of the two pieces through a broad range of musical styles while still hearkening back to the sounds he and Bob Mould mined for years. with Mould scheduled to play Riot Fest this weekend, this in-store is a must for Hüsker Dü fans. (1532 N. Milwaukee Ave.)
